The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens, 37-20, in dominant fashion on Sunday afternoon.
Here are some quick notes from the win.
1. Head Coach Andy Reid’s 200th game with the Chiefs was one to remember.
Reid was on the sidelines for his 200th regular-season game as the Chiefs’ head coach on Sunday, leading Kansas City to its 145th victory under his leadership. That mark is by far the most wins of any team in the NFL during that span, leading the next-closest team (Seattle) by a whopping 20 victories.
The Chiefs have posted a winning season in each of Reid’s 12 seasons at the helm, making the playoffs in all but one of them.
2. The Chiefs’ defense held the league’s No. 1 scoring offense to just 20 total points.
Baltimore entered Sunday’s game with the league’s top scoring offense at 37.0 points-per-game, scoring at least 30 points in each of their three games (and dropping 40 points in two of them). That all changed on Sunday, however, as the Chiefs held Baltimore to just 20 total points (and only 13 total points prior to the fourth quarter, when the game was well in-hand).
In fact, Baltimore has been held to 13 or fewer points entering the fourth quarter on just nine occasions since the beginning of the 2023 campaign (including the playoffs), marking a span of 42 games. The Chiefs are responsible for three of those instances, doing so in each of their last three matchups with Baltimore.
Kansas City owns the league’s No. 2 scoring defense over the last three weeks, holding the opposition to only 16.3 points-per-game. The Chiefs still own the top scoring defense in the NFL since the beginning of the 2023 campaign by a wide margin, too.
