Let me make it simple. If you start messing around in a game that you're losing, you might never score. Would it have been better for the Chiefs to score the go ahead touchdown with 14 seconds left on the clock? Of course. Everyone knows that. You're arguing something that isn't in doubt. The Chiefs were taking what the Patriots were giving them. It's possible they could have sprinkled in a few runs. It's also possible they do that and end up turning it over on downs. I don't know and neither do you. The four minute offense is not for screwing around while you're losing. The results were negative for the Chiefs, but that doesn't open the door to criticism of how they scored.
So I emphatically restate my case: If scoring too fast is an issue, you have bigger problems -- like a shitty defense.

Okay Chip Kelly. If that’s your argument
If you don’t understand that balance wins championships in the NFL, I can’t help you. The average NFL fan is obsessed with scoring left and right, and then those very fans are disappointed come playoff time
I’ve been watching Andy Reid since 2002. I love the man, but his style of play has always had one glaring flaw compared to the teams who have actually won it all. Lack of balance. So sure, score fast and exhaust your defense. Then have a million what if’s after
