Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid shared a general disappointment Monday following KC’s 30-21 road loss to the Buffalo Bills: His team’s offense wasn’t as sharp as it needed to be when facing a top opponent. “We can do better as coaches of making sure our guys can be put in positions to do better and to maybe back off a little bit on certain things that we’ve been doing,” Reid said Monday, “to help the players out so that they can play a little bit faster.”

Following a rewatch — and meeting with his coaches Monday — Reid hinted that the Chiefs would be looking into simplifying parts of the offense. Specifically, Reid said his team might start to use motions and shifts less before the snap while hoping to declutter the operation.
