WATCH: Cowboys forgot how to tackle on Tyreek Hill TD

It appeared as though the Kansas City Chiefs would head into the half time locker room down 14-3 against the Dallas Cowboys. But thanks to some timely blocks, some great speed from Tyreek Hill and some abysmal “tackling” by the ‘Boys, that deficit got cut on the last play of the half.

Give Hill all the credit in the world for making that play.

But if you’re the Cowboys, how can that happen? You have a wall of defenders lined up downfield. Sure, the blocking was good. But Dallas still had far more men downfield than Kansas City did.

The Cowboys held onto a halftime lead. But a 14-10 halftime deficit seems far more manageable for the Chiefs than 14-3.
