Reid: 'Nothing good to say' about officiating in wild-card loss to Titans

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was left confused and frustrated by the officials several times throughout Saturday's wild-card loss to the Tennessee Titans.

The officials, as has been the case around the league all year, came under heavy scrutiny during the postseason opener, which saw Kansas City blow an 18-point advantage and lose 22-21 at home.

"Listen, I don't really have anything good to say there so I'm just kind of going to stay away from any comments on those guys," Reid said postgame, according to Nick Shook of NFL.com. "Don't want to get fined or whatever. It's not worth it."
