\n\t\t\t\t\t\tChiefs head coach Andy Reid said he was \u201ctoo aggressive\u201d and took responsibility after a failed fourth-down gamble gave the Philadelphia Eagles three points in a 20-17 loss Sunday.Facing fourth-and-one deep in their own territory early in the third quarter in a 10-10 game, Reid kept the offense on the field.
