It's very difficult to overcome that kind of talent loss at a position group. Reid did them no favors by not even trying to run the ball and making the KC offense one dimensional. They only ran 17 times and 5 of those were Mahommes scrambling, so only 12 designed runs all game long. TB was free to tee off all game long.
Gotta remember a big part of what they consider to be their running game are short passes/end arounds. They did come out at the start of the 2nd half and ran more.
The TO's at the end of half that KC too were criminal and determined the game, imo. They weren't doing squat and even if they got the ball back it would be with 30-35 seconds left and probably around their 15-20 yard line. They weren't throwing the ball downfield so they should have just gone into halftime feeling really lucky to just be down 8 points.
