Are any of you surprised how quickly KC has adopted the no huddle offense? This is something I thought Alex could do with us.

I really wanted them to do this! But with a huge OLine it's hard to play speed ball. Am not surprised at all that Smith can do this effectively...probably loves it! If I remember correctly, Smith did this a lot under Johnson.

It's far too often that we hear the term "game manager" thrown around, as it usually has more to do with a team's defense and running game rather than a quarterback's ability to actually manage the game. Alex Smith (+3.3) will certainly don the label if this season continues as is, and he certainly resembles the most common definition given the Chiefs' recent reliance on defense and short passe — but to win in the NFL the QB must make some throws at some point, and Smith did just that on Sunday. While his aforementioned interception was a poor throw and he was saddled with another one on a drop from RB Jamaal Charles, it was his ability to move the chains in key situations that stood out. After completing only one pass beyond 10 yards in his previous game, Smith excelled at the intermediate (10-19 yard) level on Sunday, completing 8 of 12 passes for 161 yards and two touchdowns. Perhaps the throw of the game was his pass to TE Kevin Brock at the 9:07 mark of the fourth quarter. With Kansas City on a potential game-sealing drive, a penalty had them backed up for a 1st-and-25. Smith immediately erased the deficit with a beautifully placed pass up the seam in between four Giants. The pass was a perfect microcosm of this game for the Giants, as every glimmer of hope seemed to disappear quickly, and Smith's efficient afternoon was a big reason for their inability to mount a comeback.

this chief team looks and plays alot like the 2011 niners though reid likes to throw the ball more
do the chiefs only have 2 run plays--stretch right and stretch left....they could really use a power back to complement charles (peyton hillis got cut, and i know he didnt leave chiefs on good terms...michael turner might be good for 5-10 carries a game)
that cornerback cooper looked real good for chiefs--where did he come from?
the smith critics often overlook the more subtle aspects of his game if you ask me----one thing is he is pretty mobile, and his pocket awareness has improved greatly since he enetered the league---the buying of time before hitting mccluster for 5 yards on 3rd and 5, and another play lynch noted where he made 1 step up in the pocket to find room to throw and complete another 3rd down pass, are a couple examples.........
also his play action...the play fake and pass to the 4th string te was primo
speaking of tight ends, seattle made a mistake dumping mcgrath--he has looked good
Not sure I agree with this one. They intended on keeping him. Unfortunately the Chiefs had room on their 53 man. We already had Rogers, Brown, Asomugha, Cox, Brock, and eventually Eric Wright. He wasn't making our 53 man roster. I think it's proof that our front office has more talent than the NFL will allow us to have . Get used to seeing talented guys we draft go on and do well for other teams.
i think you can give a roster spot to a prospect like cooper instead of keeping 5 inside linebackers (nate stupar)

That's a very good TD to Int ratio but the rest is pedestrian. Wins are obviously the most important though.

How do you know he didn't?
Anyway we should be very satisfied with a pair of second round picks.
