our longest drive in the 2nd half was 3mins and 5 secs, and 6 plays...

welcome to a pete thread...

and no mention of Smith missing another wide open td pass in the first half?

The Chiefs just need to get back to 3 and outs in the first half so the opposing teams D is worn out by the 4th quarter and then they can put the game away.

It's a marathon, not a sprint!

Going into the game, only the Jaguars had given up more sacks. Spin it however you want.

Weeden took 21 sacks in 210 pass drops. Having a statue hold the ball in the pocket all day will account for sacks.

We are second in the league (Behind Denver) in net points. So we are scoring by a good margin above our opponents, even with the two 16-17 games.

I'm just waiting for week 9 of "we can't win with Alex Smith"

I think you raise very valid points.

However, I'd just like to know what expectations were for this team at the beginning of the year?

Did anybody think this team would be 8 and O? No.

And who in their right mind (if you know any football at all) would expect an O to pickup a new offensive system and be a full throttle at any point in the 1st year? It was Joe Montana himself who was quoted as saying it takes 3 full years to fully learn the WCO. Yeah, what does he know.

You can't even have all the players you want to run this O after only one offseason for godsakes. And yet the team is still unbeaten.

Can always get better and they will but please stop with the O sucks and Alex is the worst. All he does is win games.

Bye the way this is not directed at this thread in general but I just had to rant and I already know were this thread is headed.

Anyyone that thinks this offense is struggling because of a scheme change is a moron.

This offense is struggling because the O-Line can't block and Alex Smith is misssing wide openreceivers.

Charles is still a beast and Bowe isn't any different than he's been the last ****ing decade...

There are targets open on nearly every play.

He doesn't look at all of them...

Yay, another pete thread. LMAO

Damnit, beat me to it. LMAO

If only we had Kyle Orton, this offense would really hum.
