I wasn't able to watch the game live last night, but will catch up on DVR today.

I've only watched through Philadelphia's first TD so far. Main impressions:

1) It's nice to be pleasantly surprised by the Chiefs rather than disastrously disappointed. Benefit of having no real expectations coming into the season, I suppose.

2) The defense is actually really quite good. I didn't believe it would be better than mediocre before the season, and I think the main key is the way Poe has blossomed. But a fully healthy and comfortable Berry (finally living up to the hype, which was considerable) makes a big difference, and Sean Smith has been a nice, solid pickup.

3) I'm still leery about the offense. The OL still looks to be struggling, and Fisher sticks out more than most in that regard. Smith - at least so far in this game, from what I've seen - hasn't show anything more than in the previous two games.

I will continue to be skeptical/doubting of the offense and Alex Smith in general until shown more (and maybe that happens in this game, from the way it sounds). Sure has worked out well with the D, at least!
