The team seemed ready with blocks set up for the passes. 4 yard passes that turn into 15 yard gains. Smith knew where to go with the ball. It's a big difference between that and, oh crap! Nothings open! Crap I waited too long! I'll just throw it here, dump off, 2 yard gain tackled immediately. Sure you can stop those short passes, but the Saints weren't, and their press seemed to feel the Chiefs were picking them apart.
We'll see, but my guess is the Chiefs have a plan for if a team tries to take that away from them. This looks like a team with a real offensive game plan and philosophy. Haven't seen that for a while.
