I think it's a combination of things...

Anyway, there was little "checking down." We threw it down the field, just as we did last week, and just as we did in the second half against the Vikings. And this is what we did last year when Huard was 6th in the league in yards per attempt.

Rashean Mathis is a top 5 corner. I continue to believe the biggest need on the whole team is for a receiver to put opposite Bowe who can get consistent separation and make big plays. We're too easy to defend without that. It would be even better if the guy could return kicks a la Santana Moss or Randle El.

But no matter what happens in the game, losses are always because the playcalling is too conservative. Always. And this is not just in KC - this is everywhere. According to fans, 90% of all coordinators in the NFL are too conservative. Why do these coaches spend an entire lifetime breaking down film and game planning? They should just read message boards and know that the answer is always to install the run n shoot.
