... and you are reaching way too hard to put down the offensive contribution.

You should probably look at the play-by-play instead of crediting everything to the QB. |

Not saying the offense is beyond reproach. Just saying that they did enough to complement a strong defensive showing in the 4th... and I know that can't always be the way we win.

Add to that, KC offense did put together a nice drive at the end of Q2 to give our FG try a chance, but the FG try was blocked. Had it gone through, we are tied 10-10 at the half.

He has the defense and special teams giving him and the offense great field position, and they are not taking advantage. Part of that lies with Andy Reid and his play calling, especially on vthose third and short stuations, when he fails to line up and simply smash them in the mouth, which has proven to be a strength when they line up in the I with Sherman leading Charles behind behind Albert.

Those throws, however, are throws that every QB in this league should be able to make. And they were successful because of Smith's accuracy and Avery's speed, and good blocking downfield from Bowe. The primary problem is, the Chiefs should not have needed those clutch throws if the offense had executed more effectively and consistently in the first 3 qtrs. And I am not pointing solely at Smith. Blame falls to the. O-Line and Andy Reid.

Reid's playcalling has to be better, but there's a lot to be said that he has to call plays within the limitations of his QB as well. In too many plays, you don't know what Reid was trying to playcall because Smith misses the read or goes to a checkdown.

And if you have followed along, that is exactly what I have argued.

We ALL want more from the O, but most think that expecting so much more with all of these issues isn't terribly realistic.

An offensive line that had its shit together would solve most of these problems. The problem is those kinds of things don't grow on trees, and I'm not so sure Reid will allow them to get some confidence and grow as a unit the way he never runs the ball. So we're probably going to look like this for awhile. Possibly into next season as well. At least until Reid can find some interior offensive linemen worth a shit who are more adept at doing the things he wants them to do. |

I think Reid could help in this area by keeping Sherman on the field to assist in opening up a lane between the tackles for JC.
