From the Sporting News St Louis reporter
"A more significant factor might be rain, which is in the early forecasts for Sunday at Kansas City. How will Kurt Warner perform in the rain? Will the timing and the cuts be as precise on pass patterns if it's a wet or sloppy turf? No one knows for sure, because the team really hasn't had to play in such circumstances over the past year and a half.
Even disregarding the weather, remember that the team also started 6-0 a year ago, only to stumble outdoors -- on grass -- against an AFC opponent in Game 7. That game was a 24-21 loss to Tennessee.
The Rams proceeded to lose the following week as well, in Detroit, before regrouping to win seven straight before that Eagles loss. Coach Mike Martz has reminded the Rams of that '99 dip, and doesn't want history to repeat himself.
Go CHIEFS!!!
