Smith has limitations, but he rose to the occasion today. The Chiefs lost their biggest playmaker and Smith put the offense on his shoulders.

And Reid's playcalling in the 2nd half yanked the team from Smith's shoulders.
I blame Reid as much as Sutton and the D for failing to hold the lead.

How many times did Smith throw flares and screens in the second half?
Reid took the game from Smith's hands.

Seriously. The loss of Charles doesn't even need explanation. Coaches are furiously going over blocking assignments on the sideline with Davis. They lose Avery and the Colts defense no longer has to worry about the receiver most likely to hurt them deep.
The injuries change the way the Colts defend, the playcalling, and Smiths timing.
If ever there was an excuse for an offense to stall, KC had it today.
