I was happy to see the fake punt in an easy game. It might give Andy a little more confidence to try the fake punt in a more critical situation. And it is one more thing for opponents to worry about.
Right before KC gave up the fake punt conversion, I told my buddy they should worry about the fake punt because of field position and them being aggressive. I was annoyed that was more apparent to me than it was to the team.
