It still doesn't matter to me. You've got a guy who played at a hall of fame level save for a few mistakes, maybe including clock management. And in this case, I can't blame him for closing because he threw a good enough pass to set up a game winning field goal. So in the grand scheme of things, it's seems petty for people to even bring this game up as one of Smith's shortcomings. This is one of the few games in his career at KC that I thought we actually have a QB who can win some playoff games for us.

If you don't remember anything about clock management then you were too stupid to notice.

When we traded for Smith, one of the things that his followers constantly poited out was his game smarts.

Not burning clock is not smart, and had he done so, there would not have been enough time for the Colts to score enough points tot come all the way back.

So, no, it's not petty.

That was a huge factor in allowing that comeback.
