I expect them to be conservative and to try to win the TO battle this year but monday night was a game called to fit the conditions and I'm glad that Weiss didn't have Cassel chucking the rock in a downpour so that he could toss 2-3 int's and giftwrap the game for the Bolts.

Lets face it, the Chiefs got little lucky. Normally you give a team like the Chargers a 1st down at the 4 yard line, they are going to score.
