Asnwer this question:
Does Alex smith have a stronger arm than Kessler?

Looking forward to this game. KC has a hell of a defense and Carr, Cooper, Murray and Mack are a lot of fun to watch play the game. Two tough teams.

Yep, not to mention that the Raiders probably have the second best OL in the NFL.

I went to college in KC and was there when Schotty was the coach. I have a soft spot for them (as well as the Bills).
I'd LOVE to see KC go to the Super Bowl this season. I think they have been underappreciated and somewhat forgotten in the Oakland and Dallas love fest. Hoping they win convincingly tonight.

I'm rooting for Smith. Dude was dealt a crappy card in SF. The fans and the SF media were really hard on the guy. Karma is now biting them in the arse.

Andy Reid is so underrated. I can't believe Phily ever let the guy go.

Andy Reid is so underrated. I can't believe Phily ever let the guy go. after what - like 15 years or so , I guess they just got tired of him...It's not like he didn't take them to the playoffs a decent amount and I think maybe a SB? Us fans are pretty fickle!

This is what scares me about Alex Smith. When I watch him in big games he has brain freezes.

Oakland did this last week in their comeback win over the Bills. Mack had a huge 2nd half.

Story of the game was KC's defense playing super bowl caliber and shutting down Oakland in the 2nd half

I heard Al Michales say the Chiefs are now 20-3 in their last 23 games. Upon a quick search, the Browns are 1-22 in their last 23 games.

KC defence was dominant. I thought Oakland shoulda regrouped at the two-minute warning instead of rushing things.

Oakland's O looked like they didn't want to be there for the first 28 minutes ... NONE OF THEM ...
Crabtree looked like he didn't want to be there the ENTIRE NIGHT ...
Carr' pinkie was really bothering him in the cold ... he was by far the mist innacurate I've ever seen him ... had to be the frigid weather and the pinkie not being able to handle it ...

that was a ffun game to watch ... both teams have a shot to get to the Super Bowl IMO ... KC's defense was excellent, and they're tough at home

Yep. That was a very good game.
--Imagine if Smith would have played like Carr did last night? How much grief would he be taking? Instead, Carr gets a pass and some excuses thrown his way.
--KC's defense really is good, though. Good pass rushers and their secondary is awesome!
--Too bad about DJ.
--I would have kicked the FG on the 4th down play that was close to the 2:00 mark. I don't like having to make a 4th down play and a 2-pt conversion back-to-back. Poor odds.

To me, the odds were better to get the TD and the 2-pt convert, rather than kicking a FG and trying to get the ball back with enough time to drive for a winning TD.
Doesn't matter, as it turned out.

Problem is Vers ... Smith has had MULTIPLE games like Carr played last night when he was 100% ...
Carr played like crap ... Carr has a bad pinkie and u know as well as I that cold affects it ...
Carr was VERY INNACURATE last night ... something he hasn't been all year ... Ya, I'm giving him a break after doing the math ... he hasn't been as accurate since hurting it ... last nIght he was HORRIBLY innacurrate ...
I don't make excuses ... i give reasons ... *LOL* ..
