    Default Thoughts on the game Chiefs 45 Redskins 10

    The GOOD:

    Just about everything. Offense, Defense, and Special teams all pitched in and the sum of these 3 parts equaled the Chiefs best overall performance of the year.

    The mental toughness displayed by the Chiefs team to ignore the elements & go out and play football and this cannot be understated. Especially, Alex Smith, as he had nowhere near the struggles with the inclement weather that RGIII did. Alex played as though it was perfect weather & I'm betting money that if Manning and the Donkeys have to play in snowy weather, they won't be able to hack it.

    Knile Davis getting his 1st rushing TD on a brilliant piece of running. Many considered the selection of Davis to be a draft day whiff, but it might be a Home Run in the not-too-distant future.

    O-Line play was good and Stephenson & Fisher both did a good job against Orakpo and Kerrigan. No sacks given up or any penalties committed by either and the future looks promising with these two young athletic Tackles. Granted, there might be struggles in upcoming games, but to me, both are worth taking the time to develop and let them go through the growing pains to get valuable experience.

    After a month long dry spell, the opposing QB was once again having to deal with fierce pressure & went down 6 times. Granted, the Skins O-Line isn't that good, but ask yourself an honest question -- is the Donkeys O-Line really THAT much better or do they simply get away with holding a lot more often just for Manning's sake?

    Kick returns. The Chiefs just ripped the Skin's guts out in this area. No two ways about it.

    Defense pitched a 2nd half shutout.

    The BAD:

    Chase Daniel. I predict in 2014, he won't be the #2 QB. Bray should pass him by.

    The UGLY:

    Not much outside of Daniel and Cooper getting the wind knocked out of him.

    ================================================== ===================

    BTW, Fasano may be getting back on the field next week and Reid said Houston is progressing with his injury.


    Thoughts?

    But of course, Donkey fans will tell you that Elway & Manning rank 1 and 2 as the greatest QB's of all time. They don't. Number 1 belongs to Joe Montana.
    Manning made it pretty clear from word go he wasn't going to groom anyone, let alone Andrew Luck, which was really sad, considering that was the place that gave him his shot, just like Luck is hoping to get.

    If you put together Manning's and Elway's SB rings together, they still wouldn't have as many as Montana.

    I did see the empty stadium starting at the beginning of the 2nd half & I don't believe I've ever seen the Skins stadium that empty in over 4 decades.
    the fans were throwing snowballs at the skins bench LMAO

    At my house, I turn the MUTE button on the TV and listen to Mitch and Lenny's broadcast on 101.1 FX...At one point you could hear Chiefs fans singing the Tomahawk song over other stuff going on at the sidelines.

    Manning's SB ring is the only one that really counts as being legit. Neither Elway or Manning would beat Montana head to head in a SB and we saw Montana rip Elway's guts out in the one SB where they did go head to head.

    I watched the entire careers of both Montana and Elway, except for the '79 and '80 seasons for Montana when I was in the military. It is totally ludicrous for anyone to make the claim that Elway was in Montana's class & those that do, don't have a clue about what they are talking about. Dallas HOF DB Mel Renfro has gone on record as saying that he would take Montana as his QB if he were building a football team and Renfro played many years with Roger Staubach ( who was also better than Elway ), so that is saying something.

    I just shows you how Elway being given those two SB's has pulled the wool over the eyes of many. The blind leading the blind, cut and dried.

    I read on a skins forum they also threw at McCluster since he was a one man wrecking crew

    Off to Oakland next week and it won't be friendly territory, for sure. Perhaps the Chiefs will play well enough to have Raider fans empty their stadium by halftime the same way we saw Skins fans empty FedEx field by halftime yesterday.

    The Chiefs really need this game, just like they did yesterday.

    I knew the chiefs were coming out swinging for the fence after those 3 losses. Does anyone know if Avery started this game or not? I didn't get to watch any of this game I didn't pay my bill and my t v service is turned off right now :(

    Yes, Avery did start and play. He was thrown to only once and he caught it for a short gain.

    Absolutely! We very much need to close the season out STRONG so that we go into the playoffs riding high. And that starts out with clinching a playoff berth against the hated raiders on Sunday in oakland.
