Chiefs-Chargers game thread

I like the hurry up. The offensive urgency. More of that.

 

I was so happy that we actually hurried up to avoid the red flag/challenge.

 

I also liked how we didn't just run the clock out to halftime. I understand Smith's limitations and tendencies, but sometimes the lack of push to score at the end of half's had to also be a bit from Reid (which could be affected by his thoughts on the offense and QB). I wish we could have hurried up and kicked the PAT before the review, but all scoring plays are reviewed first, so we didn't get the TD.

I read this on ESPN in their predictions: "In their four-game winning streak, the Chiefs are second in Total QBR (83.0) and first in opposing Total QBR (9.4), so both their offense and defense have been clicking." <a href="http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/189390/nfl-week-12-predictions-bet-big-on-patriots-over-broncos-panthers-cowboys-a-tossup" rel="nofollow">espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/pos...owboys-a-tossup</a>

 

Note that total QBR is not passer rating. It's scaled from 0-100 where 50 is supposed to be average.

 

Of course, the opposition in the four games haven't been the best, but neither are the rest of the seasons opponents. By the time the playoffs come, and expect things to get better to face better opposition.

I literally have zero respect for the QBR rating scale.

 

 

I will say, Alex Smith played one of the best games I've seen him play this past Sunday.

I don't like it either, but so many don't like passer rating either. Just sharing.
