I'll Call Them The Chiefs, For Now

Sunday's win over the 49'ers was a beautiful game.  From the team who's head coach one week before warned us that we should get used to winning ugly, we won pretty.  I really expected a tough game from the 49'ers who looked very good the preceding Monday against the reigning world champs.  Thought was that at 0-2, they would be hungry for a win and needed it to salvage their season.

But surprisingly, the 49'ers came to town flat and the Chiefs took advantage.  Not only did they dominate on both sides of the ball, the head coach showed us his pair by onside kicking in the first half with a 7-0 lead which would have worked had the Chiefs not been off side.  They also confused the 49'ers by quickly running the field goal team off just before a 4th and short, forcing the 49'ers to call a time out, and then did it again after the time out and made the 1st down.  Add to that, a little razzle dazzle play that led to a touchdown when 5 of the 6 eligible players touched the ball that ended in a long touchdown pass to Dwayne Bowe.  Also add the spectacular catch of Tony Moeaki for another touchdown. 

Regardless of whether the 49'ers are or will be a good team this year, the KC Chiefs did everything a good team should do when playing at home.  It was a beautiful win.

  1. The Browns are who we thought they were. The Chargers have been slow starters for years. The 49ers are a team who thinks they are good, but really aren't.

    Wake me when they beat a good team.

  2. 3-0 speaks for itself. I'm feeling pretty good about my 8-8 prediction. How are you feeling about your 4-12 call?
