Pats fan view on KC game

I did not sleep on KC at all. Some things I thought of before game, was surprised by a player, and had an "That's right! He was there in 04' too!)

- I figured if Pats get ahead by more than one score, KC is screwed. While I think Smith played really well, actually very well, the dude just cant connect on a play for more than 20 yards frequently enough to make a comeback.

- If you told me Jason Avant had only 4 catches once the game was over, I would have said no way, double it. Every catch he made tonight was a highlight play. Not that I think he's going to be a stud or relevant in fantasy or real world, but kudos.

- "Why aren't they calling timeouts?" " I'm not even a KC fan and their clock management is pissing me off!" " WHY THE bleep ARENT THEY CALLING TIMEOUT???" Then I remembered...Superbowl in 2004, I said the EXACT SAME THING when Andy Reid as the coach of Eagles. Horrible time management. They burned the game clock from 2:30 to 2 minute warning without calling TO, running a play, spiking the ball. Then ran a play after warning, and 30 seconds off game clock again on next play. You're down by 14, on the 5 yard line, 2:30 left on the clock and you got 2 plays off?

Edelmen with a case of the drops in his first game back. This happens with receivers from time to time when returning from a long layoff. The waste of time at the end of the game was incomprehensible. The KC players were not acting like they were down 2 scores taking their sweet time getting to the huddle and the coaches wasted far too much time getting the plays in. Conley and Wilson both stayed in bounds near the sideline when they should have stepped out. Not getting a play off with 22 seconds left before the 2 minute warning was indefensible. Just a complete lack of awareness by the players and coaches.
