Offense was awful for sure and everyone gets some blame. Alex was erratic and made more bad throws than I think I've seen since the 2014 opener against Tennessee. But it's not on him -- Maclin dropping four passes, others who could have made plays on throws (even if a better throw should have been made).
Then there's the turnovers: The center causes the first turnover (and the points that made the difference in the game). Spencer Ware commits his first fumble at the end of a fine play. Harris drops the ball for what should have been a fourth fumble. All those turnovers seemed to happen just as momentum was about to gather -- instead the car went completely off the rails.
Bad game. Sucks for the Chiefs to lose to a good team in their house when they could have won if they had only been competent (even without Charles or Houston or our starting Guards). They'll either learn from it and win next week or they won't.
Was happy to see the defense got its stuff together. Feel better that we can hang with anyone and love some of the players we're starting to see really produce.
