>KC has the #1 ranked rushing attack, and is #7 against the run. KC is 25th in passing yards (though Matt Cassel has good numbers right now), because they don't need to throw the ball as often. KC's soft underbelly is the defensive secondary....24th against the pass, due to a young secondary which Rivers will try to exploit. It will be a great game. KC is in a catch-22....if they blitz Rivers often (really the only way to beat him), they expose a fairly weak secondary. If KC doesn't blitz, it gives Rivers the ability to run the kind of play-action and bootleg draws that historically kill KC.
I heard on the radio this morning that the Chiefs' primary receiver has already set the franchise record for TD receptions in a season, previously held by Tony Gonzalez and Otis Taylor, with five games to go. I have not seen the Chiefs play this year but take it he is pretty good.
