49ers vs. Chiefs Quick Hits

Filed under: , , ,

Alex Smith, Ron EdwardsPeople around the league should start taking the Kansas City Chiefs seriously. Apparently, the 49ers didn't and they paid the price Sunday, getting blown out again in Kansas City, where San Francisco hasn't won in 28 years.

Quarterback Matt Cassel brought the Chiefs passing game to life, throwing for three touchdowns, and he was backed by a defense that kept the 49ers out of the end zone until it didn't matter in a 31-10 victory. The Chiefs (3-0) remained unbeaten, while the 49ers continued to search for their first win of the season.

Some thoughts on the game:

o. Less than a month into the season, the Chiefs are one win away from matching their win total (4) for all of last season. Meanwhile, the 49ers, the trendy preseason pick to win the NFC West, better get their act together in a hurry if they want to try to salvage the season.

o. Kansas City's defense was in the face of the 49ers' offense all day, especially outside linebacker Tamba Hali, who had a couple of sacks of Alex Smith.
