    I think the Steelers regret giving up a first down on a third-and-20, too.

    Edit: That leads to a field goal, and the Steelers answer to push the lead to 18-10.

    The Chiefs seem to have adjusted to the run and Roethlisberger just isn't playing well enough to finish a drive.

    The Chiefs did get the memo that they actually have to catch the ball, yes?

    Do they? The old "Alex Smith nearly gets his receiver killed, then is bailed out by a flag" play seems to be getting the job done.

    Steelers gotta lead the league in helmet to helmet defenseless receiver hits, no?

    And does Andy Reid realize his team might need two scores and taking all the time off the play clock isn't the best strategy?

    Andy Reid seems like a version of the Medicine Man guy. He'd find a cure for cancer, but then he'd take a dinner break and manage to burn down the lab.
