KC to punt. Nice return by Darnell Jenkins. 10 yds? But penalty on the play...

Texans ball at their own 23.

Wow. Turk fumbles and runs for the first down so Kubes puts Orlovsky back in when he had pulled him for Grossman.

Turk's punt rolls out at the KC 24.

Thigpen scrambles for a 1st down...

Illegal use of the hands penalty gives KC the ball near the Texan 30.

Buster Davis personal foul - hit the QB running out of bounds.

KC's ball at the Texan 9.

That was an ugly series but I don't really care. Point proven. No matter the final score, we won the game when it mattered.

KC's coach Haley was talking about how important it was to win exhibition games (when you are coming off a two-win season) so expect KC to try to pull this out at the end, even if it means bringing back some starters.

Parsons and Richardson have been looking really young today.

really young. I hope for our sake they are not vying for spots on the team starting week 1.

Chiefs go 3 and out and punt.

Texans ball at their own 34. About 2 minutes left in the game.

Texans down the punt at the KC 24.

KC moving the ball - nearing midfield. About 40 secs. left.

Pressure from Parson causes backfield fumble - KC recovers.

Pittman intercepts on 4th down. Should be a wrap...

Texans kneel away the clock.

Final Score:

Texans 16, Chiefs 10


Some good, some bad and a lot of sloppy (literally)....

Not too shabby a prediction, if I do say so myself.

I love that Bawin got that sack against KC's #1 pick last year and 2nd year starter, Brandon Albert. That little fake spin move he did locked Albert's legs all sorts of up as we saw. Definitely a created sack, not a hustle sack.

Barwin impressed. Brown was that just a tease or can you do that all year for 16 games? The Secondary has me a bit worried.

Okam, nice to see ya big man. Jacoby Jones is on thin ice.

Casey looks like a player, not sure about the other TE Quinn. Dreesen should have a slot.

Postgame writeup.
http://www.inthebullseye.com/archive/2009/20090815.html

Pretty satisfying game for a preseason opener. I keep trying to remind myself that this is the Chiefs, who are opening a new era, with new leadership, a new quarterback, and a new defensive scheme. Even though this came on the road, the weather conditions removed the fans from the game, making it almost a neutral field.

But enough realism. Schaub went 7-7! Barwin got a sack! Okam was effective! Chris Brown walked off the field healthy! Hooray!

btw, fwiw, Grossman was apparently pulled due to a hamstring injury, not because he looked like ...well... Grossman.
