Alex Smith absolutely has to complete the key, clutch passes

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – If Alex Smith is ever going to become a championship quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, he needs to complete passes like the final two throws that he missed in Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

The Chiefs trailed by six points with more than two minutes left. On third and fourth downs on what would be Kansas City’s final two plays, the Vikings gave the deep out to wide receiver Albert Wilson.

Smith on each play had time for the route to develop and to step up and into his throw.
