KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Offensive coordinator Doug Pederson brought up an interesting point this week when talking about Alex Smith's current streak of 305 passes without throwing an interception. Pederson indicated that Smith’s ability to scramble out of trouble may have helped save him from heaving a ball into coverage to avoid a sack.
Smith’s running ability is no small part of the Kansas City Chiefs' offense, interception streaks aside. He’s fourth in quarterback carries with 60, third in yards with 326 and ninth in yards per rush at 5.
