On October 5th, 2014, the Kansas City Chiefs faced off against the 49ers in San Francisco. In his second year as a Chief, Alex Smith was to seek revenge against the team that traded him. After a concussion, Smith was ultimately replaced by Colin Kaepernick as the team’s starting quarterback of the 49ers.
Smith and the Chiefs struggled throughout the course of the season, marking the only year that a Chiefs team led by Andy Reid would fall short of the Playoffs. Additionally, this was the infamous “no touchdowns from a wide receiver” season. This game in Week 5 was one of the seven disappointing losses in 2014.
