So, I get home from church, turn on the TV and the first play I see is Joe Flacco take a snap near the KC goal line, dances around for about a half an hour, without any fear of a KC rush then throws an easy TD to McGahee. I am deathly afraid that this could be a 40-0 type game.

End of halfChiefs: 7
Ravens: 10First half notes: The Ravens have dominated the first half in all aspects of the game except for special teams. Haley has decided to rotate quarterbacks....which is probably not a good idea if you're into creating an offensive flow. I mean, what are we...the Gators in Tebow's freshman year? Their have been two brights spots for the Chiefs: John McGraw, who has accounted for the Chiefs only points and Tamba Hali who has been creating a lot of pressure on Flacco. We are very lucky to be only down 3 points heading into the half.
