Okay this one’s a gimme, but it rings true every single game of every single week in the NFL, play mistake free football.

Kansas City Chiefs Quarterback Alex Smith does a great job of protecting the ball. Yes there have been some slips this year, but for the most part he plays mistake free. Perhaps the biggest area that the Chiefs have struggled with is the fumbles. Ware has lost three fumbles this year alone, a trait he never showed before. That is why you are seeing him hold tightly onto that ball like his life depends on it.

Playing with little or no mistakes could very well be the biggest key, even though it is the most obvious. A team like the Saints always have the home run play just waiting in their back pocket. KC needs to limit blown coverages and missed opportunities to get ahead of the Saints in what should be a tough fought game.

The Kansas City Chiefs have shown they know how to win ball games. This is a winnable game against a hot and cold team in the Saints. While there are many keys to victory for the Kansas City Chiefs if these three are met, this should be a good game against a good opponent.
