CAN'T GET HIM. SIDEARMS IT FOR A TOUCHDOWN.
YOU THINK YOU HAVE HIM AND THEN YOU DON'T.
AVOIDS THE TACKLE AND THROWS A SIDEARM BULLET FOR THE
TOUCHDOWN. TOUCHDOWN.
>> Kirk: YOU KIND OF RUN OUT OF ADJECTIVES THE WAY HE IS ABLE TO
GET THE PLAY ALIVE. IT IS THE VISION.
THE EYES DOWN THE FIELD. AND THE SIDEARM TO BE ABLE TO
MAKE THE PLAY HAPPEN. HE DOES IT SO OFTEN.
A GOOD JOB. THESE RECEIVERS KNOW.
WHEN HE DOES THAT, FIND THE INSTINCTS AND PHYSICALITY.
>> Al: SECOND YEAR MAN AND PLAYED DOWN THE ROAD IN COLUMBIA
AT MISSOURI. FIRES AND THAT IS INCOMPLETE.
A LITTLE BEHIND PALMER. SECOND AND SIX.
MAHOMES, THEY KEEP HIM IN THE POCKET.

FIRST DOWN. GOT AWAY FROM JACKSON TO PICK UP
THE FIRST ON A GAIN OF NINE GETS A PUSH THERE FROM TREY
SMITH AND BOSA ALMOST GETS DOWN. >> Al: FIVE-WIDE HERE.
FOUR-MAN RUSH AGAIN. HARDMAN, SPINNING AROUND.
TURNS A THREE-YARD-GAIN INTO HE FORCES THIS THIRD AND SHORT.
>> Al: PACHECO. THEY GIVE IT TO HIM.
AND IT DEPENDS ON THE SPOT BUT THE CHARGERS ARE SURE THEY
STOPPED HIM, AND THEY HAVE. TRANQUILL IS THERE AGAIN.
>> Kirk: WELL, THIS IS WHAT COMMISSIONER ON HAND TONIGHT.
ROLLING AND THROWING IS HERBERT. AND THAT IS CLOSE TO A FIRST
DOWN. JOSHUA PALMER.
THAT IS A POWER COUPLE UP THERE. ABLE TO COLLAPSE DOWN.
>> Al: 4:00 UNTIL HALFTIME. SECOND AND NINE, LOOK OUT.
HERBERT GETS IT AWAY BEFORE HE GETS HIT.
THAT WILL BE A FIRST DOWN. JOSHUA PALMER.
WILLIE GAY CAME IN THAT TIME AND THE CHIEFSS.

ACROSS THE LINE TO GAIN. FIRST DOWN LOS ANGELES.

BALL FOR FIVE MINUTES, JUST THE 11th PLAY OF THE DRIVE.
TO THE END ZONE HE GOES. CAN HE ONE-HAND IT IN THE END
ZONE TO MIKE WILLIAMS, YES. MIKE WILLIAMS.

BUT THE LOCATION OF THE BALL GIVES HIM A CHANCE.
>> Al: RIGHT HAND, RIGHT BUTTOCK AS WELL.

HIS PLACE. THIRD AND TEN.

HE BEATS JACKSON. THE DIFFERENCE HERE THEY ALLOWED
HIM TO STEP UP IN THE POCKET. THIS IS ONE-ON-ONE.
HE TURNS J.C. JACKSON, THE PREMIER CORNER IN THE NFL.
HECK OF A ROUTE THERE TO GET HIM TO TURN.
CREDIT THE OFFENSIVE LINE FOR GIVING HIM ENOUGH ROOM TO STEP
UP. PULLING THE TRIGGER.
>> Al: SNAP IT QUICKLY TO NEUTRALIZE THE CROWD NOISE.
LOOK OUT, NEARLY A SAFETY BUT HE GETS OUT OF THE END ZONE AND
CHRIS JONES IS THERE. HE IS A FOODIE RIGHT NOW.

DID THE BALL COME OUT BEFORE THE TACKLE?
MEANWHILE IT IS IN THE END ZONE GROUND.
HE LIFTS HIM UP. THAT IS A BIG MAN.
THROWS HIM DOWN. NOW THE CHIEFS WANT TO GO TEMPO.
THEY ARE AT THE LINE OF SMALLER CORNER, YOU NEED MORE
TOUCH UP IN IF THE AIR. >> Al: THIRD AND GOAL.
SHOVEL PASS. AND IT IS COMPLETE BUT NOT TO
THE GOAL LINE. >> Al: SO THE NEWLY ACQUIRED
RENTAL KICKER SENDS THAT ONE RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE.
WE ARE TIED UP TWO SECONDS INTO EDGE TO THE DEFENSE.

SITS TO THE OUTSIDE. THAT IS WHAT HERBERT SEES.
IT IS THE TOP OF ROUTE. HE THINKS HE HAS A CHANCE TO

UNDER PRESSURE, DARTING AND DANCING AND STEPPING UP IN THE
POCKET AND DOWN HE GOES. >> Kirk: HE WAS HIT AS HE
