text: Poke fun all you want.  The Chiefs are going to win some Lamar Hunt Trophies and Lombardi Trophies at some point.  Alex Smith threw an interception into the end zone near the end of the game and the Steelers ran it back out for about 30  yards to kill any chance the Chiefs had of getting into the AFC Championship Game with the Patriots last January.  Smith says he was ordered to force the pass in and get six points.  The Chiefs rolled the dice and lost.  Smith has been kicking himself over it and may be the impetus for the good start to this season.  The Chiefs are 5 and 0 but I wouldn't grade their overall performance up to this date any higher than a B grade.
  
  The last time the Chiefs played in an AFC Championship Game was about 25 years ago when they lost a close game to the Bills.  Jeez, the hallowed Broncos went 17 years recently without winning a Lamar Hunt Trophy.
