JOSEPH, Mo. -- It doesn't take a passionate Kansas City Chiefs fan to know they have a pair of Pro Bowlers at outside linebacker in Tamba Hali and Justin Houston and that they drafted another pass rusher in the first round this year in Dee Ford. Hali had plenty of praise for yet another edge pass rusher, this one far more unsung. He's Josh Martin, who joined the Chiefs last year as an undrafted free agent from the Ivy League.

Tight end Anthony Fasano made a great catch in the end zone where he spun to catch a bad throw from Smith and still got his feet inbounds. ... Receiver Kyle Williams made a diving catch for a touchdown on cornerback Chris Owens in the end zone and was slow to get up. He might have had the wind knocked out of him. ...
