On Sunday, the Chiefs lost quarterback Alex Smith and
running back Spencer Ware to concussions. They also lost left guard
Parker Ehinger to a knee sprain. The last time they played there – their
45-44 wild-card loss in 2015 – they lost five key players to injuries, including three to concussions.
The Colts haven’t been spared either. They lost two players
Sunday to concussions – cornerback Vontae Davis and right tackle Joe
Reitz – and also had six players on the 53-man roster listed as out
prior to Sunday’s game.
All of which led to several
Chiefs fielding an obvious question afterward – is there something up
with the FieldTurf surface in Indy?
“It’s a fast
surface, it’s a thin surface,” Chiefs safety Eric Berry said. “It’s not
the thick turf that you’re probably used to seeing.”
Berry
added that while it’s not old-school Astroturf – which was basically
like playing on concrete – it’s about as close as you’ll get to that,
these days...

This is what the parents want. Just ask the Booster Club.
