Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Andy Reid, Kansas City Chiefs head coach:

"It's a long trip. It's a long way to go for a home game, but it was enjoyable. And it's a good result here. So, the two turnovers, the red zone success that we had offensively, third downs, both sides of the ball. I just thought those were positives. Those were things that you need to win games. Now, the Royals have an opportunity tonight to clinch it, so we're pulling for them, too, as we fly home."

SOUNDBITE (English) Alex Smith, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback:

"Yeah, it was good. We needed it. I felt like we put halves together like that, we just haven't done it for four quarters with our foot on the pedal. I thought today was good. As far as the last two weeks, as far as steps of finishing games off, to kind of keep that going, not lose focus, not lose energy, it was good. Especially that second half there."

SOUNDBITE (English) Lance Moore, Detroit Lions wide receiver (on his side's 1-7 record):

"Losing doesn't get easier. If you're a competitor and you've got that fire, you want to win every single time you come out. There's no situation ever that you should be ok with losing."

SOUNDBITE (English) Lance Moore, Detroit Lions receiver (on head coach Jim Caldwell):

"I think he understands how to win. We have to go out there and we have to play better for him. Not just for each other but for our coach. He's a guy that does an awesome job of taking care of us and looking out for us. He doesn't deserve it. We've got to play better."
