[KC Chiefs.com] Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali, who recorded a career high three sacks in last week’s 31-10 win over San Francisco, has been named the AFC Defensive Player of the Week, the league announced Wednesday.
Hali ran his career sack total to 30.5 when he dropped 49ers quarterback Alex Smith three times last weekend in Arrowhead Stadium. Hali and the Chiefs defense held the 49ers to 43 rushing yards and only four of 17 third-down conversions.
He had a great game. Hope he can keep it up.

Congrats Tamba!!! Don’t forget this is only his 2nd season as a DE and playing a 3-4. He will only get better from here!

Why did’nt Smith get credit for the couple of extra sacks he grabbed?

imagine how good this team would be if we still had jared allen. Hali would only be so much better.
