Kansas City Chiefs offensive captain Alex Smith has labelled teammate Jamaal Charles as "every quarterback and coach's dream" following his five-touchdown performance last weekend.
Charles was the star of the show as the Chiefs racked up over 50 points against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, sealing their post-season spot in the process.
Of the running back's display, Smith told reporters: "Yeah, I've said before, I think the thing that just jumps out at me is that he's obviously extremely talented, but there's so few guys that are out there on the field for all of the situations that Jamaal is out there.
"To have a guy, who is so talented, in the pass game that is still in there in short yardage and goal line just doesn't happen. To be able to have him out there and be able to do so many things, he's got so many different tools, I think it's everybody's dream, quarterbacks, coaches. He's certainly a really valuable weapon for us."
The Chiefs are tied with the Denver Broncos at the top of the AFC West, with both teams sitting on 11-3 records.
