KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The NFL is forever about the next man up and arguably no team epitomizes that philosophy while winning like the Chiefs. That approach was once again put to the test Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. Already utilizing Spencer Ware, the third running back on the depth chart, the Chiefs faced a potential disaster when three starting …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Many years ago at Brigham Young University, Andy Reid played both guard and tackle along the Cougars offensive line. Considering the way Sunday afternoon’s game against the Buffalo Bills went for the Chiefs, Big Red may have been the next guy up on an injury-riddled offensive line. Blockers were dropping like the rain that fell all …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The environment at Arrowhead Stadium rivaled a stereotypical Seattle day: bleak and clammy. The Chiefs’ (6-5) offense contradicted the weather and was red hot for the majority of the afternoon, and Kansas City outlasted the Buffalo Bills (5-6), 30-22. The precipitation and cold weather may have kept some fans home, as Arrowhead was a little over three-quarters …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs suffered numerous injuries in Sunday’s win over the Buffalo Bills.

All-Pro outside linebacker Justin Houston went down in the first half after having …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Chiefs second-year running back Charcandrick West (hamstring) is inactive against the Buffalo Bills.

The Kansas City Chiefs keep rolling along, notching a fourth straight win by defeating the San Diego Chargers, 33-3, at Qualcomm Stadium. The Chiefs (5-5) dominated the game from the onset with a formula that has worked the past month: Punishing defense and ground game. Since allowing 31.2 points per game in Weeks 1-4, the Chiefs have allowed 12.2 points per …
Jamaal Charles unavailable? No problem. Charcandrick West hobbled and in the locker room? Big deal. The Kansas City Chiefs just grabbed the No. 3 running back on their depth chart and said produce. Spencer Ware got his chance in the spotlight on Sunday and with the help of a couple scores from a dominating defense, the Chiefs pushed their winning …
Chiefs second-year outside linebacker Dee Ford suffered a back injury during pregame warmups and is inactive for Sunday afternoon’s game against the San Diego Chargers. With Ford not playing, outside linebackers Dezman Moses and Frank Zombo can fill in as needed as relief for Tamba Hali or Justin Houston. Running back Knile Davis is a healthy scratch for a second …
DENVER – Chiefs running back/returner Knile Davis was a surprise healthy inactive Sunday against the Denver Broncos. But coach Andy Reid emphasized after the game he hasn’t lost faith in the third-year pro. “That’s not what it is at all,” Reid said. “We’re trying to boost our special teams a little bit.” With Davis not dressing, defensive back Saalim Hakim, …
The Denver Broncos were completely unrecognizable, and the Kansas City Chiefs exploited it, dominating the Broncos at home, 29-13. In Week 2, everything that could go wrong did go wrong for Kansas City. In Week 10, everything that could go right did. The game was full of highs and dotted with an occasional low.
