MINNEAPOLIS – Down 16-10, the Chiefs were driving late in the fourth quarter with a chance to take the lead on a touchdown. Tight end Travis Kelce put the Chiefs on the Minnesota Vikings’ 43-yard line after hauling in a 37-yard catch, but the wheels came off on the next play. Running back Charcandrick West, who drew his first career …
The Kansas City Chiefs looked like they went to a party, woke up hungover and still had to show up for work the next morning. That look didn’t work for them, and the Chiefs (1-5) lost, 16-10. Kansas City has lost five straight, the longest losing streak since the Chiefs lost eight straight games in 2012. A lot of things …
KANSAS CITY, Mo – Make no mistake about it, the bottom dropped out of the Chiefs 2015 season on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium. The 18-17 loss to the Chicago Bears told us plenty about this year’s Chiefs, as they’ve now lost four straight, are 1-4 and slipping deep into the land of AFC pretenders. But what hurt even worse was …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The worst fears surrounding running back Jamaal Charles and the Chiefs without one of the NFL’s top running backs are potentially coming true. “Preliminary reports, it probably looks more like a torn ACL than anything,” coach Andy Reid said Sunday during his postgame media session. “He’ll have an MRI on it tomorrow and we’ll see how …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Chiefs are reeling after losing three straight games and sit alone at the bottom of the AFC West division, where the Denver Broncos (4-0) continue to rule supreme. Instead of panicking entering Week 5, the Chiefs (1-3) prefer to view the past four games as the first quarter of a 16-game campaign. The team’s focus …
The Kansas City Chiefs couldn’t contain the Cincinnati Bengals’ offensive or defensive prowess en route to third straight loss after an embarrassing 36-21 defeat at Paul Brown Stadium. The Chiefs (1-3) were kept afloat singlehandedly by kicker Cairo Santos, who scored every point for Kansas City in the game with a team-record seven field goals. Without Santos, the outing could …
Chiefs coach Andy Reid isn’t one to talk a lot during press conferences even when he is in a good mood. Now imagine what it’s like when Reid is in a bad mood. Reporters got a taste of that disposition following the Chiefs’ 38-28 loss to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Monday Night Football. A visibly upset …
The Kansas City Chiefs looked completely discombobulated for the second straight week in primetime and the Green Bay Packers rolled their way to victory, 38-28. Granted, the second half compared to the first half was reminiscent of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, but the transformation wasn’t enough in the end after the Chiefs (1-2) failed to complete a two-point conversion. …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The sports cliché of “talent and opportunity” applies to second-year wide receiver Albert Wilson. The 5-9, 200-pound Wilson has the talent to succeed in the Chiefs offense, evidenced in the final four games of the 2014 season where he posted 12 catches for 209 yards to lead all Chiefs wide receivers during that stretch. That four-game …
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – In an offense that hinges on running back Jamaal Charles and tight end Travis Kelce, improvement by the Chiefs wide receivers this season might not be evident in statistics like targets or catches or receiving yards. Kelce leads the team with 164 receiving yards on 10 catches in 11 opportunities, and Charles has produced 48 yards …
