Larry Johnson and the
Chiefs steam roll Bengals 27-20
Taking advantage of a porous
Bengals defense, the Chiefs
rediscovered all facets of their
offense Sunday in a game not
nearly as close as the final
score might indicate.
All-Pro running back Larry
Johnson picked up 119 yards
rushing and QB Damon Huard found
TE Tony Gonzalez for a pair of
touchdowns that give the Kansas
City tight end the all-time TD
record for his position.
Bengals QB Carson Palmer
threw for 320 yards but hurt his
team's chances with two
interceptions and a lost fumble.
Despite T.J. Houshmandzadeh's
third straight 100-yard
receiving game, Cincy dropped
its fourth straight.
The Bengals needed help on the defensive line but took OLB Keith Rivers instead. He's probably a better fit at on the weak side but the Bengals are so short at this position that he could be the starter at MLB...
The best draft of the day by far, DT Glenn Dorsey dropped in their laps at number 5. Dorsey will be an all-pro for years and can anchor a defense, he was rated the best player on any board by far...
The New York Jets treated the fans who showed up -- and those who stayed awake -- to an overtime victory in their season finale. Mike Nugent kicked a 43-yard field goal, after having a 33-yarder negated by a penalty, 5:13 into the extra period to give the Jets a 13-10 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday...
It was an ugly game, perhaps fittingly for two teams that combined for a 13-game losing streak. The Detroit Lions, though, are not in the position to get picky. T.J. Duckett ran for a season-high 102 yards and a touchdown, helping Detroit hold on for a 25-20 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday and snap a six-game losing streak. Detroit had a 19-point lead in the first half, but the victory wasn't sealed until Chiefs receiver Samie Parker went down on his own at the Lions 30 after getting a lateral with no time left...
Justin Vargas rushed for 139 yards, including a 14-yard scoring run with 9:34 remaining that turned out to be the game-winner, as the Raiders ended a streak of nine consecutive losses to the Chiefs and 17 successive defeats to AFC West foes....
The Denver Broncos manhandled the Kansas City Chiefs 41-7 Sunday, finally playing like the contender they fancied themselves after an offseason spending spree produced a roster that looked like a fantasy owner's dream...
The Chargers entered their game at Kansas City with a 1-4 record on the road. But after getting 177 yards rushing from Tomlinson and eight sacks from their defense, they left with a vital divisional victory and a narrow lead in the muddled AFC West...
The Packers outlasted the Chiefs in an entertaining fourth quarter that saw the two sides trade the lead four times.
Brett Favre made up for two interceptions with 360 yards passing and two touchdowns, including a 60-yard game-winner to Greg Jennings...
