7 THE LAST TIME Bills 16, Chiefs 10 December 13, 2009 Arrowhead Stadium 68,668 BUFFALO KANSAS CITY Despite 181 yards from scrimmage from RB Jamaal Charles, including an electrifying 76-yard TD run, the Bills held on for a win at Arrowhead. Kansas City s defense forced three turnovers, but the Chiefs committed four turnovers themselves. KC held Buffalo to 73 net passing yards, but relinquished 200 rushing yards in the loss. LB Mike Vrabel registered the game s first big play as he sacked QB Ryan Fitzpatrick on the Bills second possession of the game and forced a fumble that was recovered by DT Ron Edwards at the Buffalo nine-yard line. But the Bills rebuffed the Chiefs scoring opportunity when QB Matt Cassel was tackled on fourth and goal at the one-yard line. On Buffalo s next offensive play, RB Marshawn Lynch rattled off a 47-yard run to set up Fitzpatrick s nine-yard TD pass to WR Terrell Owens giving Buffalo a 7-0 advantage at the end of the first quarter. On the Chiefs next possession, a replay review upheld that WR Chris Chambers was short on third and three from the five-yard line, setting the stage for a 21-yard K Ryan Succop FG that made the count 7-3 in favor of the Bills with 10:25 left in the first half. On Buffalo s ensuing possession, CB Brandon Carr stripped the ball from TE Shawn Nelson and recovered it at the Buffalo 49-yard line, but the Chiefs were forced to punt. Buffalo would score on a 41-yard FG from K Rian Lindell to up their lead to 10-3 before halftime. KC s defense forced the Bills to go three and out on their opening possession of the second half. But on the Chiefs initial play from scrimmage, Cassel was picked off by CB Terrence McGee at the Kansas City 27-yard line. Chiefs CB Brandon Flowers returned the favor, intercepting Fitzpatrick in the end zone. Again, the Chiefs couldn t move the ball after the turnover, and the Bills extended their lead 13-3 with a 24-yard Lindell FG with 3:10 left in the third quarter. On the Chiefs next play from scrimmage, Charles exploded for a career-long 76-yard TD run to narrow the Buffalo lead to with 2:53 left in the third stanza. He finished the game with 143 rushing yards. After a Kansas City punt, Lindell misfired on a 51-yard FG attempt, giving the ball back to the Chiefs at their own 41-yard line. Two plays later, a Cassel pass went off the hands of Chambers and into the arms of LB Paul Posluszny, who returned the ball to the Kansas City 35-yard line. Charles appeared to strip Posluszny on the return, but instant replay was unable to verify that the ball was recovered by Kansas City. On Buffalo s ensuing drive, the Bills were able to register another FG from Lindell, this time from 36 yards out as Buffalo took a lead with 8:01 left in the game. After Kansas City orchestrated a 13-play drive that put the Chiefs at Buffalo s 21-yard line with 3:01 to play, a third and 10 pass slipped through the hands of Chambers inside the Buffalo five-yard line. Cassel s subsequent pass on fourth and 10 was tipped and ultimately intercepted by S Jairus Byrd. Kansas City s defense forced another three and out to give the Chiefs one last possession at their own 27-yard line with 1:00 remaining. Kansas City s final desperation heave was thwarted as Cassel s pass was intercepted by S George Wilson in the end zone as time expired, sealing Buffalo s victory. GAME NOTES RB Jamaal Charles had a career-long 76-yard TD run, tying as the seventh-longest run in franchise history. BUF Owens, 9-yard pass from Fitzpatrick (Lindell kick) (8-92, 3:50).
