4 Kansas City Makes Its Debut at Lincoln Financial Field by Pete Moris Chiefs Make a Rare Road Trip to Philadelphia The Chiefs will make their fi rst appearance in Philadelphia in 11 years, playing for the fi rst time at Lincoln Financial Field. Kansas City s last visit to Philadelphia resulted in a win at Veterans Stadium (9/27/98). KC s last two wins in debut appearances at new NFL venues have both come against NFC foes. KC claimed a win at Arizona (10/8/06) in the Chiefs inaugural visit to University of Phoenix Stadium. KC s most recent victory against an NFC East foe came by a count at Washington (9/30/01) in the club s debut at FedEx Field. While it s been 11 years since the Chiefs last visited Philadelphia, it doesn t hit the list of the longest active dry spells between visits to an opposing city. Last week, Tampa Bay played in Buffalo for the fi rst time since the Bucs entered the NFL in 76, snapping the league s longest drought entering the season, meaning the 21-year span between visits to Washington by Pittsburgh ranks as the longest active streak. This week the Colts will play at Arizona for the fi rst time since 90.

Tennessee was the last AFC squad to register a win on the Eagles home turf, notching a victory (11/19/06). Eagles Quarterbacks Career Stats vs. the Chiefs Three different signal callers on the Philadelphia roster have combined to post a 5-1 record as starters in their previous meetings with Kansas City.

7 THE LAST TIME Eagles 37, Chiefs 31 October 2, 2005 Arrowhead Stadium 78,742 PHILADELPHIA KANSAS CITY Kansas City started quick against the Eagles, jumping out to a 17-point lead before the visitors knew what hit them. The Chiefs would push their advantage to 24-6, however the rest was all Philadelphia as the Eagles stormed back for a win. QB Donovan McNabb threw for 369 yards and three TDs and Philadelphia converted four Kansas City turnovers into 24 points en route to the victory. RB Priest Holmes got Kansas City started on the Chiefs first drive, touching the ball on seven of the team s nine plays and scoring on a three-yard TD dive. A 38-yard field goal from Lawrence Tynes put Kansas City up 10-0 late in the first quarter. On the ensuing kickoff, CB Dewayne Washington stripped Eagles return man CB Roderick Hood and the Chiefs recovered at the Philadelphia 27-yard line. QB Trent Green would then hit WR Eddie Kennison for an eight-yard TD pass as the Chiefs grabbed a 17-0 lead. Philadelphia finally cracked the scoreboard when CB Sheldon Brown intercepted Green and returned it 40 yards for a TD. The score remained 17-6 when the Eagles two-point attempt failed. Just when it looked like the Chiefs might be losing momentum, WR Dante Hall took the stage. On the ensuing kickoff, Hall raced to a 96-yard touchdown. Hall s score gave Kansas City a 24-6 lead and tied an NFL record with his sixth career kickoff return score. However, it was the last the Chiefs would see of the momentum. The Chiefs suffered a costly fumble just before halftime to shift the flow of the game. The Eagles gained possession near midfield and a McNabb-to-Owens seven-yard TD pass cashed in the turnover and gave Philadelphia life. The Chiefs defense held Eagles RB Brian Westbrook to just 15 yards in the game, but the McNabbto-Owens combo was too much. Philadelphia got a 44-yard field goal before passes of 30 and 28 yards to Owens set up a three-yard TD pass to TE Mike Bartrum. The Eagles tied the game at after a successful two-point conversion. The Eagles regained possession and rattled off a nine-play, 71-yard drive that resulted in the go-ahead 37-yard field goal. Trailing by three and still fighting, another Chiefs fumble handed the ball back to Philadelphia at the Kansas City 25-yard line. McNabb would find TE L.J. Smith open in the end zone just moments later for a lead in the middle of the fourth quarter. Philadelphia would tack on another field goal before the Chiefs offense added a late 15-yard TD pass to Hall as Kansas City closed the gap to with 1:24 remaining. When the Chiefs failed to recover the onside kick, the Eagles ran out the clock for the victory. GAME NOTES RB Priest Holmes surpassed RB Ed Podolak (1,445) for the most career attempts from scrimmage (rushes and receptions) in Chiefs history. WR Dante Hall registered his 10th combined kick return TD (kickoffs and punts), moving him into third in NFL history.

12 THE LAST GAME Raiders 13, Chiefs 10 September 20, 2009 Arrowhead Stadium 69,169 OAKLAND KANSAS CITY In typical Chiefs-Raiders fashion, a tight game came right down to the wire as both clubs scored TDs in the final three minutes. Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell orchestrated a nine-play, 69-yard drive that was capped by a five-yard TD run by RB Darren McFadden with 1:07 left to play as Oakland registered a victory at Arrowhead. The Chiefs dominated the contest statistically outgaining the Raiders in total yards by a 409-to-166-yard margin. Kansas City held the ball for 38:39 compared to a 21:21 time of possession for the Raiders. The Chiefs also had over a two-to-one edge in first downs (25 to 11) and rushing yards (173 to 67). The contest started on a positive note for the Chiefs as QB Matt Cassel made his first regular start after a knee injury kept him out of the season opener. On his first possession, Cassel found newly-acquired WR Bobby Wade for 16 yards, keeping Kansas City s drive alive. Facing fourth and two from the Oakland 40-yard line, head coach Todd Haley elected to go for it, and a three-yard rush by RB Jackie Battle kept the chains moving. Kansas City penetrated to the Raiders 13-yard line, but couldn t convert on third and nine, setting up a 23-yard K Ryan Succop FG that capped a 17-play, 74-yard drive that ate 9:25 off the clock and gave the Chiefs a 3-0 advantage. Kansas City s defense forced a third consecutive three and out before the Raiders mounted their first serious scoring threat of the game. QB JaMarcus Russell connected on an 18-yard pass to rookie WR Darrius Heyward-Bey and found RB Michael Bush for a 17-yard gain to propel the Raiders. However, Oakland was forced to settle for a 48-yard FG by K Sebastian Janikowski to tie the score at 3-3 with 4:45 left in the second quarter. With time winding down in the first half, the Chiefs once again appeared poised to add to the scoreboard. Cassel guided the club to the Oakland nine-yard line, setting the team up with first and goal. But the Chiefs were out of timeouts and RB Dantrell Savage was tackled in bounds on the half s final play, thwarting a golden scoring opportunity. The Chiefs received the ball to open the second half and Cassel had the Chiefs on the move again. But that momentum was short-lived as a Cassel pass was picked off by Raiders S Michael Huff. The Raiders gained one first down before their drive stalled, setting up a 54-yard FG by Janikowski to give Oakland a 6-3 lead with 8:33 remaining in the third quarter. Two possessions later, Huff would once again victimize Cassel, this time intercepting him at the six-yard line. Oakland would again be forced to give it back to KC. A steady Chiefs drive brought them to the Oakland 29-yard line, then Cassel went deep down the left sideline where WR Dwayne Bowe hauled in a 29-yard TD. Cassel s first TD pass in a Chiefs uniform highlighted a nine-play, 72-yard drive that gave Kansas City a 10-6 lead with 2:38 remaining. Oakland took over on its own 31-yard line and drove to the Chiefs 14-yard line with 1:17 left. McFadden caught a nine-yard pass then added a five-yard TD run to punctuate a nine-play, 69-yard drive putting the Raiders ahead with 1:07 left in the game. The Chiefs regained possession at their own 20 with 1:07 left and all three timeouts remaining, but Cassel was sacked on third and one and his fourth down pass fell incomplete, allowing Oakland to run out the clock and take home a victory.
