Monday s game will culminate a $375 million renovation project at Arrowhead. The contest will also cap a rare NFL-MLB combination at the Truman Sports Complex as the Kansas City Royals face the Oakland A s at 2:10 PM. Kansas City is making its fi rst appearance on MNF since 2005 and is hosting MNF for the fi rst time since 2004. Kansas City will open the season at home for the fi rst time since 2006 and will host the Chargers on MNF for just the second time in this storied series between a pair of original American Football League franchises. An 86-yard punt return TD by the Chiefs in OT provided a thrilling conclusion to that initial MNF meeting at Arrowhead as KC secured a 29-23 OT victory (10/9/95). Under the guidance of Head Coach Todd Haley, the Chiefs made substantial progress in 2009. The Chiefs improved in 30 different statistical categories and fi nished the year with a 44-24 victory at Denver (1/3/10). The Chiefs led the NFL in Red Zone scoring effi ciency in 2009, scoring on 89.5 percent (34 of 38) of their Red Zone possessions. Kansas City also made dramatic gains over the course of the season s fi nal eight games as the Chiefs averaged an NFL-best 5.2 yards per carry over the second half of the year. Defensively, the Chiefs ranked eighth in the NFL, forcing three and outs at a 24.4% (49 of 201) clip. Playing smarter has been a point of emphasis under Haley. The Chiefs ranked eighth in the NFL with just 84 penalties in 2009 and were sixth in penalty yardage (667) a year ago. As of September 7th, 56.6% of the Chiefs roster (30 of 53 players) owned three years of experience or less, including 10 rookies. That rookie class features a seven-man 2010 draft class, six of whom were season captains for their fi nal collegiate season. In total, the Chiefs added 16 new players to their roster in 2010. Based on ages as of September 1st, the average age of the Chiefs 53- man roster is 25.9 years old. San Diego enters Monday s contest owning an 11-game regular season victory streak. The Chargers have won on their last three visits to Arrowhead, but haven t won four straight games in Kansas City since accomplishing the feat from 74-77. Up next for Kansas City is a road trip to Cleveland (9/19), while San Diego is home vs. Jacksonville (9/19).

All 50 of those victories against San Diego have come in regular season play. The only teams the Chiefs have defeated more frequently are Denver (53) and Oakland (51). San Diego owns a fi ve-game win streak in the series, its fi rst fi ve-game winning stretch against the Chiefs since 87-89.

Of the 458 teams that won openers since 78, 243 (53.1%) went to the playoffs and 142 (31.0%) won division titles. Of the 458 teams that lost openers since 78, 102 (22.3%) went to the playoffs and 60 (13.1%) won division titles. In 2009, teams that qualifi ed for the playoffs went 51-21 (.708) in division play.
