The Chiefs Win; Beat Steelers 27 to 24 in Overtime

Live this one up Kansas City Chiefs fans! The Chiefs beat the Steelers in over time!
This is easily the Chiefs best win since the 2006 season.
I'm jumping up and down! CHIEFS! CHIEFS! CHIEFS!
Here are some quick post game thoughts I've been putting together:
The Good
- Hello Andy Studebaker! The former sixth round pick had two picks of his own against the Steelers. The second one went for 94-yards and a near touchdown.
- Jamaal Charles, while not putting up huge numbers, is such a clear advantage over Larry Johnson's lazy style of running. Charles rushed for
- Speaking of Jamaal Charles, he topped the play of his career last week with a kickoff return for a TD to open the game. Even if Charles is only able to add plays like that a few times a year, those plays can win games for the Chiefs. Again, a huge advantage over Larry Johnson.
- Thank you for Chris Chambers. He'll be invaluable as Dwayne Bowe sits. Too bad he hurt what appeared to be his shoulder on his big catch on the Chiefs' tying drive.
- Improved play calling against the Steelers. Even a few plays that nobody expects goes a long way.
- In the fourth quarter, Mike Brown holding on to Ben Roethlisberger's jersey on third down while the rest of the Chiefs' D jumped on the QB was huge. It may have been the play of the game.
- Derrick Johnson's fourth quarter sack was amazing!
- Jovan Belcher made a HUGE play on over time when he stopped Rashad Mendenhall on the outside for a three-yard loss.
The Bad
- The Chiefs almost sacked Ben Roethlisberger that it was frustrating. The Pittsburgh QB almost magically escaped the Chiefs' pass rush at least a half dozen times. Even one sack could have made the difference between a punt and a score.
The Ugly
- The Chiefs pass protection, as usual. The Chiefs gave up 5 sacks to the Steelers.

Heh.
You were a very careful and courteous driver. :o)
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
Way I See It
It’ll stay parked for the rest of the year. I figure an increase in wins plus a win over the defending SB champs is sufficient improvement to merit him keeping his job…for now. :)

You'll change your mind by Tuesday afternoon. Not to worry. :o)

Nah
If it had been a win over the Browns as his third, then maybe…but I think a win over the Steelers with this team was a demonstration that he can get them playing better than their talent level.
I will also say that I hope we can continue to see a more subdued Haley on the sidelines as we did during Pittsburgh. I thought the game management was improved and that happens when your coach has his head in the game instead of focused on bitching out players on the sidelines. Not saying he should become Herm…but I think this team performs better once he lets off on the choke chain a bit.
By the way, the stats don’t really reflect it, but I thought Cassel did an outstanding job.
Moderator - Arrowhead Pride
Well one thing you have to say about Haley...
the Chiefs have mostly mistake free football. Players may drop balls, and they may line up out of place occasionally, but they don’t make a lot of penalties and they really haven’t turned the ball over either. I think that says a lot about Haley. So if this continues, I think it will be very interesting to see how they play for him when they are more familiar with the system, and have better players to run the system.

No Kidding
Jamaal didn’t have the greatest game ever, but he’s a lot better than ol’ 2.7 would have been.
Moderator - Arrowhead Pride
DEFINATELY better that 2.7
Heres an interesting tidbit..
Larry Johnson..week 2..vs the 29th ranked run defense..24 carries..78 yards, 3.25 average..against a team that allows 155 yards rushing per game.
As we know, against Oakland, Jamaal outdid LJ when he had his chance in week 7. But heres the real interesting note..
Jamaal Charles..week 11..vs the 1st ranked run defense. 17 carries, 58 yards, 3.41 average..against a team that allows 69.3 rushing yards per game.
JC..against the best run defense in the league..out did LJ’s performance against the #29th ranked run defense.
I'll Be Curious To See What Johnson Does For Cincinnati In His Stint
I’m expecting more of the same, even though they’ve got a pretty decent o-line.
Moderator - Arrowhead Pride
I cant help
but thinking about that also!
Honestly, I dont think LJ will do shit with his decent OL..but I cant say it would surprise me if he does well.
But if I had to bet on it..I’d definitely say he’ll just be “more of the same” like you said.
So far
LJ has 2 carries for 5 yds with a long of 8 (then a loss of 3). Sounds about right…
He's Washed Up
People can blame the line or the playcalling or whatever, but he’s been in pronounced slide ever since the end of the 2006 season. Herm broke him and age is finishing him off. Even a good o-line can’t compensate sufficiently for when the ability’s just not there.

It was ugly as hell
But it’s a win and YES this year we ARE better than last year’s Herm’s team
is it me? or isn't about time the Lamar Hunt trophy belonged to His team?
This Chiefs team is closer to a new expansion team than it is a playoff contender, your expectations should match that.
SCREW THE HATERS
To all of you who have doubted haley and pioli so far screw you guys. We have won 3 out of our last 5 and just beat the defending superbowl champs. I will never lose faith. Keep it up Coach Haley and Scott Pioli. Were headed in the right direction.
That sucks bro

No lie. After talking about whether the big men buy in, that hold came at a crucial time.
But the Chiefs were much less penalized than the Steelers.
\cough\ Sign of good coaching…
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
It was only natural to think they'd get better down the stretch.
The way they’ve been plugging in personnel, though, it’s a real credit to the talent acquisition guys, the new players, and the coaches.
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
I actually called Direct Tv
on Thursday to cancel my subscription (all of it, not just Sunday Ticket) and the guy talked me out of it, and I was mad.
This makes it all worth it.
I’ve already watched the end of the game 3 more times lol.
Wow!
Predictions for 2009:
The Chiefs will regret cutting LJ
Bowe's numbers regress due to lack of decent QB play.
The D gets better in the second half but still is plagued by big plays
Cassel looks more like the guy Pioli almost cut in the '08 preseason instead of the franchise QB he hoped he would be when he traded him for
Chiefs 3-13
Wow
Haley really deserves A TON of credit.
I am so amazed at this win.

My fiance is a pitt. fan.
She was very nice when Pitt was mopping KC in the second quarter. It was really hard not to rub it in when the chiefs pulled it out. A few shouts, a few fist pumps, and a huge smile on my face. Too bad about Big Ben and Chambers; I hate that people got hurt, but man, what a game.
Don't rub it in...

DJ played a TON today.
He was up and down. Couple bad misses (but who didn’t today), but stepped up on several occasions, least of which was the bullrider sack.
"I don't know if I want to go to New York. They'll have to pay me a lot more money because I like it here in Kansas City." -- Roger Maris
Negated by defensive hold downfield.
Still impressive.
Main thing I don’t like about his play is he seems clueless about where his help is, and where HE should be in relation to his help. Misplayed relative to Mike Brown’s position at least twice that I saw, one of which going for an easy 6.
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
He's a yo-yo player.
Made some eye-catching plays, but his play is fundamentally unsound, imo. Doesn’t know where he’s supposed to be in relation to his teammates. By this time in his career, even with a new DC, he should have MUCH better awareness of his assignments. When he has no confusion, he’s a superior athlete. When he blows it, he’s a superior athlete giving up the easy first down or touchdown.

But I am super amped even if I missed most of the game because all my feeds sucked and only caught the OT! IT WAS WORTH IT!!!
And everyone (including myself) thought this was a sure loss...
Haley has redeemed himself. This team needs a lot of additions in the offseason (o-line), but you cannot say these boys didn’t play with heart today. WOW! I have waited all season to see this…just because you’re inferior in talent does NOT mean you cannot compete.
I AM SO PROUD OF THE CHIEFS!
What a game
for Andy i am so happy for him especially since it was his first career start. JUST WISH HE HAD A LITLLE MORE GAS IN THE TANK ON #2!!!!!!!!

I have to give DJ credit
I’ve been a bit hard on him at times lately and he wasn’t perfect today either (who is?) but he made a few really big plays.
He caught my eye more often by his blunders, quite frankly.
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
I would tend to agree
Just trying to stay positive today. We can pick things apart later in the week. Right now I just want to enjoy the win. :)
Heh. Uncontested comments take on a life of their own in these blogs.
Next thing you know, there’s a groundswell for something that makes no objective sense. APers tend to let little go by unvetted for veracity.
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
Fair enough
Overall, I’m disappointed in DJ. He’s shown he has the ability to take over games but he just can’t seem to consistently put it all together.
For every big play (that sack was awesome, even if it didn’t count) he seems to make two or three mistakes, ranging from missed tackles (I saw at least one) to not covering his man properly, like the TD play.
i call that the teabag sack
That was amazing

Wow….earlier I posted how it was the same old pathetic Chiefs and they we`re clueless…..How wrong could I be at the final whistle? That second half was full of determintaion and gritt and they hung in there til the end. I still thought they we`re going to lose in OT but we`re proud of the Chiefs fightback! Then they stepped it up and pulled of an unlikely win!
That was by far the best game I`ve seen them play in years. There we`re no weak links in the second half and they fought for each other….the play calling got better….well done EVERYBODY…..bloody awesome!!!!

Completely impressed
Guys made plays all day long, never got down , and fought their asses off. Haley called a pretty good game, I cussed Cassel for holding the ball too long a few times, but overall played very well.
We won the turnover battle, only had two penalties, and I think the Chiefs conditioning showed in the second half. Even Clancy gets some kudos for keeping the pressure on Ben….Great friggin game…..the best game I have watched in yrs….
That game ,ladies and gentlemen, is WHY we love this soooooo much!

Once again..
the game wasn’t televised here in San Diego. But…they won! So that is good. Maybe the team is turning the corner, although I saw our defense gave up over 500 yards, that isn’t good at all…
They were set up to allow those big plays, but PIT had to play a risky style.
Luckily (by design), they were able to capitalize on enough miscues to win.

Overlooked props go out to Mike Brown and John McGraw and an underrated defense
I know Brown this year has been the whipping boy around here but thats two excellent games in a row and he’s looked like what we expected of him.
John Mcgraw is more known as a grocery bagger then a football player around here but when he’s been healthy, to me, he’s been excellent. He flies around the field and is probably the surest tackler on the entire team.
And to the underrated defense where the stats dont truly tell the story. We are young and learning and succeptable to big plays but you can see the potential here. When they needed to dig in they did.
Also honorable mention, the 4th/OT was the most solid playcalling ive seen from Clancy all year.

Oh He's Tough
His line and pass protection sucks and he’s prone to making bad errors though. And when your QB throws for almost 400 yards and your team still gets beat by a 2-7 squad, I’d say that they can’t say it was the QB who was the problem. Steelers’ issues today stemmed from o-line and running game. Probably more o-line.
Moderator - Arrowhead Pride
It's a high-risk-to-QB style of play that PIT has pulled off many times in the past.
Those are the breaks. What’s miraculous is how long he lasted withOUT a concussion (or neck stinger or both? – Seemed like he had some tingling in his fingers, the way he was acting).

Yeah, I'm assuming it's the Big Ben bias.
Cassel needs to pay his dues to whatever club Rothlisberger, Brady, and Manning are in.

Cassel
Do you think part of the reason he takes unneccsary sacks, holding the ball to long, is due to the fact that he knows one negative play for this offense probably ends a drive?
I'm going to go with no.
Because a sack can often be just such a play. Not as bad a a pick, but still not good at all.
I think part of it could be the receivers
Gannon made a comment at one point about how the Chiefs receivers didn’t seem to get a lot of separation.
Just takes the sacks it seems like.
He’s not immune to it as we’ve seen, and did today with the fumble.
He did fumble it in Pittsburg territroy today.
So he has had a turnover, just not made costly stupid mistakes that we are used to having. haha
right
i was thinking more of those stupid trying to make something happen and throwing a pick…. but yeah you’re right haha
Yeah.
I’m not sure if fumbles count against their rating, so that might help too.
Im sure Cassell
would be the first to tell everyone that he could care less about the rating if their is a W after the score in the paper on Monday morning haha.
It was a good win
…the Steelers played them like it was going to be a walkover. The Chiefs have their flaws but they have some decent parts. Cottam and Pope at double TE give you a little more blocking. The receivers are improving. DJ was well utilized. Charles is a playmaker and Cassel is a poorman’s Big Ben…

Ben, had good stats,
but we didnt give up the BIG play….which has killed us in every game so far. No big runs, no 6 yrd td passes….
Exactly,
and like I keep saying, when we aren’t picking up 4-6 yards on first down we don’t win. Cincy beat us while giving up 11 plays of over 10 yards on first down, but we had very few 4-6 yard gains on first down, and eventually you miss on those 10 yard plays.
Without consistent yardage and big plays we move down field and then get a turnover or just miss on throws and the drive is done. Arians tried running more on second and long to mix it up, but we still couldn’t turn third downs into firsts often enough to win. Give credit to your coaches, that was a good game plan. It looks like people are starting to figure out how to exploit our weaknesses.

It wouldn't've been close if we'd've only kept Pollard
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
Just caught the tail end
something about UCrawford getting a game ball…
This is my signature line. It is full of awesome and win.

Finally.
Finally evidence that Haley can coach. He made half time adjustments and got the offense going. Finally we can see that there is a plan. Mad props to Haley and Pioli. Stay the course. Today was evidence that WE CAN DO THIS! The ship is turning around freinds. Confidence and morale will be HUGE in the coming weeks. This win today is big. real big. Ginormous even. This could be the turning point. Who’s next? SD? Bring it on!
It's years like this that I wish I was a bear. Hibernation would make it so much easier.

Watching the Bolts, right now, in an apparent beat-down of the Broncos.
For my 8-8 minimum prediction, Chiefs are in must-win situation from here on out. Virtually have to win out.
Mixed feelings about SD-DEN game… Is there any way they can BOTH lose this game?
No question. Otis Taylor should be in the Hall of Fame.
Yeah.
Hey, they could always tie right?

i've been one for about 20
and i agree completely.
for some reason THIS is the game that finally made me feel like the chiefs are changing course.
Oh, BTW....
Chambers will be ready to stick it to SD. 4 months ago, that game looked bad on paper. The situation has changed now though…

usually by this time i've drowned out my sorrows and am thinking about sunday night football
and yet right now i’m thinking about charles taking it to the house on the first play of the game
When I watched Chambers 61 yarder in OT...
I was mad that Pope, i think, was just standing there….then realized it was because the guy he was blocking was laying on the ground at his feet….good block.

I didn't notice that. I just thought he'd given up on the play.
But the camera angle was from the KC endzone, so I think it likely Pope was, by that time, 20 yards behind the play ANYway. Thx for the additional pair of eyes, woodman.

I think that is the case anyway....Im sure it will be on NFL Replay this week...hopefully.
Don't forget to be an AP-vangelist...Tell A Friend...
Yeah
the guy Pope was blocking turned his back to him so Pope let up so the ref wouldn’t mistakenly call a block in the back. He did a pretty good job on that play.

Ohhhhh it may be someone else im thinking of...
Someone near the sideline, i think, had a guy on the ground…
Don't forget to be an AP-vangelist...Tell A Friend...
Same event
just that was the continuation, the guy laying on the ground with Pope backing away!

Ahhhhh...
Just saw the guy was enormous…and Pope is that.

Wow!
I am hoarse, drained and proud. I teared up a little at the end of the game. Finally, a real football game. I would have been proud even if we had lost.
Is it safe?
Hey everybody....just a reminder...
We just beat the defending Super Bowl Champs…

I was watching the game at my aunts surprise party
I was going nuts as Chambers ran down the sidelines! may have ruined the surprise!
Man, my bro and I hugged
at the end of the game. This is the best win we’ve had in years. I’m so happy right now.
Not looking forward to the debbie downers, though. (Whitlock et al)

My favorite play that i saw....
Was Derrick Johnson’s sack when he held on to Big Ben with another guy in between them. Too bad there was a penalty on the play cuz it was GREAT!
Hey, want to congratulate you guys from BFTB.
Nice win. You guys are really improving and I’ll be more afraid of y’all than Denver come next year.

Can we PLEASE draft Ali Villanueva of Army this year??? I'd mortgage a kidney for a tackle/wideout hybrid.
