KANSAS CITY, Mo. —The Chiefs and Oakland Raiders share more than a 52-year-old rivalry and original memberships in the AFL/AFC West.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Romeo Crennel might look brilliant for installing Kyle Orton as the Chiefs quarterback last week, but the truth can now be told. Crennel was more than a little nervous that Orton's Kansas City starting debut might not go as well as hoped.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Chiefs outside linebacker Tamba Hali is totally consumed by rushing the passer.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Romeo Crennel's first achievement as Kansas City's head coach was inspiring. He guided the previously downtrodden Chiefs past the previously undefeated Packers.

Champagne bottles were popping across south Florida as the Chiefs kept alive slim playoff hopes and spoiled Green Bay's bid for history-making perfection today with a 19-14 victory at Arrowhead Stadium.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —The mania began again last Monday, at least officially. The whispers had already been circling.
The week's dizzying events have the collective mind of the Chiefs in a million places. But the firing of coach Todd Haley and the change at quarterback to Kyle Orton hasn't obscured what's in front of them Sunday.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —It can be difficult to see now, with the season that began with promise having deteriorated to the point where the Chiefs with three games remaining felt compelled to fire coach Todd Haley.
The conclusion that had been painfully obvious to legions of Chiefs fans for some time finally struck Clark Hunt and Scott Pioli Sunday as they watched the season further deteriorate with a blowout loss to the Jets. They would have to fire coach Todd Haley. “This decision,’’ Pioli said, “was going to be made at some point.’’
The would-be bosses waited and waited, ready for this larger-than-life presence to walk finally through the door.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —On their best days, great pass rushers often describe themselves as being in that zone where they simply can't be blocked.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Some thought he was crazy the first time, and maybe that much hasn't changed.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Todd Haley opened his news conference Monday by reeling off some defensive statistics from Sunday's win in Chicago. The Chiefs had seven sacks and three interceptions while holding the Bears to zero for 11 on third downs and zero for two on fourth downs.
CHICAGO — To the rest of the world, Tyler Palko's first victory as an NFL starting quarterback was hardly a work of art. The Chiefs' 10-3 win over the Bears at Soldier Field was far more the product of a tough, gritty defense than any offensive wizardry.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. —He stood in the Chiefs locker room, a stranger, answering questions about how he'll handle the expectation, fair or not, of saving this team in distress.
