A Chiefs Franchise

It was a cool, crisp morning at Arrowhead Stadium. Chiefs GM Scott Pioli sat there watching the morning sun rise over the stadium as he pondered who the next coach of the Kansas City Chiefs would be. Romeo Crennel just wasn't doing it, and being a franchise built on winning, he had to go. But... The problem was, who was going to replace him? Scott searched deep into his brain, thinking long and hard on who Romeo's replacement would be. Then, he realized, he wanted to build this team from the ground up. He needed someone who knew the organization and what they were about. Who better then Kansas City Chiefs legend Priest Holmes?

Preseason Transaction Report

-Albert Haynesworth 1 year 2.50 million
-Nick Collins 1 year 3.45 million

Coach Priest Holmes on the signings

"Well, ya'll know I love a zone blitzing 3-4 defense, so we needed a big upgrade at the nose. I like what Albert brings to the table. He has an elite skill set, he just needs to stay focused on football and cut out all the bull**** off the field. Trust me, he don't wanna know what'll happen if he ****s up this time. On the other hand, Nick Collins was a great pickup. We have a weak part in our defense at FS, so Nick was perfect for our D. He did a great job in Green Bay and we're happy to have em' here in KC."

Atlanta Falcons

Kansas City Chiefs

This one seemed like it was doomed from the beginning. First snap of the season and Matthew Cassel fails to even hike the ball, sending them 5 yards in the wrong direction. An awful season opening drive; a delay of game penalty, a solid run by Jamaal Charles, but two errant passes by the erratic Matt Cassel. This putrid opening drive would be concluded with a muffed punt which the Falcons received at the Chiefs' 45 yard line. The bad start would continue when Tony Gonzalez caught a short pass and ran it in for the score, making it 7-0.




After a quiet first quarter, the Chiefs finally strike back with a deep bomb from Cassel to Bowe on a 45 yard deep post. This was set up by the play action, which had to thank Jamaal Charles after a solid drive running the football. This whole drive was started by a beautiful interception by Eric Berry, who saw Ryan float a ball over the middle and made a play.

This game ended up going down to the wire. It was 13-10 when the 4th quarter began, with the Chiefs marching down the field putting up another really strong drive. This drive would be capped off by a 8 yard touchdown scamper into the endzone by Jamaal, who would finish with 21 carries for 129 yards. The Chiefs would go up 20-10, when the Falcons answered right back with a touchdown with only 1:49 remaining. The onside kick would be recovered by the Chiefs, who failed to get a first down to seal the game. Instead, on 4th and 2 kicker Ryan Succop got the call. A 54 yard boot would pretty much finish the game, barring any miracles. And that's just what he did, as the kick just split the uprights, capitalizing a 23-17 win against a tough NFC South opponent.

God, this game was a disaster from the start. It started off ugly, with Matt Cassel struggling with his accuracy. The Chiefs just couldn't get it going, and a pick 6 late in the first quarter would just add to the trouble they were having offensively. All out slaughterfest, not much to write here.

Chiefs lose heartbreaker in N'Awleans!

An all around terrific football game from start to finish. This matchup featuring the Saints and Chiefs was one to remember, and definitely one of the best games so far this season.

The Saints jumped out early, led by Drew Brees' pinpoint accuracy. First and 10 on the Chiefs' 34, Drew Brees dropped back for a screen and threw a laser to halfback Darren Sproles. Sproles made a spectacular leaping catch, and managed to break two tackles on his way to the endzone. The Chiefs would receive the ball on the 20 to begin their rebuttal to the Saints score. First play from scrimmage, and Jamaal Charles is whacked by linebacker Jonathan Vilma when the ball squirted out. The Saints would recover and set up shop at the opponent's 23 yard line. Brees to Graham in the corner of the endzone, and already the Chiefs are in trouble.

But the Chiefs knew they needed to answer. Team leader Jamaal Charles rose to the occasion, wanting to erase the first drive fumble which led to a score. Jamaal Charles carried the load this game, and was the X-Factor all night. Charles would break off a 5 yard run and dive for the pylon, answering back now making the score 14-7. Contrary to the first quarter, the second quarter was relatively uneventful, besides a 45 yard Hartley field goal. That's not the last we will be hearing from Hartley, that's for sure.

Chiefs' head coach Priest Holmes knew this game would be out of reach if he put the ball in Matt Cassel's hands too much. He knew if he wanted this game, Charles would have to run wild. The Chiefs started the half with the ball, and responded to the animosity with a quick 34 yard chip shot from Ryan Succop. A good start to the half for the Chiefs. After a long drive by the Saints, QB Drew Brees tried to throw a laser down field to WR Marques Colston, only to have it picked by Javier Arenas. Now the Chiefs were feeling it, they wanted this game.

After a short two yard gain by Charles, Matt Cassel decided it was time to prove his head coach wrong. Cassel dropped back on the play action and threw a deep bomb down the sideline, hitting Dwayne Bowe right in stride as he streaked down the sideline for the touchdown. A 68 yard cockshot from Cassel. An immaculate throw to tie the game, as time in the 3rd quarter ticked away.

The Chiefs had the ball again on their 45 yard line, when the unthinkable happened. Dwayne Bowe was in double coverage as Cassel rolled out towards the right sideline, when he heaved up a bomb. Dwayne Bowe looked like a hungry animal as he tracked the ball, leaped, and began his trot to the endzone in one fluid, beautiful motion. It was 24-17 Chiefs with 5:00 minutes remaining on the game clock.

The Saints would finally wake up. Clutch catches by Marques Colston and Jimmy Graham really set up the drive nicely, as Darren Sproles ran it in for the score with 1:45 remaining on the game clock. Just enough time for a quick drive, a field goal, and a W for the Chiefs... Or so we thought...

A disgusting 3 and out left the Saints with a minute and twenty seconds to work with, along with two timeouts as well. Without hesitation, Brees started moving the ball downfield, but time was against him. After a crossing pattern to Lance Moore was caught for 23 yards, time was ticking as the Saints had no timeouts. Brees sprinted to the line and spiked the ball with 4 seconds remaining, putting Hartley back in the spotlight, this time to drill the game winner.

Coach Priest Holmes despises the icing of kickers, because basically it's giving them a free kick. He trusted his gut, and didn't ice... But to no avail, Hartley booted the ball and split the uprights. Game over, Saints 27, Chiefs 24 in a heartbreaker.
