THE MATCH-UP Perennial NFC powerhouse Philadelphia makes just its third-ever appearance in Kansas City as the Chiefs host the defending NFC Champion Eagles in an interconference showdown at Arrowhead on Sunday. The Chiefs and Eagles both own identical 2-1 records coming into this week’s contest. Kansas City suffered its first loss of the season with a 30-10 setback on Monday Night Football at Denver (9/26), while Philadelphia enters Sunday’s contest after a 23-20 home victory vs. Oakland (9/25). A return to Arrowhead may be the perfect tonic for the Chiefs, who are 13-4 at home dating back to the 2003 campaign. Dating back to the 2001 campaign when head coach Dick Vermeil joined the Chiefs, Philadelphia and New England have been the league’s two most dominant squads, owning identical 50-17 (.746) regular season records, the best marks in the NFL over that span. The Eagles have made four straight trips to the NFC Championship Game and earned a berth in Super Bowl XXXIX, marking Philadelphia’s first appearance in the “Big Game” since Vermeil guided the Eagles to Super Bowl XV in ’80. Ironically, the Eagles remain the lone NFC squad that Vermeil has yet to defeat as an NFL head coach. While Philadelphia owns an NFL-best 25-8 road record dating back to 2001, Arrowhead has been a house of horrors for NFC opponents over the past decade. Since the start of the ’95 season, the Chiefs own a stellar 17-3 (.850) mark against NFC foes at Arrowhead, the best interconference home record in the league over that span. However, one of those losses came at the hands of the Eagles, a 23-10 decision (11/29/01) in Vermeil’s initial season at Kansas City’s helm. Philadelphia is the third playoff squad from the 2004 season that Kansas City has been forced to face in the first four weeks of the 2005 campaign. After a 23-7 win vs. the N.Y. Jets (9/11), the Chiefs claimed a 23-17 win at Oakland (9/18) before Monday’s loss at Denver (9/26). The Jets and Broncos both made the playoffs a year ago. Following their contest with Philadelphia, the Chiefs will enjoy a bye week (10/9) before returning to action vs. Washington (10/16). Up next for the Eagles is a trip to NFC East rival Dallas (10/9). THE SERIES Sunday’s game will mark just the fifth-ever regular season meeting between the Chiefs and Eagles. The regular season series between Kansas City and Philadelphia is deadlocked at 2-2-0 (.500). The Chiefs have won two of their last three meetings with the Eagles, getting victories at Arrowhead in ’92 and at Veterans Stadium in ’98. Philadelphia’s first win against KC came in the inaugural contest between the two clubs in ’72. The Eagles claimed the most recent contest in the series by a 23-10 count in a Thursday night contest at Arrowhead (11/29/01). Kansas City won the lone preseason game in the history of the series, claiming a 24-21 victory at Arrowhead (8/9/79). Kansas City owns a 17-3 (.850) record vs. NFC opponents at Arrowhead dating back to the ’95 season. Philadelphia is seeking to become just the sixth NFC team to win back-to-back games at Arrowhead. The last team to accomplish that feat was the L.A. Rams, who claimed three straight wins at Arrowhead (’73, ’85 and ’94). After their first trip to Arrowhead during the stadium’s debut season in ’72, it took the Eagles 20 years before making a return visit in ’92. No NFL team has experienced a longer drought between trips to Arrowhead. The record for the longest span between games in Kansas City belongs to Washington. The Redskins went 21 years without a road contest vs. the Chiefs. Washington played at KC’s Municipal Stadium in ’71 before visiting Arrowhead in ’92.

THE MATCH-UP Perennial NFC powerhouse Philadelphia makes just its third-ever

appearance in Kansas City as the Chiefs host the defending NFC Champion Eagles in an interconference showdown at Arrowhead on Sunday. The Chiefs and Eagles both own identical 2-1 records coming into this week’s contest. Kansas City suffered its first loss of the season with a 30-10 setback on Monday Night Football at Denver (9/26), while Philadelphia enters Sunday’s contest after a 23-20 home victory vs. Oakland (9/25). A return to Arrowhead may be the perfect tonic for the Chiefs, who are 13-4 at home dating back to the 2003 campaign.

HOME TEAM IN ALL CAPS CHIEFS HOF INDUCTEE, JACK STEADMAN

As part of the Chiefs annual Alumni Day halftime ceremonies on Sunday, Vice Chairman of the Board Jack Steadman will have his name added to the façade of Arrowhead Stadium as the 34th member of the Chiefs Hall of Fame. Steadman owns the distinction of joining Founder Lamar Hunt as the only other individual who has been associated with the Texans/Chiefs franchise since its inception in ’60. Among Steadman’s many notable accomplishments during his tenure with the club – including three AFL titles and a win in Super Bowl IV – it was his persistent lobbying efforts for a dual-stadium concept in Kansas City that eventually led to the evolution of the Truman Sports Complex, a facility serves as a lasting reminder of his foresight.

REMEMBERING HANK STRAM (1923-2005) This season the Chiefs are remembering Hank Stram, who

passed away on July 4th, by wearing a helmet sticker with his initials during the entire 2005 campaign. A member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Class of 2003, Stram served as the franchise’s head coach from 1960-74, compiling a 124-76-10 regular season record and a 5-3 playoff mark. He guided the club to three AFL titles and a win in Super Bowl IV. His many contributions to the game include two-tight end offense, the stack defense and the moving pocket.

REMEMBERING P JERREL WILSON (1941-2005) The Chiefs also lost another link to their Super Bowl IV squad this

off-season when P Jerrel Wilson passed away on April 9th. Wilson served as the club’s punter from 1963-77 and still holds an NFL record by leading the league in punting four times (’65, ’68, ’72-73). A member of the AFL’s All-Time Team, he was inducted into the Chiefs Hall of Fame in ’88.

KC’S INTERCONFERENCE EDGE AT ARROWHEAD

The Chiefs own an NFL-best 17-3 (.850) record in interconference games at home dating back to the ’95 season. KC’s overall 25-15 (.625) record against all NFC foes is tied as the fourth-best mark in the league over that same span. The Chiefs domination of NFC opponents at Arrowhead has been remarkable. In 20 home contests against NFC foes since ’95, KC has outscored those opponents by a 599-to-314 margin, good for an average score of 30.0 to 15.7.

The only three NFC teams that have visited Arrowhead over the past decade and have claimed victories have been Carolina, Philadelphia and N.Y. Giants. The Panthers and Giants were both coming off Super Bowl appearances when they visited Arrowhead, while the Eagles were en route to the first of four consecutive NFC Championship berths when they won in KC in 2001. The most recent NFC opponent to visit Arrowhead was Atlanta, which advanced to the 2004 NFC Championship Game vs. Philadelphia. The Falcons departed Arrowhead after suffering a 56-10 loss (10/24/04).

Andy Reid was named the 20th head coach in Eagles

history on January 11, 1999 following a seven-year stint as an assistant coach with Green Bay (’92-98). Last season Reid guided the Eagles to a berth in Super Bowl XXXIX after leading the club to its fourth consecutive NFC Championship Game and fourth straight NFC East title. In his second season as head coach at Philadelphia, Reid helped engineer the biggest turnaround in franchise history, going from a 5-11 record in ’99 to an 11-5 mark in 2000, the first of five straight 10-win seasons.

Born in Los Angeles, California on March 19, 1958, Reid began his NFL coaching career as Green Bay’s tight ends/assistant offensive line coach (’92-96) under Mike Holmgren. He then spent two seasons working with Brett Favre as the club’s QBs coach (’97-98). With Green Bay, Reid helped the Packers reach the playoffs six straight times from 1993-98, including a victory in Super Bowl XXXI in ’96.

A collegiate standout at BYU from ‘79-81, Reid played tackle and guard for legendary coach Lavell Edwards. He then made his coaching debut with BYU, earning his master’s degree and working as a graduate assistant (’82).

Dick Vermeil was named the ninth head coach in Chiefs

history on January 12, 2001 following head coaching stints with Philadelphia (’76-82) and St. Louis (‘97-99). He is one of just four coaches in NFL history to lead two different teams to the Super Bowl and has twice been named NFL Coach of the Year.

The Calistoga, California native began his NFL coaching career with the L.A. Rams (’69, ‘71-73) serving as the team’s special teams, RBs, and QBs coach and offensive coordinator. During his tenure as head coach in Philadelphia (’76-82), he compiled a 54-47 record. In ’78, Vermeil guided the Eagles to their first playoff appearance in 12 years. He then led the ’80 Eagles to a 12-4 record to earn a trip to Super Bowl XV.

Vermeil returned to the sidelines as the head coach of St. Louis for three seasons (’97-99), guiding the Rams to a 13-3 record in ’99, concluding the year with a win in Super Bowl XXXIV. A standout quarterback at San Jose State, Vermeil served as an assistant at Stanford (’65-68) and UCLA (’70) before taking over the head coaching duties for the Bruins from ’74-75. In ’75, he led UCLA to a 23-10 victory over #1 ranked Ohio State in the Rose Bowl.

QBs Trent Green, Dononvan McNabb Set to Duel in Chiefs-Eagles Interconference Clash by Pete Moris

KC Traditionally Tough Against NFC Foes at Arrowhead Dating back to ’95, KC owns an NFL-best 17-3 (.850) home record in

interconference play. However, two of those losses have come at the hands of NFC East foes – a 13-3 loss vs. NYG (9/23/01) and a 23-10 setback vs. PHI (11/29/01). Since those two losses, KC has posted a 5-1 mark against NFC opponents at Arrowhead, outscoring those foes by a 247-to-68 margin, good for an average score of 41.2 to 11.3. Dating back to ’90, the Chiefs have gone 3-1 against defending NFC Champions at Arrowhead, including a pair of wins against defending SB champions.

Green, McNabb Tough to Beat When They’re at Their Best Chiefs QB Trent Green owns an 12-1 record at Arrowhead as KC’s

starter when he compiles a passer rating of 100.0 or better and owns 15 100.0+ rating games dating back to 2003. Green also owns 20 career 300-yard games with the Chiefs, the best mark in franchise history. KC is 6-1 at Arrowhead since 2002 when Green registers a 300-yard passing game. In his last 20 regular season starts at Arrowhead, Green has posted a 16-4 record, completing 405 of 605 passes (66.9%) for 5,011 yards with 33 TDs and just 12 INTs, good for a 102.3 rating.

Philadelphia is 23-1 when QB Donovan McNabb posts a 100.0+ rating (min. 20 atts.), including a streak of 19 consecutive wins dating to a 48-17 victory vs. Minnesota (11/11/01). That streak includes a 23-10 Philadelphia win at KC (11/19/01) when McNabb compiled a 112.5 rating. The Eagles only loss when McNabb has posted a 100.0 rating or better was a 21-20 setback vs. Arizona (10/7/01). Philadelphia also owns a 11-1 record when McNabb enjoys a 300-yard passing game, including a streak of nine straight wins. The Eagles only loss when McNabb has enjoyed a 300-yard game was a 20-17 OT setback vs. St. Louis (9/9/01). McNabb threw for 365 yards in last week’s 23-20 win vs. Oakland (9/25).

Sack Stats Important in Chiefs-Eagles Match-Up Protecting the passer will be a key for KC this week against a

Philadelphia squad that has racked up an NFL-high 149.0 sacks dating back to the start of the 2002 campaign. Over that same span, the Chiefs have allowed just 83.0 sacks, the fifth-lowest tally in the league. The Eagles defense has registered at least 1.0 sack in 78 consecutive victories dating back to a 24-0 win vs. the N.Y. Giants (12/1/96), by far the longest active streak in the NFL. KC owns a perfect 10-0 mark at Arrowhead dating back to ’97 when it doesn’t allow a sack. Active NFL Streaks, NFL Leaders, Fewest Sacks Consecutive Wins with a Sack Allowed, 2002-05 1. 78 Philadelphia 1. 56.0 Indianapolis 2. 23 Miami 2. 67.0 Green Bay 3. 20 Denver 3. 73.0 Detroit 4. 19 Buffalo 4. 80.0 San Diego 5. 16 Dallas 5. 83.0 Kansas City

KC’s Ground Game is Particularly Potent at Arrowhead The Chiefs have registered at least one rushing TD in 33 of their 36

regular season victories under Dick Vermeil, including each of club’s last 17 consecutive victories dating back to 2003, the longest active streak in the league. Kansas City has registered at least one rushing TD in eight of its last nine games going back to the 2004 campaign.

KC’s ground attack is even more potent at Arrowhead, where the club has won 13 consecutive games dating back to 2002 when it has boasted a RB with two or more rushing TDs. Holmes has accounted for 10 of those games, while RB Larry Johnson has boasted two rushing scores apiece in KC’s last three home games dating back to last season. In fact, Johnson has posted a rushing TD in eight of the club’s last nine outings. The Chiefs are 10-3 in regular season play at Arrowhead when either Holmes or Johnson enjoys a 100-yard rushing game, including wins in eight of the club’s last nine such games.

KC has won 13 of its last 14 games at Arrowhead when the club racks up 125 or more team rushing yards dating back to the 2002 campaign. In its last eight home contests going back to last season, KC has registered 1,275 rushing yards and 21 TDs, numbers that translate into a remarkable average of 159.4 rushing yards and 2.6 rushing TDs per game. In the Chiefs last meeting with an NFC foe at Arrowhead the club racked up 49 carries for 271 yards and an NFL single-game record eight rushing TDs in a 56-10 win vs. Atlanta (10/24/04).

A Solid Performance Needed From KC’s Rushing Defense Kansas City has held two of its first three opponents to under 100 team

rushing yards. Dating back to the 2002 campaign, KC owns a 13-3 record when holding opponents to under 100 team rushing yards. In their two wins this season, the Chiefs allowed a combined 128 rushing yards, or an average of just 64.0 ypg.

KC will need to continue that trend against an Eagles squad that has won 14 consecutive games when topping the 100-yard team rushing barrier. Philadelphia also owns a 16-4 record when boasting an individual 100-yard rusher dating back to ’99, but has gone 15 consecutive games without having a player top the 100-yard rushing mark. The last Philadelphia player to accomplish that feat was RB Brian Westbrook, who had 119 yards in a 19-9 win at Chicago (10/7/04). The Chiefs currently own a streak of eight consecutive games without allowing an individual 100-yard rusher at Arrowhead. The last RB to top the century mark at KC was Carolina’s DeShaun Foster (9/19/04).

Key Chiefs-Eagles Scoring Stats to Ponder Both the Chiefs and Eagles are difficult to overcome when they top the

30-point barrier. The Chiefs are 24-3 (.889) at Arrowhead when scoring 30 points or more dating back to ’95, including a 4-1 mark dating back to 2004. Dating back to the start of the 2002 season, no NFL team has produced more 30-point games than the Chiefs (23). However, the Eagles have allowed just nine 30-point games since Andy Reid’s arrival in ’99, posting a 2-7 record in those contests.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia owns a perfect 27-0 record in regular season play when scoring 30 points or more dating back to ’99 when QB Donovan McNabb joined the club. Defensively, keeping opponents under the 21-point barrier always bodes well for the Chiefs. Kansas City has won 16 consecutive games when holding opponents to 21 points or less dating back to a 17-16 win vs. Buffalo (11/17/02), a mark that ranks as the fourth-longest active streak in the league. The Chiefs have allowed an average of just 18.0 ppg at Arrowhead during the club’s three-game home winning streak.

The Chiefs are even tougher to beat at Arrowhead when they enjoy a strong defensive showing. Kansas City is an incredible 42-2 (.955) at home dating back to ’95 when holding opponents under 20 points, including a 13-1 mark under Dick Vermeil. Since Vermeil joined the Chiefs in 2001, New England and Philadelphia (50-17) are tied for the best regular season records in the NFL over that span. The Eagles were held to 21 points or less in 14 of those 17 losses. Active Streaks, Most Cons. Wins When Allowing 21 Points or Less Team Streak Last Loss When Allowing 21 or Less 1. Indianapolis 28 Games L, 13-21 @ Miami 9/15/02 2. New England 22 Games L, 17-20 @ Washington 9/28/03 3. Seattle 19 Games L, 3-14 Washington 11/3/02 4. Kansas City 16 Games L, 13-17 @ San Francisco 11/10/02 5. Pittsburgh 14 Games L, 10-13 @ Baltimore 12/28/03

Chiefs-Eagles Turnover Tidbits Kansas City is 38-4 (.902) at Arrowhead with a positive takeaway

margin in regular season play dating back to ’95. The Chiefs own a +19 turnover differential (41 takes/22 gives) over their last 21 regular season home games, owning a 17-4 (.810) mark in those contests. Overall, KC is 14-1 with a positive turnover mark dating back to 2003, including a streak of five consecutive wins.

The Eagles have been forced into a negative turnover mark on the road just nine times under head coach Andy Reid, owning a 4-5 record in those contests. Overall, Philadelphia has posted a 35-8 record with a positive turnover margin under Reid. The Eagles are 16-1 with a positive turnover mark dating back to 2003, including four straight wins. Last week the Eagles were -2, but still claimed a 23-20 win vs. OAK (9/25).

Holmes Set to Become “Most Utilized” Player in KC History RB Priest Holmes has touched the ball 1,443 times from scrimmage

(1,211 rushes, 332 receptions), needing just three more touches to bypass RB Ed Podolak (1,445) for the most attempts from scrimmage in KC history. It took Podolak nine seasons and 104 games to rack up his total 1,445 attempts from scrimmage. Holmes has seen duty in 57 games since joining the Chiefs in 2001, meaning he has averaged 25.3 “touches” per game during his five-year KC career. Holmes (1,211) also needs just 36 more carries to move ahead of RB Christian Okoye (1,246) for the most rushing attempts in franchise annals.

Chiefs Adept at Mile High Bounce Backs Dating back to ’90, KC owns a 13-2 record in games immediately

following a contest at Denver. That mark includes a 24-17 win vs. Philadelphia (10/11/92), KC’s most recent home win vs. the Eagles.

The Broncos jumped out to a 20-0 lead over the Chiefs and never looked back, pulling away for a 30-10 victory on Monday Night Football. Both teams moved to 2-1 atop the AFC West standings as Kansas City suffered its first setback of the year. The Chiefs were able to post their only touchdown of the game and on an impressive individual effort by WR Samie Parker in the fourth quarter. QB Trent Green completed six of 11 passes on the drive with the biggest connection coming on fourth and 10 as he found Parker across the middle. Parker then shook a would-be tackler and raced into the end zone. Kansas City ended the first half with an impressive 13-play drive to post its first score of the game. WR Eddie Kennsion, who finished with a game-high eight catches for 112 yards, factored big on the possession as Green found him on four completions for 58 yards. After the Chiefs held the ball for 5:35, K Lawrence Tynes ended the drive with a 28-yard field goal to cut Denverʼs lead to 20-3. Denver took control of the game almost from the outset. After KC won the toss and marched as deep as the Broncos 36-yard line, the Chiefs drive stalled, forcing a punt. The Broncos then took right to scoring on a K Jason Elam 30-yard field goal. The Broncos continued their scoring spree on their second drive as RB Mike Anderson accounted for 49 of the marchʼs 80 yards. He took a handoff over the right side, found daylight and went untouched from a 44-yard touchdown and a 10-0 lead. On Kansas Cityʼs third offensive possession RB Larry Johnson was stripped of the ball on the Chiefs own 12-yard line on a play that was upheld by instant replay. It only took QB Jake Plummer one play and six seconds to find WR Rod Smith in the back of the end zone for a 12-yard TD late in the first quarter. In the second quarter, Plummer orchestrated another scoring drive, this time ending in a 51-yard field goal from Elam, putting the Broncos ahead 20-0. Denver began the second half the way it started the game, but this time finished with a touchdown. The Broncos faced a fourth-and-one from the one-yard line and the Chiefs were ready for the plunge over the top, but Denver had other ideas. Plummer faked the inside handoff and took off around left end on a naked bootleg, outrunning Chiefs LB Kendrell Bell to the pylon for the one-yard score. The touchdown gave the Broncos a 27-3 lead early in the third quarter. The Broncos tacked on another Elam field goal before the Chiefs would find the end zone on Parkerʼs 21-yard score to make the final tally 30-10.

GAME NOTES• QB Trent Green moved past QB Bill Kenney (1,330) for second in Chiefs history with 1,338 career completions.

• WR Eddie Kennison produced his 10th 100-yard receiving game as a member of the Chiefs, moving him into a tie with WR Stephone Paige for sixth in franchise history.

The temperature for kickoff at Arrowhead Stadium was a brisk 35 degrees, but even that was not enough to chill red-hot QB Donovan McNabb and the Eagles offense. Kansas City head coach Dick Vermeil, who led the Eagles to Super Bowl XV, had hoped to get an early jump on his former team, but it was Philadelphia head coach Andy Reid who pulled all the right strings. Eagles K David Akers dribbled a perfectly-executed suprise onside kick to open the game. Philadelphia recovered and turned it into an Akers FG for an early 3-0 lead and never looked back. Before a national Thursday night television audience, McNabb was seemingly all over the field, completing 18 of 26 passes for 269 yards, adding two touchdown passes and ripping off 41 yards on the ground. Three minutes into the second quarter with the Eagles clinging to a narrow 3-0 lead, the Chiefs defense snuffed out a drive at midfield. LB Glenn Cadrez partially blocked a P Sean Landeta punt, but the deflected ball slipped through the arms of CB Eric Warfield and the Eagles recovered on the Chiefs 41-yard line. Two plays later a 46-yard McNabb to RB Duce Staley touchdown pass sapped the energy from the Chiefs and opened up a 10-0 lead. Chiefs QB Trent Green used RB Priest Holmes (76 yards rushing, 100 yards receiving) to orchestrate two five-minute-plus scoring drives. The first was a 14-play, 64-yard march that ended with a 29-yard K Todd Peterson field goal. Green found four different receivers for first downs on the drive but his third down attempt to TE Tony Gonzalez in the back of the end zone was tipped and fell incomplete. Green (21 for 35, 213 yards, one TD), did help the Chiefs find the end zone midway through the third quarter when he hit WR Derrick Alexander on a three-yard strike. Alexander slipped past the Eagles linebackers and tiptoed along the end line to net the score. Trailing 23-10 in the final quarter, the Chiefs had three possessions in the fourth frame, but were unable to score. The final Chiefs drive stalled at the Eagles 19-yard line with 1:12 remaining, essentially ending hopes of a Kansas City rally.

GAME NOTES• RB Priest Holmes had 100 receiving yards, surpassing his previous career high of 98 vs. Tennessee (12/5/99). He became the first Chiefs RB to post a 100-yard receiving game since Todd McNair had 111 yards at San Diego (12/23/90).• LB Marvcus Patton tied a career high with his second career two-sack game vs. Philadelphia, he also tied for a team high with nine tackles (2 TFL).• WR Dante Hall registered a career-long 59-yard kickoff return in the third quarter.
