1. Chiefs' Reid remembers a late-season miracle in Philly to make the playoffs

By Jeffrey Flanagan - Fox Sports

"As grim as the Chiefs' playoff odds seem to be, coach Andy Reid has been in this situation before when he was coaching the Eagles.

"I don't remember the year -- there are too many of them -- but it was in Philadelphia and we needed someone to lose against a pretty good team in the last game and it happened," Reid said Monday. "I remember they had the score on the stadium scoreboard before the game and I remember being in the locker room and the place erupted before the game."    READ MORE…

5. Kansas City Chiefs – TeamReport

By Thomas Reuters - Global Post

"Jamaal Charles took the handoff and banged into the middle of the line. The Steelers banged back, first by linebacker Lawrence Timmons, who stopped Charles' progress and then safety Will Allen came up and finished off the play, keeping Charles from falling forward for the first down.

"A touchdown; that's what we were trying to do," said Reid. "Hindsight, you say we probably should have kicked it but I knew a couple things there and I felt like we had a lot on the game sheet.""    READ MORE…
