KANSAS CITY • As the state’s only NFL team, perhaps the Chiefs were paying homage to St. Louis — you know, by playing crummy like the dear, departed Rams did for so many years.
Or maybe, after a 1-5 start a year ago, the Chiefs were under the impression that seasons are supposed to start this way.
Whatever the reason, next to nothing went right for Kansas City for nearly three quarters Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium as the Chiefs fell behind by 21 points. Who could have predicted their dramatic comeback and a 33-27 overtime victory over San Diego?
