Chiefs Anniversary-20 Years ago today-our last playoff win
 

Time flies when you're having fun! :rolleyes:

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- I would be remiss on this day of all days if I didn't recall the last playoff game won by the Kansas City Chiefs. It happened Jan. 16, 1994, in Houston, where the Chiefs beat the Oilers 28-20 in a divisional round playoff game.

Things were looking up for the Chiefs following their last playoff win -- 20 years ago today.
The iconic moment of the game, of course, came when tight end Keith Cash after scoring a touchdown spiked the ball against a poster of Houston's infamous defensive coordinator, Buddy Ryan, that was hanging over the retaining wall. But there were plenty of other huge moments. ESPN recently showed highlights of some of them, including Joe Montana's touchdown passes to J.J. Birden and Willie Davis and the Marcus Allen touchdown run in the final minutes that wrapped up the victory. The Kansas City Star also recently did a nice job in looking back at that game through the eyes of Davis, now a scout for the Chiefs.

I was in my rookie season covering the Chiefs for the Kansas City Star. Other than the big plays, my overwhelming recollection was how loud the Astrodome was that day. It was consistently can't-hear-yourself-think loud.

That, and this, which was no doubt a thought shared by millions of Chiefs fans: Anything seemed possible for the Chiefs in the moments after that victory. I was convinced, and again I was not alone, that the Chiefs would go to Buffalo for the following week's AFC championship game and beat the Bills. I thought the Chiefs would be winning playoff games for years to come.

History has turned out differently for the Chiefs. They lost to the Bills in a blowout the next week and they also lost their seven subsequent playoff games. Some of those games have been lopsided, some could have been won by the Chiefs had any number of close plays gone their way.

As any Chiefs fan can attest, none of those plays have gone Kansas City's way. It's been eight straight losses and 20 seasons since. And though the details of the playoff win over Houston remain vivid, that game really doesn't seem like yesterday, does it?

In before playoff win.

An oldie but a goodie!!! :clap:

20 years.


I use that gif a lot, but it sums up my feelings on in this thread perfectly.

Yes because we need to be reminded of our failures for the past twenty years.

I wonder if Marcus Allen named his kid Marty in remembrance.

The #1 film at the box office that weekend was Philadelphia with Tom Hanks

The #1 song was All for Love...Bryan Adams, Rod Stewert and Sting

AND I was 11, good times. :grr:

It was 20 years to the day Sgt Peppers taught the band to play.......

(Do you need anybody?)

I just need a playoff win.

(Could it be anybody?)

I don't care who we beat.

Oh I get by with a little help from CP
Mm going to try with a little help from CP
Oh I get high with a little help from CP
Yes I get by with a little help from CP
With a little help from CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCPPPPPPPPPPPP

That...

Makes me want to ****ing kill myself

**** ya. I remember it like it was 20 years ago.

Joe Cocker FTW

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is my favorite Joe Cocker song.

The life of a Chiefs fan. Living in the past because it is all the Chiefs give us. The past.

Personally, I think the best we can ever hope for is to do what the Bills and Eagles did. Close but no cigar.

Thanks for posting this just when I was getting over the meltdown

Did something happen 20 years ago that cursed us? Has there been research to figure out what could have happened? Players open a tomb? Hunt sell his soul? Some wrongdoing to a person?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

IT FEELS LIKE YESTERDAY

*hops on Big Wheel and pedals away*

Ah, Doom (the first one) was released just a few weeks before that. Perhaps an omen.

hmmmmmm

What a glorious anniversary. I can't wait until the 25th. ROFL

What is the 25th?

Gold? Silver?

The wife and I were in the first row in the end zone. JJ Birden made that catch right in front of us. Still have the VHS tape with us celebrating on the end zone camera shot. The next week when Keith Cash spiked the ball at the Buddy Ryan poster I went nuts.....God I feel old now.......Why did click on this thread? ....I feel sick.....

Happy Anniversary! I wish you many more!


















































Sorry.

I remember my first beer.

Do you really?

I know how you guys feel, it's been almost a week since the last Broncos playoff victory. It's tough. ROFL

It won't be that long until their next loss though.

Congrats to you all

I'm having a hard time getting over the idea that my daughter graduates this year, and she has never known the Chiefs in her lifetime being playoff winners. That's just almost insane to consider.

Twenty years and counting. Meanwhile I have witnessed all of our divisional rivals (including old rival Seattle) reach at least one Super Bowl. In addition I have seen a 7-9 Seattle team win a playoff game and the Broncos win a playoff game with Tim frigging Tebow at quarterback.

Being a Chiefs fan...well, it just sucks sometimes.

Holy shit KnowMo. What a rep message. ROFL

ya

I'm betting it's the last thing he remembers.

Thats not so bad. If your 30 and under you have never known the Royals to ever make the playoffs.

Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play

How can he forget yesterday?

What I'm most pissed about that year was that Buffalo ran us off the field in the Championship game then played like a high school team at their first practice in the Super Bowl.

Wow! I thought being a Pirates fan all these years was bad but the Royals really suck. :doh!:
