If Nick Lowery could have kicked under pressure, instead of missing a field goal in regulation and overtime, the Chiefs would have been in the 1989 playoffs.

And maybe Chiefs history would have been forever changed...

Why did you have to post this up. JFC I was already depressed.

The Chiefs won that game

Sorry, I meant that for the playoffs post.

The oddest thing about the 1989 season?

The Chiefs played the Dolphins twice. Twice.

And they only faced two NFC teams, both of which they beat.

Amazing how much the scheduling has changed.

How good would DeBerg Look on this team???? His play fakes were legendary..

I was at that game! With a Dolphin buddy. It was so damn cold. I showed up in a jeans jacket and it was like 40 degrees. No one was buying beer and Joe Robbie raised the price of coffee to $6/cup.

It actually snowed in Jacksonville and they had the highway closed for miles. That's the 1st and last time I remember snow in Jacksonville.

Oh, and we won and knocked the Dolphins out. My friend was pissed.

On this day in 1989 I was leaving the hospital for the first time in my life at 6 weeks old.

Well the Chiefs celebrated your homecoming with a win. As a real old guy,;I was deployed in Panama and got the comm guys to find/ print the score. I then enjoyed showing the Fish fans. Pre-interweb and sat comm was very limited then. As a kid, I was at the last Municipal Stadium game: Christmas Day 1971 vs the Fish: another bad day in Chiefs playoff history. I do have an all team autographed AFL football from the "1970 world champions" as one of the players wrote on the ball. I sure thought there would be more and that your generation had at least one by now........

Okoye must have had the biggest should pads in NFL history.

He was a pretty decent long ball guy

DeBerg...LOL, what a dum-dum for chucking that up there. His RB released and was WIDE OPEN in the flat.
