Answers:
Nick Lowery in 1990 led the NFL in FG’s made (also with 34 FGs like Butker had this year)
Otis Taylor led the NFL in receiving yards with 1,110 yards receiving in 1971. He actually was the only WR the entire year with 1,000 yards
Stephone Paige still has the record of 309 yards receiving (on just 8 receptions) in a 1985 win over the Chargers in Arrowhead
Joe Montana (twice vs. Steelers & at Oilers) and Alex Smith (at Texans)
New Orleans Saints (this was the game Charles had the 92 yard TD run in the Superdome) and Carolina Panthers (day after Belcher’s murder-suicide) were the only 2 wins the Chiefs had in 2012 before Andy arrived to change all that.
Denver Broncos (home) and Oakland Raiders (road) were the only 2 wins in 2008 to close out the Carl Peterson-Herm Edwards Era
Christian Okoye (1989), Priest Holmes (2001) & Kareem Hunt (2017) are the only Chiefs RBs to ever lead the NFL in rushing yards in a season. Abner Haynes did lead the AFL in rushing yards in 1960 but that of course was with the Dallas Texans and that will not count.
James Hasty (Pick 6 OT winner vs Raiders in Arrowhead on Football Jesus birth date - September 17, 1995)
Tamarick Vanover (OT punt return winner on MNF vs. Chargers)
Mark Collins (fumble return TD vs Oilers in the last seconds of regulation on Sunday Night Football) were the 3 walkoffs in 1995
In the 1986 Chiefs playoff clinching 24-19 win at the Steelers the offense scored just 3 points but the special teams scored all 3 TDs to win that game.
They were Deron Cherry who fell on a blocked punt in the end zone to account for a first-quarter touchdown and Boyce Green and Lloyd Burruss scored in the second quarter on a 97-yard kickoff return and a 78-yard return of a blocked field goal, respectively.
