Chiefs Haley gets the MVP's dander up

On October 7, 1984, the Chiefs lost to the New York Jets 17-16 in front of a crowd of 51,843 at Arrowhead Stadium. The toe of K Nick Lowery provided the first nine points of the game. Then the Jets scored the next 17 points before the Chiefs wrapped it up with a late touchdown in a failed comeback attempt. KC’s only TD was a one-yard pass from QB Todd Blackledge to TE Willie Scott. On the day, Blackledge was 15 of 25 for 150 yards. RB Theotis Brown had 90 yards rushing on 13 carries. Rookie CB Kevin Ross had an interception for the Chiefs defense.

That was my first Chiefs game at Arrowhead, on my 15th birthday. I remember the Gameday magazine had an article about how the Chiefs had gotten 10 sacks the week before against the Browns, led by our 3 man D-line of Bell, Maas, and Still. Now we get 10 sacks a year...LOL.

Surprised Gretz didn't mention Oct 7, 1991, probably the high point of the Carl Peterson era.
