Notes: Kansas City stops the
Jets’ drive at the KC 13, and on the subsequent field goal attempt the Jets
fake and go for the touchdown. The pass
is incomplete, and the Chiefs offense takes the field. QB Bill Kenney, in his first start of the
season, cannot get anything done against the Jets defense and the Chiefs punt
the ball away. Late in the second
quarter CB Russell Carter intercepts
another poorly thrown Kenney pass, setting up NY for their second
touchdown. This time it’s a 16-yard pass
to TE Mickey Shuler.
In the third quarter, who else – DE Mark Gastineau –
recovers a fumble forced by DE Tom Baldwin as it tumbles into the end zone for
the third Jets touchdown. QB Pat Ryan
runs in the extra point (two-point conversions had not been allowed yet) while
the Chiefs are napping.
Kansas City
finally gets on the board early in the fourth quarter with a 7-yard pass to RB
Ken Lacy. The Jets retake a
three-touchdown lead when Pat Ryan finds RB Cedric Minter on the run for a
39-yard scoring pass. The game finishes
with the Jets driving and the Chiefs unable to tackle, and KC drops to 4-4.
Missing a play or two in the fourth
quarter. After the game coverage
switches to the Raiders-Chargers game with 6 minutes left.
Thanks Jason!
