KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Ticker) - A pair of rushing touchdownsand a late defensive stand helped carry the Oakland Raiders to a20-17 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

Raiders running back Justin Fargas rushed 22 times for 139yards, including 96 yards in the second half, and scored thego-ahead touchdown on a 14-yard run with 9:34 to play.

Oakland snapped a nine-game losing streak to Kansas City.

Oakland's comeback overshadowed a stellar performance by Chiefsrookie running back Kolby Smith.


Four days after Priest Holmes announced his retirement, Smithcarried the ball 31 times for 150 yards and two touchdowns forthe Chiefs (4-7), who suffered their fourth straight loss.

Smith scored on 10-yard and 5-yard runs for both Kansas Citytouchdowns. Both scores turned an Oakland lead into a KansasCity advantage, as the Chiefs took a 17-13 lead into the fourthquarter.


LaMont Jordan collected the other touchdown for the Raiders on a5-yard run with 6:04 left in the third quarter to give Oaklanda 13-10 lead.


Placekickers marked the difference in the game. SebastianJanikowski connected on two field goals for the Raiders - from25 and 54 yards.


Dave Rayner missed one of his two tries for the Chiefs, thesecond from 33 yards with 10:51 left in the game.
