    "The Chiefs' best game of the year ended in the most appropriate way possible: a turnover and a loss. Now comes the part where they push and pull about what it means. Everything up to the jobs of the head coach and general manager may hang in the balance.

    That we're now into the second half of the season with the Chiefs having one win and talking about their best game ending in a loss would be sadder if we weren't well past the point of worrying about such signs of ineptitude.

    The Chiefs played tough, and fearless. And even though they blew what turned out to be a 16-13 loss in overtime here on Monday night, as long as the men in charge are still in charge they have a chance to stay in charge.

    Hey, if nothing else, they finally ended that ridiculous season-long streak of never leading while the clock was running. They looked, mostly, like a real NFL team. Like they practice and everything.

    "The guys played their hearts out," coach Romeo Crennel said. "If the guys keep playing that way, we'll get this turned."

    It remains virtually impossible to imagine them doing it, but in a season of such historical and thorough failure you can hear quarterback Matt Cassel say this was "without a doubt" the Chiefs' best game of the year and nod your head with understanding."
