    <h3>Stunned Titans look to rebound against Chiefs</h3>



    <div class="pre">Tennessee (7-6) at Kansas City (4-9) 1:00 pm EST</div>

    KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Ticker) - A fourth-quarter collapse mayhave put the Tennessee Titans' playoff hopes on life support.

    The Titans look to bounce back from a crushing defeat when theyvisit the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.


    Last week, Tennessee squandered a 14-point lead in the finalnine minutes of the fourth quarter and suffered a 23-17 overtimeloss to the San Diego Chargers.


    The defeat knocked the Titans out of a playoff spot and droppedthem one game behind the Cleveland Browns for the AFC's secondwild card spot.


    With Jacksonville (9-4) in control of the AFC's first wild cardslot, Tennessee may need to run the table to make the playoffs.The Browns host the Buffalo Bills this week.


    "I don't know how it happened," defensive end Kyle Vanden Boschsaid of last week's collapse in which the Titans surrendered 20straight points. "We had the game in hand and that's the NFL. Alot can happen, especially in the fourth quarter."

    However, Tennessee may be facing the right team after a toughloss as the Chiefs have lost six straight.


    The Titans are making their first visit to Arrowhead Stadiumsince the franchise relocated from Houston in 1998.

    The rivalry between the two teams dates to the early days of theAmerican Football League. Kansas City and Houston were thefirst two cities to be awarded franchises in the AFL.

    Sunday's clash comes exactly 17 years to the day sinceTennessee's last victory in Kansas City.


    On December 16, 1990, Warren Moon led the-then Houston Oilers toa 27-10 win over the Chiefs. Moon passed for 527 yards, thesecond-highest single-game total in NFL history.


    Seventeen years later, such fireworks seem highly unlikely - ifnot impossible. The Chiefs rank 31st in total offense - andlast in rushing - while the Titans are 21st.


    In last week's 41-7 loss at Denver, Kansas City was outgained bymore than a three-to-one margin and rushed for only 16 yards.
