DICK VERMEIL COACHING CAREER MAY HAVE ONLY TWO GAMES TO GO

There are eight teams in contention for six positions and there are only four of those teams that have a better record than the Chiefs have right now and they are playing the Giants an NFC team and have to win anyway. The Chiefs schedule is tougher than everybody else that is competing basing it on teams that have winning records and the Chiefs cannot afford another loss. The losses have made Vermeil to ponder why the hell he is still coaching the team. Now when his illustrious coaching career may have only two games to go, “the decision will be made within the next three weeks," the 69-year-old has taken both Philadelphia and St. Louis to the Super Bowl and been honored as coach of the year at four different levels, and might put off retirement if the Kansas City Chiefs had a good year. But their poor [performance limited them to a score of 27-17 against the New York Giants and dropped them to 8-6 and reduced their playoff hopes to flash inconsistently. The only way they can get into the postseason now is to win their last two games, at home against San Diego and Cincinnati (for the fans to remind them these last two games are discretionary for Vermeil’s coaching career). Poor tackling and faulty execution was a shocking letdown for a defense, (Vermeil and Chiefs fans) that had gone 20 games without allowing a 100-yard rusher. However, success has followed Vermeil everywhere he's gone. His career record as an NFL head coach is 123-114. He's 42-36 with the Chiefs, but has taken them to the playoffs only once in his first four years. Now, it’s the time to keep your fingers crossed and pray for the Chiefs’ victory in next two games.

A VICTORY AND ANOTHER DEFEAT

The Chiefs held off the Broncos 31-27 and for the 17th straight season, they have won a home game in December. The Chiefs were victorious despite the ideal conditions at Arrowhead were far from away. The temperature was bone-numbing and the ground was nearly frozen and after a well-paced first half full of big plays, the Chiefs jagged second-half play that led to a spectacular 31-27 win over Denver. The victory pushed the Chiefs all-time home record against the Broncos in the month of December to 17-1 and extended KC’s home winning streak in December to a remarkable 17 straight games. Johnson powered Chiefs past Broncos for third straight. He rushed for 90 of his 140 yards in the fourth quarter as the Chiefs met the challenge of their late-season schedule over the Broncos in a matchup of bitter AFC West Division rivals. He also won the game-winning touchdown, while the KC defense slammed on fourth-and-one in the game’s final minutes. The Chiefs took a lot of shots all season. With the awesome win the Chiefs (8-4) pulled within one game of the Broncos (9-3) in a AFC West keeping their playoff aspirations alive and well with four games left. It looked as if the Chiefs played classical football and changed the tempo of the game to a defensive slugfest where the 271 combined second-half yards were tough to come by. The Broncos were nowhere near able to stop the hungry Chiefs. Like no other quarterback before in this 2005 season, the Chiefs' Trent Green successfully spotted vulnerabilities in the Broncos' intermediate and deep routes. Trent Green passed for 253 yards, including touchdowns to Dante Hall and Tony Gonzalez.

CHIEFS BEST FANS: CHIEFS CHEERLEADERS

Have you ever seen the sidelines that have always been filled with some of the best Chiefs fans of all, the Chiefs Cheerleaders! Though uniforms, dance, and cheer styles have changed to keep up with the times, but one thing remains the same: the enthusiasm of the team’s cheerleaders. Since owner Lamar Hunt introduced the Dallas Texans to Kansas City back in the 60’s, not only women but also men also graced the sidelines, cheering on the Chiefs and boosting the fans. The concept of the co-ed cheerleaders gradually faded away, giving way to all female Chiefettes in the 70’s. The decade of the 80s brought back men for seven years as the name was changed to Chiefs Cheerleaders. Men and women Chiefs Cheerleaders performed side-by-side. In the late 80s the Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleading squad was only female with emphasis on jazz combined with ballet dance. Currently, the Chiefs Cheerleaders are all female. Like other NFL cheerleading squads, the Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleaders primarily perform dance routines and encourage crowds to cheer for the Chiefs. They also serve as perfect models and pose for the calendars.

Chiefs Coaches

Dick VermeilHead Coach

A new crusade was officially initiated on January 12, 2001 when Chiefs President Carl Peterson named Dick Vermeil as the ninth head coach in the 45-year history of the franchise. The 2004 season marks the fourth year of the Vermeil era in Kansas City. This highly-respected coach returned to the NFL ranks in Kansas City after taking a one-year football hiatus following his victory in Super Bowl XXXIV with the St. Louis Rams.
“Sooner or later, it was probably going to happen that Carl and I would be back together again, rejoined to initiate a new crusade,” Vermeil said upon accepting his third NFL head coaching post. “Every time we’ve done it, we’ve been successful.”

After taking a 14-year sabbatical from the coaching profession from ’83-96, Vermeil returned to the league as President of Football Operations and head coach of the St. Louis Rams on January 22, 1997. Vermeil took over a St. Louis team which had suffered seven consecutive losing seasons and hadn’t been to the postseason since ’88. In just his third season as head coach of that club in ’99, he guided the Rams to a 13-3 regular season record and a thrilling 23-16 victory vs. Tennessee in Super Bowl XXXIV. St. Louis contained its opponents to 21 points or less in all 13 of those regular season victories, winning those contests by an average margin of 22.9 points per game.

The Vermeils make their home in the historic Country Club Plaza district of Kansas City, Missouri. When not in Kansas City, the entire Vermeil family enjoys spending time and working on “The Ranch,” a 114-acre homestead located outside Philadelphia in rural Chester County, Pennsylvania.
