7 - 7 Tie Game
Chiefs WR Dante Hall answered on the next possession with a 41 yd TD reception to tie the game.
Broncos WR Ashley Lelie made a 56 yd grab to the Kansas City 17 yd line but the drive ended when QB Jake Plummer threw an interception in the end zone, caught by Chiefs CB Patrick Surtain.

2nd Quarter:
Broncos CB Champ Bailey retaliated by picking off Chiefs QB Trent Green and returning it 10 yds to the Denver 43 yd line. It was Bailey's 7th INT of the season. The Broncos were unable to capitalize on the turnover and punted back to KC.
14 - 7 Chiefs lead
Chiefs RB Larry Johnson scored on a 1 yd rush to put Kansas City ahead by a TD. Key play: WR Eddie Kennison 54 yd reception to the Denver 15 yd line.

Broncos RB Mike Anderson scored his 2nd TD of the game to tie the score again on a 1 yd rush up the middle.

31 - 27 Chiefs Win
Chiefs RB Larry Johson scored his 2nd TD of the game on a 4 yd rush for the game winning score with 10:03 left in the game. Key plays: WR Eddie Kennison 18 yd reception, RB Larry Johnson 30 yd run, unneccessary roughness penalty called on Broncos S John Lynch gave the Chiefs 1st and goal at the 4 yd line.
Both teams went 3 and out on their next possessions. Denver RB Mike Anderson went for it on 4th and 1 and was originally given the 1st down but the ruling was challenged by Kansas City and overturned, saying he was short of the 1st. Kansas City then ran the clock down to 0:08 and punted back to Denver. Broncos QB Jake Plummer was able to get off one play, a pass thrown to WR Charlie Adams that fell incomplete.
