The Chiefs beat the Broncos in OT on a lucky field goal

  • 7 years ago
In one of the wildest NFL games in memory, Kansas City ricocheted its way to a 30-27 overtime victory Sunday night, handing the Denver Broncos a devastating loss before a packed house at Sports Authority Field. Kicker Brandon McManus attempted a 62-yard field goal to try to win Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs in the final minutes of overtime. McManus’ right foot slammed into the grass and the line drive kick fell just short of the uprights.
That left the Chiefs with a short field and plenty of time to set up Cairo Santos’ 34-yard game winner as time expired in overtime. Kubiak said. "I made that decision and it just didn't work out. I have a lot of confidence in Brandon, I have a lot of confidence in our football team. That's why I made the decision."
