Notes:  Number of Chiefs wins at the Meadowlands:  0.  Tiki Barber burns the Chiefs for 220 yards on 29 carries, setting a new NFL record.  Kansas City’s embarrassing tackling efforts help the G-Men win despite the poor performance of QB Eli Manning.  The loss fuels speculation that KC Head Coach Dick Vermeil will retire at the end of the season.  In his words, “We weren’t worth a damn.”
