Notes:  The Chiefs extend their December home winning streak to 18 games and keep their playoff hopes alive with this dominant performance.  Larry Johnson rushes for over 100 yards for his eighth consecutive game against a Chargers defense that was number 1 against the run and had not allowed a 100-yard rusher in 16 consecutive games.  The Chiefs held RB LaDainian Tomlinson to 49 yards.
