The team is based in Kansas City, Missouri, even though it was first founded in Dallas in 1960, known as the Dallas Texans. Three years later they moved to Kansas City and changed its name to the Chiefs.
The group is a current member of the Western Division of the American Football Conference in the NFL.
Throughout the years of existence, the Chiefs has encountered several sad losses including the decease of Stone Johnson; a rookie running back who suffered a neck injury while playing against the Raiders.
In 1965, second year running back Mack Lee Hill died while in surgery due to a knee injury. In 1980 offensive tackle Jim Tyrer faced difficult times financially-wise which let him to kill his wife and himself. And three years later, NFL Rookie Jose Delaney drowned in Louisiana while trying to save a couple of kids from drowning as well.
Over the past 10 years the team has struggled to appear in the playoffs; being part in only three occasions while losing in every single one. Despite the signing of quarterback Damon Huard in early February 2007, that campaign proof to be one of the team’s worst ones since 1987 since the Chiefs only managed to win 4 times and lost 12 games in total.
