1979 Kansas City Chiefs season
http://dbpedia.org/resource/1979_Kansas_City_Chiefs_season an entity of type: Thing
La stagione 1979 dei Kansas City Chiefs è stata la decima nella National Football League e la 20ª complessiva. Malgrado avere vinto tre partite più dell'anno precedente, la squadra mancò l'accesso ai playoff per l'ottavo anno consecutivo. Kansas City aveva due scelte nel primo giro del Draft NFL 1979, utilizzate per il defensive end Mike Bell e il quarterback Steve Fuller. Per la terza gara della stagione, Fuller aveva soppiantato il veterano Mike Livingston come titolare.

The 1979 Kansas City Chiefs season was the franchise's 10th season in the National Football League, the 17th as the Kansas City Chiefs, and the 20th overall. They improved on their 4-12 record from 1978 to a 7–9 record, but a last-place finish in the AFC West. The Chiefs missed the playoffs for the eighth straight year due to the four other teams ahead of them in their division all finishing with winning records. The Chiefs set a dubious NFL record for the season, with the fewest passing yards (1,660, 103.8 per game) in a 16-game season.

The 1979 Kansas City Chiefs season was the franchise's 10th season in the National Football League, the 17th as the Kansas City Chiefs, and the 20th overall. They improved on their 4-12 record from 1978 to a 7–9 record, but a last-place finish in the AFC West. The Chiefs missed the playoffs for the eighth straight year due to the four other teams ahead of them in their division all finishing with winning records. Kansas City owned a pair of picks in the first round of the 1979 Draft, selecting defensive end Mike Bell and quarterback Steve Fuller. By the season's third game, Fuller had supplanted Mike Livingston as the club's starter. With Fuller at the helm, the Chiefs owned a 4–2 record after six games, but a five-game midseason losing streak ended the attempt. Despite finishing fifth in the AFC West for a second straight season, Kansas City's 7–9 record was a notable accomplishment considering the fact that the division's other four clubs all posted winning records for a second consecutive season. The Chiefs closed the season by dropping a 3–0 decision at Tampa Bay on December 16 in one of the most water-logged contests in franchise annals. As both clubs struggled to move the ball under monsoon-like conditions (Kansas City was held to 80 total yards), a field goal late in the fourth quarter by the Buccaneers' Neil O'Donoghue averted the NFL's first scoreless tie since 1943, allowing Tampa Bay to win the NFC Central division championship after a three-game losing streak. The Chiefs set a dubious NFL record for the season, with the fewest passing yards (1,660, 103.8 per game) in a 16-game season.

La stagione 1979 dei Kansas City Chiefs è stata la decima nella National Football League e la 20ª complessiva. Malgrado avere vinto tre partite più dell'anno precedente, la squadra mancò l'accesso ai playoff per l'ottavo anno consecutivo. Kansas City aveva due scelte nel primo giro del Draft NFL 1979, utilizzate per il defensive end Mike Bell e il quarterback Steve Fuller. Per la terza gara della stagione, Fuller aveva soppiantato il veterano Mike Livingston come titolare.
