Chiefs beat Steelers in overtime 27-24

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ryan Succop’s 22-yard field goal with 8:28 left in overtime lifted the Kansas City Chiefs to a come-from-behind 27-24 victory Sunday over the Pittsburgh Steelers, breaking a team-record 10-game home losing streak.

The Steelers, with Charlie Batch replacing a shaken-up Ben Roethlisberger in overtime, had to punt on their first possession in overtime and the Chiefs faced third down when Matt Cassel connected with Chris Chambers, who went 61 yards before he was pushed out of bounds on the 4.

Succop came in and kicked the game-winner.

In regulation, the Steelers had the ball for almost 19 minutes longer than the Chiefs (3-7) and out-gained them 463-206. The Chiefs stayed in the game with a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and a 94-yard interception return.
