The Green Bay Packers' perfect season came to a crashing halt on Sunday against the beleaguered Kansas City Chiefs, who rallied behind interim coach Romeo Crennel and new quarterback Kyle Orton to a shocking 19-14 victory. Orton finished 23 of 31 for 299 yards in his first start for the Chiefs (6-8), who fired coach Todd Haley last Monday with the team having lost five of its last six games. The loss also ended the Packers' 19-game winning streak. But behind an inspired performance by the defense, four field goals by Ryan Succop and Jackie Battle's short touchdown run with 4:53 left in the game, Kansas City managed to hand the Packers (13-1) their first loss since Dec. 19, 2010, at New England — exactly one day shy of a full year. Aaron Rodgers was just 17 of 35 for 235 yards and a touchdown, and he also scampered eight yards for another touchdown with 2:12 left in the game but the Packers were unable to recover the onside kick and then pick up a couple of first downs to secure the victory.

this was a very shocking win by the chiefs. I think its good that the packers loss cause now they dont need to worry about going undefeated and win the superbowl they can now just worry abour going to the superbowl
They can now rest their stars and get primed for the playoffs. Gotta secure the top seed though. Would have been nice to see them win them all though. That call at the end would have changed things, but the game should not have been that close.
Alright...so ROMEO FREAKING CRENNEL beats the Packers AND makes the Chiefs look good. I learned 2 things from this... 1.) The Packers aren't as great as everyone thinks... 2.) The Browns are really truly cursed if their cast off goes from crap to beating an undefeated Packers team with the CHIEFS...
