San Diego owns a five-game win streak in the series, its first five-game winning stretch against the Chiefs since ’87-89. In 2009, the Chargers claimed a pair of victories over the Chiefs, a 37-7 decision at Arrowhead (10/25/09) and 43- 14 victory at Qualcomm Stadium (11/29/09).

Chiefs-Chargers matchups are traditionally closely-contested battles.

The Chiefs will celebrate the grand opening of the New Arrowhead in fitting fashion with a Monday Night Football clash against the San Diego Chargers (9/13) to close out a MNF doubleheader on ESPN. Monday’s game will culminate a $375 million renovation project at Arrowhead. The contest will also cap a rare NFL-MLB combination at the Truman Sports Complex as the Kansas City Royals face the Oakland A’s at 2:10 PM. Kansas City is making its first appearance on MNF since 2005 and is hosting MNF for the first time since 2004. Kansas City will open the season at home for the first time since 2006 and will host the Chargers on MNF for just the second time in this storied series between a pair of original American Football League franchises. An 86-yard punt return TD by the Chiefs in OT provided a thrilling conclusion to that initial MNF meeting at Arrowhead as KC secured a 29-23 OT victory (10/9/95). Under the guidance of Head Coach Todd Haley, the Chiefs made substantial progress in 2009. The Chiefs improved in 30 different statistical categories and finished the year with a 44-24 victory at Denver (1/3/10). The Chiefs led the NFL in Red Zone scoring efficiency in 2009, scoring on 89.5 percent (34 of 38) of their Red Zone possessions. Kansas City also made dramatic gains over the course of the season’s final eight games as the Chiefs averaged an NFL-best 5.2 yards per carry over the second half of the year. Defensively, the Chiefs ranked eighth in the NFL, forcing three and outs at a 24.4% (49 of 201) clip. Playing smarter has been a point of emphasis under Haley. The Chiefs ranked eighth in the NFL with just 84 penalties in 2009 and were sixth in penalty yardage (667) a year ago. As of September 7th, 56.6% of the Chiefs roster (30 of 53 players) owned three years of experience or less, including 10 rookies. That rookie class features a seven-man 2010 draft class, six of whom were season captains for their final collegiate season. In total, the Chiefs added 16 new players to their roster in 2010. Based on ages as of September 1st, the average age of the Chiefs 53- man roster is 25.9 years old. San Diego enters Monday’s contest owning an 11-game regular season victory streak. The Chargers have won on their last three visits to Arrowhead, but haven’t won four straight games in Kansas City since accomplishing the feat from ’74-77. Up next for Kansas City is a road trip to Cleveland (9/19), while San Diego is home vs. Jacksonville (9/19).

In the NFL’s 44-year Super Bowl era, 81.8% of eventual NFL champions (36 of 44) won on Opening Day, including 15 of the last 20 Super Bowl Champions dating back to the ’90 campaign.

Of the 458 teams that won openers since ’78, 243 (53.1%) went to the playoffs and 142 (31.0%) won division titles. Of the 458 teams that lost openers since ’78, 102 (22.3%) went to the playoffs and 60 (13.1%) won division titles. In 2009, teams that qualifi ed for the playoffs went 51-21 (.708) in division play.
