Late Field Goal Lifts Chiefs Over Chargers

SAN DIEGO (AP) – Cairo Santos kicked a 48-yard field goal field goal with 21 seconds left andchiefs logo the Kansas City Chiefs beat San Diego 23-20 Sunday, snapping the Chargers’ five-game winning streak.

The Chiefs moved into field goal range thanks to Alex Smith, who completed three straight passes on the drive for 43 yards, including a 29-yarder to Dwayne Bowe.

Smith was playing on the same field where he led Helix High to consecutive San Diego Section championships.
