The1987Kansas City Chiefsseason was the franchise's 18th season in theNational Football League and the 28th overall.Under new head coachFrank Gansz, the Chiefs split their first two games, 1-1. The 1987 NFL season featured games predominantly played by replacement players, as the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) players went on strike from weeks four to six with week three being cancelled across the league. The replacement players went 0–3. After the regulars returned, the Chiefs continued to struggle. They lost their next five games to stand at 1–9 and finished the season with a 4–11 record a year after making the playoffs in 1986.

Offseason

[edit]

One of the most tumultuous weeks in franchise history took place following the club's playoff loss against theJets in the1986 playoffs. Assistant head coach and special teams coachFrank Gansz, resigned his position on January 7 in order to pursue opportunities as an NFL offensive coordinator.[1] The following day, the Chiefs announced in an impromptu press conference thatJohn Mackovic was relieved of his duties as head coach on January 8. A popular figure among Chiefs players, Gansz was reinstated on January 10 and was named the sixth head coach in franchise history.[1]

Former quarterbackLen Dawson became the third Chiefs player inducted into thePro Football Hall of Fame on August 8,[1] while injuries forced the retirement of the club's all-time leading tacklerGary Spani.

Season summary

[edit]

A duo of rookies made a splash in a 20–13 win on Opening Day againstSan Diego as running backPaul Palmer returned a kickoff for a TD andChristian Okoye dashed for 105 yards.[1] A 24-day players strike began on September 22, canceling the club's contest againstMinnesota.[1] Replacement players participated in games for the next three weeks. Much likeMarv Levy five years earlier, Gansz's grip on the club's coaching reins was crippled by the labor unrest.[1]

Kansas City's replacement squad consisted primarily of players cut in training camp. One of the few bright spots among the players was running back Jitter Fields, who remained on the active roster following the strike.[1] The Chiefs strike squad received an ominous welcome inLos Angeles when in the early morning hours of October 4, the day prior to a contest against theRaiders, an earthquake rattled SouthernCalifornia. The shaken Chiefs lost a 35–17 decision later that day. The low point of the year came the following week atMiami in the first regular season game played at what then was known asJoe Robbie Stadium. Chiefs replacement QBMatt Stevens was injured early in the contest, forcing into duty backup quarterbackAlex Espinoza, who had never taken an NFL snap. The result was a 42–0 Dolphins victory, setting the stage for an 0–3 performance by Kansas City's replacement unit, giving the Chiefs a 1–4 record before the club's regular roster returned atSan Diego on October 25.[1] Five straight losses followed, giving the Chiefs a team-record nine-game losing skid. For the only time in team history, five different players started games at quarterback for the club.[1] Behind Kenney, Kansas City won two of its last three games to conclude the strike-shortened 4–11 campaign.
