1984 Steelers 27 vs Chiefs 37
In his first action as a pro, rookie Louis Lipps explodes with 6 catches for 183 yds and 2 TDs, including a ridiculous pirouetting catch-and-juke for an 80-yd score. Stallworth is nearly as explosive, with 8 catches for 167 yds and a TD. But despite setting a team record for passing yards (233 for David Woodley and 225 for Mark Malone, who comes in after a Woodley concussion), mistakes at QB also set up 20 points for the Chiefs via 2 INTs and 2 fumbled snaps.
Sadly, this game also signals the beginning of the end for the great Jack Lambert, who plays sparingly after dislocating his toe on the first series of the game. Todd Blackledge gets his first NFL start for KC and scores a pair of TDs (1 rushing, 1 passing).
