Clinging to a one-touchdown lead with four minutes remaining, Kansas City found itself needing to make just enough plays to keep St. Louis from retaking possession with a chance to tie; electrifying enough to avoid settling, Jamaal Charles did them one better. Positioned for success after a perfectly-designed end-around fake freezes the Rams’ edge blitzer, Charles — slowed only by cramps — uses joystick-like acceleration and speed to navigate his path to a 80-yard run, setting up a teammate’s game-clincher one play later. One step closer to stamping their own postseason ticket, the Chiefs prevailed 27-13 on Dec. 19, 2010, with Charles’ 14-touch, 153-yard, one-touchdown afternoon proving crucial.
