They failed to improve their 11–5 record from 1993 and finishing with a 9–7 record and Wild Card spot in the 1994–95 playoffs. The Chiefs lost to the Miami Dolphins 27–17 in the wild-card round. Alongside celebrating the NFL's 75th anniversary season, Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana retired following the season. By playing their first four games vs. the NFC West, the Chiefs became the first AFC team to play its first four games against NFC teams since the AFL–NFL merger. The first team to play four inter-conference games to open a season were the 1992 Los Angeles Rams. 1994 was the first season that the playing surface at Arrowhead Stadium was natural grass. It had previously been TartanTurf from 1972 to 1993. 3 Offseason Additions SubtractionsQB Steve Bono (49ers) QB Dave Krieg (Lions)TE Derrick Walker (Chargers) RB Todd McNair (Oilers)NT Greg Kragen (Broncos) T Reggie McElroy (Vikings)WR Eric Martin (Saints) RB Harvey Williams (Raiders)CB Mark Collins (Giants) CB Kevin Ross (Falcons)LB Greg Manusky (Vikings) S Martin Bayless (Redskins)P Louie Aguiar (Jets) TE Jonathan Hayes (Steelers)S William White (Lions) CB Albert Lewis (Raiders) P Bryan Barker (Eagles) K Nick Lowery (Jets) Draft 1994 NFL draft 1994 Kansas City Chiefs 1 25 Greg Hill Running back Texas A&M yes 2 58 Donnell Bennett Running back Miami (FL) yes 3 92 Lake Dawson Wide receiver Notre Dame yes 3 96 Chris Penn Wide receiver Tulsa yes 4 127 Bracy Walker Defensive back North Carolina yes 5 151 James Burton Defensive back Fresno State 5 156 Rob Waldrop Defensive tackle Arizona yes 6 185 Anthony Daigle Running back Fresno State 7 199 Steve Matthews Quarterback Memphis 7 219 Tracy Greene Tight end Grambling State yes no no https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/kan/1994_draft.htm 1994 Kansas City Chiefs draftees Pro-Football-Reference.com December 4, 2014 Undrafted free agents + 1994 undrafted free agents of notePlayerPositionCollegeKen AlexanderLinebackerFlorida StateDunstan AndersonDefensive endTulsaByron BondsDefensive tackleSMULarry BoydDefensive endArizona StateElvin CaldwellGuardPurdueJerry FreeseLinebackerNortheastern Oklahoma StateRobert GaddyTackleAlcorn StateMonty GrowSafetyFloridaBernardo HarrisLinebackerNorth Carolina Personnel Staff 1994 Kansas City Chiefs Founder – Lamar Hunt Chairman of the Board – Jack Steadman President/General Manager/Chief Executive Officer – Carl Peterson Assistant General Manager – Dennis Thum Vice President of Player Personnel – Lynn Stiles Director of Pro Personnel – Mark Hatley Director of College Scouting – Terry Bradway Head Coach – Marty Schottenheimer Assistant Head Coach/Wide Receivers – Al Saunders Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks – Paul Hackett Running Backs – Jimmy Raye Tight Ends – Kurt Schottenheimer Offensive Line – Alex Gibbs Offensive Assistant/Quality Control – Mike McCarthy Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers – Dave Adolph Defensive Line – Tom Pratt Defensive Backs – Herman Edwards Defensive Assistant – John Bunting Defensive Assistant/Quality Control – Darvin Wallis Special Teams – Kurt Schottenheimer Strength and Conditioning – Dave Redding Assistant Strength and Conditioning – Russ Ball Roster 1994 Kansas City Chiefs 14 Matt Blundin 13 Steve Bono 19 Joe Montana 32 Marcus Allen 38 Kimble Anders 29 Greg Hill running back y 21 Jon Vaughn 88 J.

Facing his old team, Joe Montana led the Chiefs to a 24–17 win at Arrowhead. But after opening the season at 3–0, the Chiefs dropped 2 in a row to the Rams and Chargers. On October 17, a 6-yard pass and a tightrope run into the end zone ended the Chiefs' 11-year drought in Mile High Stadium. Joe Montana and the Chiefs faced a 4-point deficit on Monday Night Football. The final drive in the final 82 seconds took nine plays, all of them Montana passes except one run of 10 yards by Marcus Allen; Montana's final pass was a five-yard score to Willie Davis for the 31–28 Kansas City win. For the game, Montana hit 34 of 54 pass attempts for 393 yards and 3 touchdowns and the Chiefs, now 4–2, had now thrust themselves back into the playoff hunt. The game was tied 14–14 at the half. Lin Elliott's field goal with 4:08 left in the game temporarily put the Chiefs ahead 24–21. A Marcus Allen fumble set up the Broncos' final touchdown, but Montana and his inspiring confidence resulted in the comeback. Montana would have another great season, passing for 3,283 yards. The rushing game improved from 1993 as the Chiefs rushed for 1,732 yards and twelve touchdowns (up from the previous year's 1,655 yards). Allen's game trailed off from 1993 as he gained 709 yards to lead the team (to 764 the previous year), while rookie Greg Hill managed only 574 yards for the season. Fullback Kimble Anders was the leading receiver with 67 receptions. The defense showed flashes of brilliance as it improved to seventh in fewest points allowed from 1993's ninth, and as had become the standard, was led by perennial Pro Bowlers Derrick Thomas and Neil Smith. Defensive back Dale Carter had a superb year and was also chosen for the Pro Bowl. On December 24, Marcus Allen gained 132 yards rushing as the Chiefs beat the Los Angeles Raiders 19–9 in the last Raiders game ever as host in Los Angeles. The win secured a fifth-straight playoff spot for the Chiefs.
