GLENDALE, Ariz. - The Kansas City Chiefs got their must-win game off to a great start behind the versatility of Jamaal Charles.Once the second half rolled around, the Chiefs fell flat and may have flat-lined their playoff hopes in the process.Kansas City had two key turnovers and struggled to move the ball against Arizonas defence in the second half, leading to a 17-14 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday that puts a big dent in the Chiefs playoff chances.We obviously need to do a better job, take care of our business, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. We had every opportunity to do that today and we didnt get it accomplished.Both teams came into the game in desperate need of a win.Once the dominant team in the NFC, Arizona (10-3) had gone into a tailspin, seemingly clinging to playoff hopes through a rash of injuries. On the ropes, the Cardinals came through like they always seem to at home, rallying from a sluggish first half with a dominant defensive second 30 minutes to keep their place atop the NFC West.Kerwynn Williams ran for 100 yards after being elevated from the practice squad on Thursday and Drew Stanton threw a touchdown pass for Arizona, which has won its most games since an 11-victory season in 1925.I aint going to deny that we needed one big, said Cardinals coach Bruce Arians, whose team is 7-0 at home, said of the victory.The Chiefs (7-6) may have needed it more.They were one of the NFLs hottest teams just a few weeks ago on the heels of a five-game winning streak. A tough-to-take loss to winless Oakland set Kansas City back and last weeks loss to Denver knocked the Chiefs out of the AFC West race, clinging to wild-card hopes.The Chiefs got off to a good start against Arizona behind Charles, who was questionable after banging his knee against Denver.He showed no ill effects against the Cardinals, racing for a 63-yard touchdown on Kansas Citys third play from scrimmage. He went to the locker room after turning his ankle in the second quarter, but returned quickly to turn a short catch into an 18-yard touchdown that put the Chiefs up 14-6 at halftime.Kansas Citys defence held its ground against Arizona in the first half, holding Arizona to a pair of field goals by Chandler Catanzaro, who also sent a 36-yarder off the upright to close out the first half.After struggling early, Stanton started to find a rhythm late in the third quarter.He hit Michael Floyd on a 45-yard pass to set up Catanzaros third field goal, then found Jaron Brown for a 26-yard touchdown that put Arizona up 17-14 in the fourth quarter.Worse for the Chiefs on the Brown touchdown was what came right before. Tight end Anthony Fasano hauled in what appeared to be a 19-yard touchdown, but was called for offensive pass interference.On the next play, Alex Smith threw a wobbly pass that Alex Okafor intercepted and returned 26 yards to Kansas Citys 42-yard line.Quite a swing on two plays, said Smith, who threw for 293 yards and a touchdown on 26-of-39 passing.Kansas City crossed midfield late in the fourth quarter, only to turn it over again, this time on a disputed play.Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was originally credited with a 19-yard catch, but the officials ruled after review that he fumbled after being stripped by Deone Bucannon and Arizonas Justin Bethel recovered.Shocked. Either way it is a huge play in the game, Kelce said. It is my job to not even give doubt or put my team in that position.Catanzaro missed a 39-yard field goal on the ensuing drive to give the Chiefs a final chance, but they turned it over on downs to put the playoffs that much further away.NOTES: Chiefs WR Dwayne Bowe had a highlight-reel play in the second quarter, when he caught a pass and hurdled a pair of Cardinals defenders to gain a few extra yards. ...

Wide receiver Brandon Marshall has been ruled out for the Dec. 15 home game against the New Orleans Saints due to two fractured ribs and a lung injury. According to a report from ESPN, Marshall will sit the Bears remaining three games this season. The Bears have other injuries to consider in addition to a 5-8 record that has coach Marc Trestman fielding questions about his future with the team. Marshall was taken to the hospital by ambulance after leaving Thursday nights 41-28 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in the second quarter. He was hit in the right side by the knee of Dallas defensive back Barry Church after making a catch. I went over to the hospital last night to see him, Trestman said Friday. He was in very good spirits. Hes got some healing to do, obviously, and hell be out for the week certainly and well see where he is as we move along. But he had a smile on his face. He was in good spirits. Whether Marshall plays again this year will depend on further evaluation of his injuries, according to a team spokesman. Trestman said both Marquess Wilson and Josh Morgan are options to replace Marshall in the Monday night game with New Orleans. One player Trestman is more certain will start against New Orleans is quarterback Jay Cutler. With the team likely to be eliminated from any mathematical playoff chances either Sunday or the following week, Trestman said he has no intention of starting backup Jimmy Clausen just to take a look at him. Jay is our quarterback, Trestman said. If hes available to play, hes going to play. Chicaagos chief goal on offence going forward will be to find a way to run the ball after back-to-back efforts of 15 and 35 rushing yards.ddddddddddddTrestman and the coaching staff received criticism for a franchise-low eight rushes the previous week against Detroit and the Bears ran just 15 times against Dallas. Theyve given us run plays and we havent made those blocks and gotten positive yards on those runs, centre Roberto Garza said. So we have to be able to go out there and get positive yards every time they call a run to be able to keep running the football. Defensively, the Bears appear to be in shambles after they gave up a season-worst 194 rushing yards Thursday, but had been yielding yardage through the air at an alarming rate prior to the loss to Dallas. Injuries continue to plague the defence. Safety Chris Conte, bothered by concussions, eye and shoulder injuries this season, left Thursdays game with a back injury. Its led to questions about whether Conte is physically able to play football. He loves football, he wants to play football, Trestman said. When hes cleared to play, we play him. After an 8-8 record his first year and a 5-8 start this year, Trestman and his assistants are fielding questions about the future of the staff. It happened after Thursdays game and his response was simply he has work to do rather than worry about outside talk. On Friday, Trestman said he still has support at Halas Hall from those he called key parties, chiefly general manager Phil Emery. Its been tremendously supportive, during the good weeks and bad weeks, he said. And its been extremely consistent by everybody here. ' ' '
