Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy is a thief….in a good way.
He revealed he stole a play from Michigan in the 1948 Rose Bowl against USC early on in the 1st half against the 49ers.
The play helped convert a fourth down before the Chiefs scored their first touchdown of the night.

And so, it’s just a play that we’ve been working and wondering when we can polish it off. It was fun to watch. It was fun to watch. And those guys did a great job of executing it. I mean all that hard work and practicing that play for the entire season, it just worked and it paid off.”
