The Kansas City Chiefs held on to defeat the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 17-16.

Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith threw for 223 yards and two touchdowns while the defense did its job in the fourth in the Chiefs win.

According to Fox Sports the Chiefs haven not committed a turnover in the first two weeks of the season. This is probably a big factor in the team matching last season's win total. This is only the Chiefs' second 2-0 start since 2005.

USA Today reports that Jamal Charles ran for 55 yards and caught a touchdown pass.

Dwayne Bowe caught a touchdown in the third and Ryan Succop drilled a 40-yard field goal to give the Chiefs a 17-13 lead. The Cowboys came back marching down the field into Kansas City territory but settled for a field goal.

The Chiefs defense did not allow the Cowboys to put together a touchdown drive in the fourth for a W.
