Chiefs avoid blackout with 156th consecutive sellout

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The local TV streak continues for the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Chiefs announced Friday they had sold enough tickets to Sunday's game with Buffalo (4-8) to avoid a television blackout for the 156th straight game.

The Chiefs (3-9) have not had a game blacked out since late in the 1990 season. They requested a 24-hour extension from the NFL on Thursday because there were still tickets to be sold.

The streak could be in trouble next week since the two-win Cleveland Browns are the final home opponent.
