STREAKS, STATS AND NOTES – Cardinals making first trip to Kansas City in eight years; looking for first win in KC in five tries. … After this week, Cardinals will be home for three straight. … Old friends and former colleagues Ken Whisenhunt and Todd Haley facing each other for first time as head coaches. … With 91 yards receiving against Seattle last week, Larry Fitzgerald is 251 yards away from passing Jackie Smith for second all-time on franchise list. Fitzgerald, who credits Haley with much of his development when Haley was his offensive coordinator, needs 15 catches to pass Anquan Boldin as team’s all-time receptions leader. … Cardinals do not rank in top 26 in rushing, passing, rush defense, pass defense, turnover ratio or opponent points per game. … Chiefs only team with winning record left on Arizona schedule. … Chiefs will be trying for first 5-0 start at home since going 8-0 in ’03. … Before Cardinals left St. Louis for Phoenix, franchises played 21 straight preseason games, including the inaugural game in Arrowhead Stadium on Aug. 12, 1972. … Haley will be hobbled with injury to right leg which he refuses to discuss. Would not answer when asked if it would be uncomfortable standing on sideline during game.
