The past week was tense for many Kansas City Chiefs defensive players because of the lack of pass rush in recent losses. Many of those critics were silenced after today's impressive victory over the New York Jets.

Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones made bold comments earlier in the week, downplaying the importance of sacks. He told reporters at the podium that they weren't important and that winning was his focus. After a breakout two-sack performance in Week 9, he is proudly backtracking.

"I know last week I said sacks don't matter; I lied. Sacks are everything!" Jones said jokingly to reporters during his postgame press conference on Sunday. Jones, along with teammate George Karlaftis, recorded multiple takedowns on Jets quarterback Geno Smith in the victory, and Ashton Gillotte also got one.

Jones made history on Sunday with his sacks, passing Tamba Hali for second all time in Chiefs franchise history. He now has 90.5 career sacks, all recorded during his 11-year tenure in Kansas City. He trails only Derrick Thomas, who set the franchise record with 126.5 sacks.
