CHICAGO(AP) – Kevin Long's 1-yard touchdown blast capped an 83-yard drive with 1:57 to play Sunday and clinched a 22-11 victory for the Chicago Blitz over the Birmingham Stallions in a USFL game.

It was the third straight win for Chicago and left the Blitz with a 4-2 record while Birmingham dropped to 2-4.
