Had an awful dream about a Chiefs loss
With Mahomes sidelined the Chiefs decided to re-sign Damon Huard and Larry Johnson to get their offense going.
The Broncos, dealing with their own issues at QB, picked up Peyton Manning to start.
Everything started out well for the Chiefs. They decided to pound LJ up the middle all game long, and he had 20 carries by halftime. The Chiefs were ahead 21-17 with two minutes left.
As the Chiefs tried to run out the clock with LJ, who had 49 carries at this point, Reid decides to call a halfback pass off a reverse to Hardman. It appears to work, but LJ does not see the open receiver, holds the ball, pump fakes to Hardman, and then is sacked and fumbles. Denver recovers and runs the ball back to the two yard line.
At this point Arrowhead begins to moan and groan, but the Chiefs defense holds on first, second and third down, setting up an epic fourth down faceoff.
At this point Reid decides the defense is tired, so he subs in his backups, who are all children who appear to be no more than six or seven years old at best. He does leave in Emmanuel Ogbah on the defensive line to provide some pass rush.
Miraculously, the children provide excellent coverage - Denver's receivers are all blanketed. Manning sees this and attempts to scramble, but Ogbah sees him and rushes forward to tackle him. He doesn't want to tackle him too hard though, and get a penalty, so he just kind of runs into him.
Manning runs through the "tackle" attempt and scores.
So now it's up to Damon Huard to lead a quick drive. He overthrows or underthrows everyone and the game ends in a disaster.
