What's the deal with the link?
Are you counting DAT and Bannon as RB picks?

KChiefs1 · 09-25-2017, 06:32 PM

Donks vs Faid game isn't on prime time?

Weird

Easily the best game of the week after the Chiefs vs Redskins game.

Hopefully they flex it.

No one wants to see Seahags/Colts

No flexing the first half of the season.

Teams lose games on the road, that is why they are usually underdogs in betting lines.

Broncos get to help you guys out this week, they will be back on top of the division if the Redskins play half the game they did last night.

Redskins are healthy and playing well. Cousins should be able to pick apart that weak secondary. Rivers is a terrible QB, a vet like that shouldn't make 3 throws right to the D. Siemian is still only a 2nd year kid plus I thought he got his bell rung, those INT's were way off looked like he was seeing double after getting hit in the head on a scramble.

Congrats on 1st place. If you get through the next 5-6 weeks winning behind a QB throwing for 150 yards or less you guys are for real. Hunt looks unstoppable. Not sure how he dropped into the 4th, did he beat women or kill puppies or did teams just undervalue him because of the small school he played in? Eeking out a win on the road vs a 5 win team looked harder than it should have.

Your team has been weighed, measured, and found wanting.

Your butthurt is duly noted.

Maybe next weekend will go better for you?

So are you just pretending you weren't watching week 1 or what?

The thin air effect is mainly a factor the first couple weeks. A pissed off Faid team to boot...Uh oh

I lol'd.

I used to think that the thin air advantage was a bunch of horse shit, but now I'm not so sure.
There seems to be quite a bit of evidence to back said theory up.

EDIT:

The CJ comment was to refute your second point: "the best they can do is an old gimp cut from the Chiefs".

De'Anthony Thomas is a WR and has always been a WR since Kansas City drafted him.

PFR takes the data given to them at the time of the NFL draft. They don't pay that close of attention to what position a player actually does in his career.

Do they still list Ty Montgomery as a WR, or did they convert him to RB when the Packers did?

Dante Hall was drafted as a RB. He played WR in his NFL career.

How about Terelle Pryor? QB or WR?

What the **** is Julian Edelman?

And EVEN THEN, the Chief and Broncos are tied in terms of RBs drafted.

The only difference is the Chiefs know how to draft them, and Denver doesn't.

Ok, so they drafted the same number. Neat.

I guess if FB's and WR's count as RB's you'd only be mostly full of shit, instead of completely full of shit.

DAT was obviously an RB coming out of college. He had more than twice as many carries as receptions in his college career.

No. De'Anthony Thomas was drafted with the intent of being a WR. I don't see what's so ****ing hard to understand about this.

Antwaan Randel-El was only ever a QB in college. He never once played a down of QB in the pros.

Stop being a ****ing idiot. Your GM can't draft RBs. Ours can.

staylor26 · 09-25-2017, 10:21 PM

How some of you Broncos fans even think it's arguable which organization does a better job drafting is really beyond me. It's not even close.
