I think you're forgetting about that whole having to play on the road thing. (see BUFFALO 26-16) Shoot, with 4 out of your first 5 PLUS a BYE at home - no wonder...

Your Passing O gained what, 150 yards? Have to use shovel passes to get TD's for guys who can't catch down field.

It was a closer game than it should have been and you know it.

I will agree that it was closer than it should have been. And yes, our passing was bad. But we never trailed. We spent the entire game up by at least 7 and iced the game when it mattered. And you're just jealous of the shovel pass. a TD is a TD. Our coach is one of the most creative offensive minds in the league. You just wish that the Donks had a coach that could come up with such creative plays that nobody can stop them.

Yep, that play was a thing of beauty. Get the D worried about your big time playmaker, then flip the ball to a lesser known guy for the easy score. Genius play design!

Denver is in major trouble then because Andy Reid is the best at stressing LB play. That and Justin Simmons is why we embarrassed you the last time we played.

I always worry teams will attack our LB's, especially Davis.

I like our new DL and they have a chance at shutting down Hunt and then going after alicks.

Broncos didn't trail vs Chuggers either. You guys didn't trail because Rivers (who should retire with Big Ben this year) threw a pick on their 1st drive.

It is not like aleicks drove the length of the field for 17 points. It was a nail biter. I saw your game day thread.

By all means, go ahead. Andy will change it up and burn you on the outside or the middle of the field leaving your LB's and DL helpless just like he did last time.

With this play:


This play:


Or this play:


And then when you try to adjust to cover the screens on the outside, Andy will do this and run Kareem.



Good luck

You had to be perfect to beat the Bills? Lmfao Good Lord.

[New World Order]

Bills had 70 yards in penalties, dropped balls all over the place and at times went conservative which halted drives.

Denver didn't need to be perfect at all.

Dude - seriously? If you saw the game, KC lead from start to finish and most of the time by double digits. Your game against them was at HOME. BIG difference and you barely "eeked" out a 3 point win. For whatever reason, they were a poor kicker away from tying the game IN Denver. I bet they beat you when you visit them, because Denver has serious issues on the road.

Interceptions from pressure on the quarterback/good coverage don't count according to Kranz.

I just watched the game...it wasn't too bad...a good, hard fought battle between two 8-8 teams.
