Anyone else a little worried that the Broncos are going to mail it in and stick us with the 5 seed?

Why would we expect otherwise?

Of course they're going to **** us.

We swept them so they're obligated to help us

The Chiefs put themselves in this position with the losses to TB and TEN. No reason to think Denver will do us any favors.

That would be the nice thing to do!

As long as we don't have to face any 2nd year QBs playing their first game in Arrowhead in the playoffs, we'll win it all!!!!!

Talib will shoot himself again to **** the Chiefs.

Pretty much.

Andy "icing" Succop has us where we are now (among other dipshittery-istic moves, yes. But that one instance could have saved us counting on a pissed off Bronco team to try and help us in any way). Pretty crazy how things shake out.

Like Trevor Simien?

Our fate lies in the hands of Matt McGloin.

Amended to add "Heisman winner"

I'll take "Phrases I Never Thought I Would Ever Hear for the Chiefs" for $1000, Alex

Paxton Lynch will beat the raiders

I bet we lose to the chargers because chiefs

Yep. Plus, Denver is flat out terrible and on a downward spiral having lost 7 of their last 11. They played like they already packed it in yestetday with evetything riding on the outcome. The Raiders will beat them without Carr. Id be very surprised if Denver even shows up.

no way they won't play to win.

I disagree.

I think that "moving on to next year" means looking at some younger players, not mailing it in. And in some cases, those younger players perform better. You don't think those guys want to show something for Elway and Kubiak to think about?

They hate the Raiders just as much as they hate the Chiefs. Do I think that means they'll win? Not necessarily. And yes, this is completely on us for crapping ourselves in a couple of key games. But I expect that they'll show up and give an honest effort.

It all depends, do the Donkos want to help the Faid or us. I don't think they "want" to help either team. I think they will be playing the game for reasons that are solely based on what is best for the donkos. I think Elway and Kubiak would like to finish above .500 on the season. It would also do their team some good to be able to finish with a win and whip up on another team in the division.

Treatin' it as a pre season showcase!

Lil' Donkey's Revenge, served ice-cold.

This is the difference between a winning season and a .500 season. I'd think they'd be trying to win. Why is Paxton Lynch considered sure-fire "next year"? Simien was apparently considered the better choice to actually win as recently as yesterday. He came into the season with the same amount of starting experience.

Not sure when people are going to remember that NFL contracts are not guaranteed. There will be Broncos on both sides of the ball playing for jobs. They're gonna lay down and possibly piss that away because Andy Reid had a lineman throw a TD pass? The Broncos may lose the game because the Faid are a better team this year but it won't be because they dog it to **** over the Chiefs.

#5 seed doesn't scare me a bit. We get to kick the Texans ass and then the Raiders ass while New England takes out Pittsburgh.

No. We would be playing at ne in your scenario.

I could easily see it playing out like this.

They may want to mail it in to stick it to the Chiefs, but I have a feeling they will like what the Raiders would do to them in their own house even less. The Raiders and Del rio would absolutely run the score up on them if they aren't trying. If fans didn't like the Poe TD they are going to be really insulted with the Raiders backup QB having a romp in Mile High.

Raiders will rape Denver.

Not necessarily. #5 will likely play NE. Unless Pitt loses to Miami at home. The lowest seeded winner will play at N E in round 2.

Good , we'll have fun kicking their ass too. There's not a team we can't beat. But I really don't want Pitt.

Next year? That's next Sunday so they'll be ready!

Anybody seen CaseOfDildos Joe?

Denver wins with defense. Who gives a damn about their offense?


You know that defense is going to want to destroy the Raiders.

It's hard to TRY to lose.

Exactly. They won't go down without a dogfight.

Precisely, Elway's ego is too fragile especially at the QB position and Paxton had better work out because his o-line draft picks sure aren't.:D

In all fairness though Elway has had some very good picks especially his 2012 draft apart from Osweiller.

http://www.espn.com/blog/denver-bron...-elways-tenure

Kubiak pretty much summed it up. They were 7-3 with an 8-point lead at home and 3:00 left. They win that one and it's next to impossible that they don't make the post-season.

Fortunately, we ripped their hearts out and that led to complete quitfest we saw last night.

Hopefully, they have some pride and don't want to go into the post-season losing to the Raiders at home. But if they play Lynch I can't see a Denver win - dude is worse than Simien.

I really hope the Broncos/Elway trade a bunch of picks for Romo.

Denver just isnt very good right now. If Oakland lines up and wants to run on them theres nothing Denver can do about it. Oak oline is a big mismatch for Den dline.

Yep. Marty ball scoring TDs chewing up the clock. It will be a close game for sure because McGloin will get initiated with Miller.

:thumb: Romo rivals Lenny Dawson always getting hurt IMO. A potato chip, touch him and he breaks.

He better not **** us!

Let's hope the Poe jump shot didn't put Kubes over the edge.:D

KC embarrassed that defense. If you think they won't come out and be physical and pissed off this weekend, you're crazy. They're prideful.

The Broncos are sitting there realizing they basically get to choose who gets the 2 seed.

Exactly and they hate the Raiders. They don't want to be embarrassed two weeks in a row. They will be rolling 100%, will it be enough? I guess we will know soon enough.

Assuming we beat SD which will not be easy. Because psychologically it will be a real challenge not to want to look past SD. Reid must drill into their heads not to be any less intense with SD because we must beat them to have at least a chance to have the 2nd seed and then beat whoever's ass in Arrowhead in front of all their beloved fans in the playoffs !!

Awwww baby, you KNOW it gonna' be nuthin' but STRAIGHT 'Tiecher Ball'( mailin' it in )up in that donkey-bitch by the 2nd half!

.


Denver has too much pride to lay down.

So you think the Raiders win then ?

You would think being defending SB champs but then sub-consciously you are dealing with multi-millionaires who already have a ring knowing they are not going to the playoffs in a d-line facing the biggest strongest running offensive line in the NFL will not be motivatingly fun for them and the fact that Denver has no run game to offset favors McGloin more than Lynch IMHO. Both are young and still learning and it will be whoever has the run game that will win and we know who has the run game.:hmmm: Besides psychologically Oakland has already defeated Denver which is HUUUUUUUGE !!

That entire stadium will be reduced to a large, steaming pile of orange and blue innards.

I'd almost venture to guess there's never been one coach that's ever told his team to lay down and lose.. For one players make that decision, not coaches.. Kubiak can control stuff like punting with inches to go and shit like that but naw... players have way to much pride to try and lose...

Nervous about this happening.

Oh yeah !!!

Gee Thanks Obama!

Plus Raiders are a division rival. There's going to be trash talking during the game and the Broncos are going to more than likely get pumped up and want to win.

Raiders will have to earn the W just like we did.

Best case for KC is something trash talking happens early in the game that fires Denver up. Some talk in the media during the week would be ideal but unlikely.

I wouldn't fret too much about Lil' Chargy, that franchise is currently in a state of AIDS.

The media is likely more enamored with Brady and Big Rape right now and could care less about Denver now that Peyton has left the building, and that there is no more Peyton-Superbowl garbages to fill the airwaves with.

I meant if a Raider came out and said "we could be Denver with our 3rd string" or something like that.

Well now that would be fun, yes. :D

Seems likely

San Diego has to feel like shit after losing to Cleveland

Seriously they just lost to Cleveland

Thats it in a nutshell. If Denver stops the run they will win.

The Broncos are terrible. They've lost 7 of 11 and are poorly coached. They cant run and cant stop the run. The Raiders will beat them even without Carr.

Yeah, I just cant envision a scenario where an NFL team loses on purpose

Nobody wants to play a game that they don't want to win. Nobody wants to end the season on a shitty note. If nothing else, they may think of it as winning with Lynch to give him a positive springboard for next season.

But it sucks that we have to depend on the damn Donkeys...and oh yeah, we have to win against a pissed off Chargers team playing their last game in that stadium.

It's gonna be a helluva Sunday.

Denver can win but they have to stop the run to have a chance. I just dont like Denvers Dline against Oakland oline

Week 9 Rushing Yards OAK 218 DEN 33

We're getting the 5 seed. Embrace it.

I bet he is telling the players something similar, but it has more the sound of, "We need to move onto evaluating players to determine who will be here next year." i.e., if you want to be here next year, you better start playing better.

Could it be a big ol TRAP?

I have been reading the Mane. A bunch of butt hurt, bitch made pussies over there. They would rather sit everybody and give the game to Chokeland to **** us over. **** those punks.

You mean like they came out physical against the Raiders last time they played us? Denver has a lot of injuries up front on that DL, and we'll run the ball right down their throats.

**** YOU!

I imagine if the roles were reversed a lot of people over here would be feeling the same way lol

Denver will come out trying to win. They're pros and they have pride. And for a while it'll be close. But as the game wears on and as the Raiders offense begins to pile up yards on the ground, the Donks will become dispirited and look like they did Sunday night.

Any Raider lead of 9 points or greater in the second half is going to look more like 21 points to the Denver offense.

McGloin sure as hell ain't Carr, but the play action will be there all night for him and he'll be able to do enough to keep the run game going.

As for the Chargers, that's an easy Chiefs win. Even if that team really wanted to win and gave it 100%, they're functioning at about 60% capacity in terms of starting players. Like, say Illinois State was super fired up and the most inspired they've ever been and was playing against Alabama; it wouldn't make jackshit difference. They'd still get walked over like an old piece of juicy fruit on a sidewalk.

The Raiders and Chiefs will both win this Sunday.

I somehow think the Illinois State - Alabama comparison isn't quite valid for Raiders - Broncos.

Denver will still play the game hard. The players and coaches all still have careers. Where the Chiefs or Raiders are seeded in the playoffs probably means **** all to them

Literally go die, bicth

I was talking about Chiefs-Chargers

Oh, perhaps a little more applicable, but I wouldn't discount Chargers that quickly. Rivers makes them always dangerous.
