Real talk: Can the Texans or the Faid come up big
 

and upset the Donx and can the Chiefs win out against Indy and Sandy Eggo?

I could see the Texans jumping up and biting the Donx as kinda of a spoiler. I don't think the Raiders can but wouldn't it be sweet to see the Donx drop the final two of the season? :)

No. Not gonna happen.

Any given Sunday? I mean they play the games for a reason

Nope, wishful thinking

Not a chance in hell.

This...

Nope, they aren't beating Denver.

Nope.

i'd love it. but i don't think realistically that it would. fairy tale endings and shit.

No.

False Hope.

Can they? Yes..Any Given Sunday.
Will they...More likely to get struck by lightning or hit by a comet.

Nope and nope

I don't think the Chiefs will win out.

Both have nothing to lose. Denver's #1 seed is not locked up

Oakland = Hell

Yep. Denver is gonna lose the next two games.

Nothing to lose and something to prove....every team with a bad record wants to knockoff a playoff team either out of the playoffs or significantly change their playoff seeding

I had a better chance of winning the Powerball last night..... FTR, I lost, didn't win.

Denver will not lose another game in the regular season.

No.

Don't even set yourself up to be disappointed.

Embrace the 5 seed. And embrace the fact that if we keep playing up to this level, we will absolutely slaughter the Colts.

Slaughter.

+1 for believing, farmer.

Nope

No.

Manning is gonna want to set the all time TD record for TD passes as high as he can, so that spells doom against both of those teams...unless Tonya Harding gets involved.

Yeah, but neither of those teams are good enough to sniff the donks jockstraps let alone carry them

I hope so but yeah it's not going to happen

I could see the Texans being more of a threat than the faid - but there is hope - they still have to line up

Doubt it, but I am hopeful.

If you'd asked me a week ago if I thought SD could go into Denver and win I would have said no. Anything can happen. Houston is the better shot, obviously.

There's a big difference between Phil Rivers and Matt McGloin or Case Keenum.

There's also a big difference between SD's defense and Houston's.

SD- 26 overall.

Houston- 3 overall.

:rolleyes:

Pipedream but still not impossible. Any given Sunday.

With the recent developments, there is a chance that the Broncos could end up having to go to New England if the chips fall right. How funny would that be...

I'm worried about us, just doing our part.

Raiders beat Denver. Chiefs win AFC West.

Being Chiefs fans & not understanding "shit happens"????????????????

A cold, snowy, blustery day in Denver could easily affect the Manning negatively.

It does, but not typically in the Chiefs favor. We're the 5 seed, and that's not a bad thing IMO

If the Raiders can put up 31 on the Chiefs, they can do at least that against the Broncos. Nothing is over yet.

It is amazing how many here on CP are scared to even hope because they fear disappointment so much.

I don't think Denver is going to lose either game, but I'm not afraid to hope they will. Fear of emotions is for pussies.

Houston would the better bet. Peyton probably took note of the Faiders' ability (or lack thereof) to cover screen passes.

I hope so. Cause I get to go to home playoff game.

i think using donx
is really really dumb

I don't feel it's setting myself up for disappointment. I didn't think Denver would lose the two they did. If the colts can beat them.... I agree I'm not placing any bets on Oakland or Houston, and it would be "fairy tail" stuff. But I'm sure going to root that way.

Houston/Oakland Chances
 

I some stats for the 2011 season indicating that 7-10 point 'dogs won 25% of the time and 11-14 point 'dogs won 20% of the time. Houston's an early 10 point favorite. So there is a close to 50/50 chance Denver could lose one of the two.

Why are you talking about Clay like that?

I'm gonna go with 'no'.

Keeping the flame alive.

Texans victory.

I think the best we can hope for is that they beat up the broncos and leave them limping come playoff time.

The Raiders and Texans are probably the two easiest teams Denver could go up against to finish the season. I really hope it happens, but it's really, really unlikely.

I think if anybody does it, it'll be Houston, and I don't think it'll be one of those down to the wire types of games where its close, Houston will lose a game like that.

I think if Houston beats Denver, its because they just absolutely ****ing torch that denver defense and just pick apart mannings vertical game. Very unlikely it'll happen, but that's the only team I see picking them off between the two remaining games :P

Probably not happening.

But I still have hope. :D

Crazier things have happened than a flawed team losing a road game in the NFL.

The Texans would need a ****ing miracle but they're the only ones with a snowballs chance in hell to do it.

Anything can happen...

Chiefs vs Colts
Chiefs @ Chargers

Seems to me, you better get to 2-0 in that stretch before you worry too much about what Denver does or doesn't do against the Texans and Raiders.

Yep, good luck in Cali.

Colts are the #4 seed right now, locked up at 9-5 with Cincy and they are the #3 seed.

Patriots are 10-4 and the #2 seed... with @ BAL and vs BUF left.

I don't know what has to happen after the tied overall records, but you know the Colts would like to move from #4 to #2 if they could and with @ KC and vs JAG remaining... they can do it.

Don't look past the Colts.

Case's case for the starting job is over. He posted a new low in QBR and is 0-8 as the starter. If Schaub gets the job back, Houston has a boxer's chance.

I just want to beat Denver in the playoffs AFC title game at Denver, Santa wrap this up for me!!!!!! JC all F day BB

No shot in hell. It'd be a Christmas miracle lol. Houston has the talent to pull it off but Keenum has to play out of his mind.

The Colts aren't very good. They've been getting whooped only to have made miraculous comebacks. It'll be tough in Indy.

Put down the crack pipe and step away from the table.

NYE 2006. SF beats Dungver in Pile High to send us in and knock them out. I've had love for SF ever since, and am really wanting to jump on the Houston bandwagon. If OAK helps us...**** 'em still.

Well, they do face your defense.

We'll be getting Houston back thank you very much. He's been out three weeks and that's why we've had inconsistencies. Our defense is better than yours.

Ya who would've thunk it.

Houston managed 3 points yesterday. Go Raiders!

Anything is possible.

Manning sprains his right pinkie....Elway comes off the bench and is so scared he saw his shadow runs over Osweiler on his way to the club box. Donkeys Lose..Profit.

Who thought New England would get beat yesterday?

So ya it can happen

Can they? Yes. Will they? Probably not.

It's better than yours :p

What's the temp going to be...?

i haven't read a single post and I have to reply that neither of those games matter if KC doesn't take care of our own schedule. we have 2 tough games here and we better play better _efense than vs chokeland or we are in trouble!

SD also has Philip Rivers.

Houston has Case Keenum and Matt Shaub.

Raiders have McGloin and Pryor.

None of those QB's are going to keep up with Manning when the Broncos are playing for home field through the playoffs.

No way I bet on it, but the no gronk pats that almost lost to the browns traveling to a fins team that's continued to disprove critics (me) throughout bullygate. Not that shocking to me.

Go Tex, go oak!!!

only way, Houston has any shot at all, is if they start Schuab

Uh, anyone who watches football.

On the road against a division rival fighting for a playoff spot, and without their best offensive player?

Anyone with a brain knew that game would be close.

My prediction: Broncos lose to the Raiders, and the Chiefs lose to the Chargers.

LMAO

I wouldn't take that bet.
Don't hold your breath.
When hell freezes over.
If you like your doctor you can keep your...wait, wrong thread.
