Inside the NFL guys all pick Chargers and Broncos to win...
 
Here's hoping they're wrong on both counts. I think they are, personally.

The Broncos aren't a running team like the Bolts, so Philly will be able to key on the passing game. Jevon Kearse should have a good day! The INFL boyz say that Champ Bailey should be able to nutrilize T.O., but that seems laughable to me.

The Chiefs should be able dispel the myth of the Chargers "D", too. I'm looking forward to a festive Sunday.

Broncos aren't a running team? not sure about that. I think they live and die by the run and the bootleg. But I think the eagles should do well against them. Champ shutting down TO is laughable.

Denver has the #2 rushing offense in the NFL with 158 ypg at 5.0 ypc. The Chargers are the #9 rushing offense with 130 ypg at 4.4 ypc.

Grandma's bridge club all picked KC to win.

hmm...kearse is a brilliant pass rusher but Philly will need to depend on it's LBs and secondary to stop the run. kearse just isnt a presence inside.

zone running = zone defense. the donks will need to capitalize on the play action to win it. Philly's passing looks sharp (they have to), TO will struggle vs. bailey but McNabb will find others to fill in.

if Shanahan manages this one right (i.e. run the football in the 4th Q) it might come down to conditioning.

the HBO inside guys are more often wrong than right (49.3/50.7) when they unaminously agree. it's too good to be true for chargers fans. I think our O-line is ready to get to work. it will be a last minute game and I think our passing game (T.G. to T.G.) will bail us out.

Hopefully this is the last week we'll have to listen to talking heads like Collinsworth go on about how a 3-4 team might be the best team in football. There's at least one power ranking out there on a major site that has the Bolts ranked #3 in the NFL, ahead of teams that have beaten them.

I hope we can pull this one out.

Yeah, they'll all die eventually...

It seems as though everyone thinks the Chiefs are going to get blown away by the Chargers.

I'd like to know why a 3-4 team is being treated like they're 7-0. When did that team become this media darling that everyone loves?

the experts probably think that the chargers are due for a win since they have lost close games. I think they are due for another letdown, Martyball just have the punch needed to win consistently in the last minutes

Probably because the only Chiefs game any of them have seen this year is the disgrace in Denver. :banghead:

Yeah, Denver's ground game doesn't get much production.

KC Jones 10-27-2005 05:47 AM

Chargers should be favored. They're playing at home, their backs against the wall, and top to bottom they are the better team.

MichaelH 10-27-2005 06:20 AM

The "experts" are picking the Chargers. Let's see here. In my opinion aside from the Jets game and the Fins game, the Chiefs have looked mediocre at best. The defense allows too many passing yards and the offense has done almost nothing. Trent Green has 4 TD's in 6 games. The Chargers are against the wall. The bottom line is if the Chiefs don't improve, the "experts" will be correct.
