Chiefs Chiefs vs Broncos predictions - Page 14

TLO · 11-13-2013, 07:35 PM

I've enjoyed making these for games earlier in the year, so why not make one for the biggest game in recent Chiefs history?

What I hope happens

Charles has a monster game. He finishes the game with 26 rushes for 158 yards and a TD. He also catches 8 passes for 75 yards.

Alex Smith shows he has the ability to be more than just a game manager, throwing for 263 yards and two TDs. More importantly, he has no turnovers on the day.

The Chiefs defense and special teams come up big. Succop hits all 3 of his FG tries, including 2 from 50 plus yards. The Chiefs defense sacks Manning 5 times, causing a fumble on a strip sack by Derrick Johnson. Marcus Cooper returns a Manning INT for a TD.

Chiefs win 37-28

It's fair to say that winning on Sunday at Denver goes a long way in winning the division. Winning a road division game is essentially two wins because now the pressure is on the other team to win at your place the next time around. That, and I think Denver loses at NE. This game is huge. I could see Denver possibly losing three in a row if we beat them. That bye couldn't have come at a better time for us, and Manning dinged up couldn't have come at a worse time for Denver. We'll see soon enough.

San Diego could very well be fighting for its playoff life at that point in the season. Indy has had one bad game, and I actually agree that team is on the way down, but I need to see a little more before I believe the St. Louis game is more than an aberration. And Washington... yes, up-and-down this season, but that team has a formula that could give the Chiefs some trouble on the road (mobile quarterback who is a threat to run, good running back/running game).

And I didn't say they WOULD lose all of those, just that 2 or 3 from that group wouldn't completely surprise me.

After beating three teams with a combined 9 wins by a combined 17 points over the last three weeks, I'm not sure why anyone would see ANY team on our schedule as a sure win.

Is Washington a good team? Nope.

Is Indy moving in the wrong direction? Looks like it.

But we haven't exactly looked great against poor teams - not sure why you are being ridiculed for thinking those teams could trip us up.

Because the defense is holding teams to 12 points a game.

I can't imagine Indy at Arrowhead, with their deficiencies, beating the Chiefs in December.

Denver has KC, NE and KC again.

Even IF both teams continue to play as they've been playing all season, Denver has a tougher road, IMO, than the Chiefs.

I couldn't imagine a Houston coming into Arrowhead with a third string QB and playing the Chiefs to a 1-point game either, yet it happened.

I don't think NE will be as tough to beat as they have been in the past. Even after coming off playing the Chiefs I think that's a very winnable game for Denver. I hope I'm wrong but from what I've seen the Pats are starting to fall off.

Not to mention that every team left on our schedule is capable of shutting us down offensively. Because that's what every team that we've faced so far this season has done, whether their defense was good or not.

Although, yes, maybe the defense keeps scoring touchdowns. Maybe the steady increase in points allowed stops and we go back to single-digits allowed in half our games. Maybe we stop seeing defensive breakdowns leading to long plays and games that are looking like we're right on the verge of a blowout heading the wrong direction.

A cursory look around the NFL this past Sunday, during the Chiefs Bye, would show terrible outings by many playoff contenders. The Bengals and Ravens were awful, the once great Steelers worse, the Broncos couldn't score in the second half against a lame San Diego team, the 49ers had 91 yards passing, etc. and so on.

Too many people in this forum focus solely on the Chiefs deficiencies yet fail to recognize that 95% of NFL teams have far more issues.

It's implied.

The Broncos of course can continue at this pace but the Chiefs can't.

That's all I keep hearing from the national media and "Chicken Littles" in this forum".

Wait: So the Chiefs aren't winning the time of possession battle and their games?

Huh?

Oh, so the offense isn't contributing or hasn't contributed?

I think we're watching different teams.

While the Chiefs have most certainly left numerous points on the field, they've only needed a defensive score to win a football game just once, in Buffalo.

I'm sorry, I just don't buy that. Having watched the Colts, Redskins, Raiders and Chargers several times this year, I just don't see how the Chiefs could possibly go 2-5 after the Bye.

That's just unequivocal nonsense.

do you think you are the only one who watches games, Dane?
****ing phone... I'm sure I'm not the one who watches the most here but I usually watch at least three games all the way through each well

I'm sure I dint watch the most out of everyone here

Definitely agree. I wouldn't envy that three game stretch. That's likely the division right there maybe.

I don't think Denver will lose again after they play at Arrowhead. Their last 4 games are against the following teams.

Titans
Chargers
@Texans
@Raiders

Just don't see that happening.

Broncos 48, Chiefs 14

Alex Smith throws 5 interceptions.

You have to throw it in coverage to get INTs

Not trying to steal the thread. I don't have 100 posts yet. I was listening to 104.3 Fm here in Denver today and one of the so called commentators was saying that KC is gonna finish 9-7 or 10-6 at best. No chance at sniffing the playoffs. His name is Alfred Williams. What say you? Are we 0 for the rest of the way, maybe sneak out one more win, or do we have a legitimate chance?
