Football AFCW: Week 11 - Page 17

Mile High Mania · 01:27 PM

I feel like I'm having that moment in 'The Jerk' when Navin R. Johnson realizes the phone books just arrived. "It's here - It's here... Chiefs @ Broncos, sounds like your typical assholes are coming to town."

Anyway, this is what everyone around here has been clamoring about for months now, the only blemish is that it's 8-1 vs 9-0, but sole possession of first place is on the line here, and there's absolutely no lack for drama.

As I type this, the Manningverse is all lit up about the MRI that will be performed today and while it's definitely a concern, I don't see this being a case where he's missing the game. If that were to happen, then all bets are off as the 6'7 Sasquatch would see his first action... but again, that ain't happening.

Through 10 weeks, we have the following:

Chiefs 9-0
Broncos 8-1
Chargers 4-5
Raiders 3-6

Three games that matter, but really only one of any real importance as it relates to the race for the Division crown.

Raiders @ Texans
Neither team is really any good right now, but both have the potential to win this game. I'm keeping it easy here and sticking with the home team. Houston has better playmakers across the board, IMO. And, I like what Keenum has been doing. The Raiders look ... well, like the Raiders. I think it could be a fun game to watch, possibly, but the Texans win this one by 10.

Texans 27 / Raiders 17

Chargers @ Dolphins
As I type this, the Dolphins are in all kinds of disarray and preparing to battle the Bucs on MNF. So, no clue as to whether or not they're rolling into this game with a win or a loss.

Either way, I don't think it will matter as I believe the Chargers when this "battle of the coastal teams". San Diego has talent and they can put up points, but their defense is rather lame. I think this could be a good game, but the Chargers win this one after a big letdown at home vs the Broncos. Chargers fans will be teased into another few weeks of "maybe we can get a WC spot" before ultimately being disappointed after their team loses 4 of their final 6 games at the hands of Denver, KC (twice) and the Bengals.

Chargers 30 / Dolphins 17

Broncos vs Chiefs

There's not much more that can be said that isn't already being hotly debated on 72 other threads regarding this epic matchup. The Chiefs stroll into Denver with a perfect 9-0 record coming out of their bye week. The Chiefs are relatively healthy and determined to prove to everyone that they are without a doubt the best team in the land.

The Broncos slipped up against the Colts, and their defense has given up a fair amount of points and yards to every team they've played this season.

Every bit of success that Denver has is directly related to Manning - big shocker and with the ankle issues and the banged up Oline... there is cause for concern. The good news is that while the Chiefs have a nasty defense, their offense is fairly pedestrian.

I noted in another thread that if you were to compare Denver's production at home and KC's production on the road, it's not pretty for KC. In 4 road games, the Chiefs' offense has produced 5 TDs and 11 FGs, while the Defense and Special Teams has accounted for 5 other TDs. That's really good if you're a KC fan, but on the road in Denver... I think Smith and the passing game will have to become a bit more bold and productive, especially if Denver is successful in containing/limiting Charles.

I've thrown out a few random score predictions over the last week, but they all have one thing in common - I believe Denver wins this one by roughly 10 points. Yes, Manning is banged up - the Oline is banged up. The Chiefs defense is crazy nasty and will do all they can to hit Manning early, hard and often.

Can they be successful with this and can their offense put up 20+ points? I think Yes and No... it should be a fun game.

Broncos 34 / Chiefs 23

I hope we break manning in half. I hated the cheatin donks plenty before this crying dbag pizza salesmen got there. With the media sucking them off 24/7 it only makes it worse.

Fact: Only the injuries "fact" is actually a fact". I'm assuming its the truth anyways

This is a big big big big game. Big step towards home field advantage through out.

Replay of Broncos/Chargers is on NFLN now if you wanna see it again...

The same reason Chief fans think Denver won't... Our offense has proven it can score a lot of points. Granted, they haven't played the caliber of defense KC is. KC has held opponents to few points. Granted, they haven't played the caliber of offense Denver is.

Denver fans = "We will score a lot of points". KC fans = "We will keep them from scoring a lot of points".

Yeah, but I don't see many KC peeps saying we're going to hold the donks to 14. Why? Because it's delusional. This game will be played in the 20s.

I'm taking offense to this 30s garbage b/c my fair-weather donks buddy just blurted this out the other day. He thinks it's going to be smooth sailing for Beluga & Co. It's not.

Guess we will just have to see how it shakes out.

Haven't looked this forward to a game in way too long of time!

Technically, it was January 1994... on the verge of 20.

Yeah, Dumbass

I am trying to think of the last time the donks fans were this arrogant and cocky about their team...... oh yeah it was last years before they choked at home to the Ravens in the playoffs. Guess they havn't learned anything.

I guess we can just shut down the internet and post a rule that you can only talk sports with the view that it's always a 50/50 chance your team will win and your fine with either outcome.

Splitting hairs .. its was the 1993 season, this is the 2013 season, that is 20 years. All other stats are calculated based on the starting year, not the actual date that they occurred. Otherwise you would say that a team had x number of interceptions in 2000 and you would have to include any playoff interceptions from the 1999 season, which they never do. Same thing
