Football AFCW: Week 10 - Page 3

Mile High Mania · 11-05-2013, 12:43 PM

It's crazy to me that we're entering week 10... the season takes so long to get here and just like that - we're looking at the second half of games. Thankfully, this year, things are really interesting with the AFC West.

Chiefs 9-0
Broncos 7-1
Chargers 4-4
Raiders 3-5

The Chiefs enter their bye week with a perfect record, thanks in large part to their defense capitalizing on every mistake that the Bills threw at them. The Chiefs are staring at a game in Denver, while waiting to see what happens this week in an all important divisional battle down in San Diego.

Raiders @ Giants -
The 3-5 Raiders travel to the 2-6 Giants in a battle that ... few honestly care about.

The Giants are coming out of their bye week on a 2 game winning streak and they're only 3 games behind the first place Cowboys. Neither team is good enough to trust at this point, but given the timing and the location, give me the Giants in this battle.

Neither team is statistically great in any category really, but with the week off, the Giants will come out focused on narrowing the gap in the NFCE and doing all they can to salvage any hope of a run to the division title. The Raiders will make it interesting, but in the end... they are still the Raiders.
Giants 23 / Raiders 17

Broncos @ Chargers -
And, now the fun one... neither team has a defense that makes you smile. The lone difference between them really is that Denver lost @ the Colts while the Chargers beat the Colts in San Diego, limiting them to 9 points. That's a nice win, but its definitely not a sign of things to come in this game.

Both teams bring firepower on offense. Denver leads in most offensive categories, while the Chargers are right up there in the top rankings.

The Chargers' defense allows about 4 fewer points and gives up about 20 more yards per game than Denver. A big difference here is that Denver is -1 on the giveaway/takeway while San Diego is -7 (compared to +15 for a team like KC).

So, anything is possible in this game, but coming fresh off a bye week and traveling to play a .500 squad that just lost in OT to the Redskins... the Broncos will improve to 8-1.
Broncos 37 / Chargers 27

The Manning brothers walk away with wins this week and Denver sets the stage for an epic battle for first place in Denver vs the Chiefs in week 11.

Flame away and party on.

I used to like Papa Johns pizza, now I won't touch the stuff.

Have I ever told you that ****ing HATE Peyton Manning?

I think all of KC has been boycotting their crappy pizza. They are trying to give a dollar to chiefs charity if you order now.

Good. I think that company was doing fine, and can't imagine how Peyton Manning would have helped them, but could be wrong.

I think it was Tamba's kids or something like that. I never liked their pizza to start with and after 1000 manning commercials-even less.

I agree that it is good pizza for the big chains, but I am not buying any as long as they are affiliated with Peyton Manning. Their online ordering system is pretty cool.

We are just going to have to disagree on that.

Mile High Mania · 11-05-2013, 03:18 PM

You can do worse that Papa Johns ... I tend to stick with the traditional italian places around the house for good pizza. If it's for the kids and friends when they have a sleepover, or for one of their teams after a game - no doubt that we're going with Papa Johns over the Pizza Huts and others that are out there.

Absolutely nothing wrong with the pizza... getting hung up on who they pay to be the pitch man is kinda ghey.

All the fantastic pizza options up here, and you ate Papa Johns?

Do we know yet if the Denver/SD game is going to be aired in KC?

Can't imagine they wouldn't air that one here, but who knows.

I think I'd rather they lose against the Chargers in the end.

Let's get one thing straight - We want the Donx to LOSE EVERY week. No need to be Mile High Mule Tool - Faced about anything...

Someone's feelings are still hurt about something... it's ok, big man... KC's likely still going to make it to the playoffs. Question is - does the 19 year drought reach the mythical 20th milestone?

Meh, I am no pizza snob and some of them places really are pretty pricy without the service level of the others. I like Rosati's and Lou Malnatis, but I wouldn't pay a nickel more for it than Papa Johns. I like the pepper and garlic butter sauce as well.

Oh, and a pizza should be sliced like a pie, not in little squares!

Oh and MHM, if you don't speak to companies with your consumer choices, then YOU are GAY!

Would be a boom for KC sports bars if they don't.
