Week 7: Let's talk about the Broncos

[TLO]

Discuss

[Why Not?]

Way less comfortable with this game than I was a month ago. They can run the ball and their D line played great today. I’m 60% we win like a 24-17 game. Wouldn’t be shocked at all at this point if we lost, however.

[Jerm]

They've run 2 in a row, this is their Super Bowl, and I can see Lindsay running up and down the field on this team...

Not exactly confident...

[TLO]

I don't particularly care fot this matchup. The Broncos play defense, and they can run the ball.

However.

Their QB and WR situation is putrid.

Vegas says Chiefs -4.5

What say you?

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

We lose. Our defense has a me first type of mentality

[Buehler445]

Fuck Donk Forever.

[TLO]

We lose. Our defense has a me first type of mentality

You and our defense share that mentality.

[Three7s]

This defense is going to stop Lindsey? Yeah, no.

[TLO]

I'd like someone who is a brighter football mind than me to explain what we can do to improve our run defense. I tend to want to blame our LB's, but is our line that bad?

You could blame personnel, but I think it comes down to toughness and effort. I'm not seeing much of either.

[loochy]

They're going to give us multiple anal fissures

[TLO]

Once we get Fisher back, (and Watkins for that matter), I'd like to see us be a lot more aggressive on 4th down. If the front 7 truly can't stop anyone, why not live and die with the offense?

[TLO]

They're going to give us multiple anal fissures

No, I think Fisher is still injured. I don't think he'll play.

[Hammock Parties]

Until Denver shows they can beat Mahomes, they can't.

Chiefs by 10.

Clark rapes Flacco.

[RaidersOftheCellar]

This defense is going to stop Lindsey? Yeah, no.

Who did this defense stop last year?

[kcpasco]

Refs will huddle and disallow a TD.

[Three7s]

Who did this defense stop last year?
No one.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Yep Tyrann Mathieu said the same thing after the game. Basically calling out each position group and saying we need to play for one another instead of by ourselves and u til we do start playing together our defense will continue how it is

[Megatron96]

From the beginning of the season our DTs weren't playing their gap assignments correctly much of the time. Who's to blame for that exactly is up for debate. In reviewing some of the games I saw Chris Jones blow his assignments more than a few times. Sometimes Nnadi wasn't shedding his blocks, sometimes he didn't play his assignments right. But he seemed to be playing his assignments correctly more often than Jones in the first two games.

No LB on the team is playing well against the run. Hitchens, the starter at middle LB was almost comically wrong with his pre-snap reads. A few times I found myself yelling at the TV, "no you idiot! Move to your left one!" Not a good sign when a former second-string high school football player knows better than the professional.

He's also really slow to react, which is probably a lack of confidence. Today whoever we had in at middle LB wasn't much better. They all lack aggression or a real nose for the football.

[Megatron96]

Chiefs will win this one, mostly because Flacco is Flacco.

I was watching some all-22 of the defense over the past few games. There was a play against the Lions where Hitchens had a completely obvious gap to shoot through right in front of his face, no OL in sight, and he just stood there and let him run towards him. It just boggles my mind.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Why isn’t Ragland on the field. Only LB who’s worth a damn vs the run

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

I would trade our next 10 first round picks for Keuchly

[bdlangton]

Truly, most teams should go on 4th more often (particularly on 4th and short on the opponent's side of the field). With this team, it's even more to our advantage to go for it than most other teams. If we're just outside of FG range it should be a no brainer to go for it.

[crayzkirk]

Way too soon to be objective about this. Short week, in Denver, after three ugly games. Mahomes is gimpy, defenses are mugging Kelce and the league just declared that if the ball isn't thrown to a CHIEFS receiver, they can be tackled.

Think I saw that play during the game. I threw my shoe at the TV; fortunately I'm not blessed with Mahomes arm talent because I missed the TV entirely.

[493rd]

We have to hope that Flacco will chuck us a few, because it seems unlikely we stop Lindsay and Freeman. Oh, and we probably give up Courtland Sutton’s breakout game.

Zero confidence going forward

We traded for a thumper linebacker and refuse to use him situationally.

[Megatron96]

What I've read says that Ragland isn't athletic enough to play in coverage.

[manchambo]

On one hand the chieves have looked susceptible to a team like denver the last two weeks.

On the other i think the chieves are too good to drop 3 straight.

Chieves.

[TLO]

So we've come to being afraid of the 2-4 Broncos led by Joe Flaccid.

This season has a little something for everyone!

[kcpasco]

Maybe we can score a TD. Then the refs huddle for 5 minutes and give the Broncos 6 points instead.

If the defense blows this game- Andy should be fired on the spot. He has lost complete control of this team.

Mahomes owns Denver. 45-24 chiefs

[chiefforlife]

I am seriously disappointed by these last couple of games.

BUT, I believe we will go into Denver and dominate. Yes, dominate!

This game will not be close.

GO CHIEFS!!

[kcpasco]

I’m sorry but we lose this game. I don’t trust the officiating to be fair and I don’t trust fat Andy.

[Mile High Mania]

C’mon... KC wins by a FG. 27-24

[notorious]

C’mon... KC wins by a FG. 27-24

This will be one of those oddball games where Denver runs for 300+ yet still loses.

[carcosa]

Chiefs will win.

[FloridaMan88]

Denver is the worst team... at least on paper... that the Chiefs will face to-date.

So there is that.

[mr. tegu]

This game can only tell us bad things about the team. We should win, and if we do no big deal. It won’t mean things are corrected and it won’t really tell us much. But a loss, well that would really cement this as an average at best team that can lose to anyone and will be scoreboard watching for the playoffs in a lousy division.

[Chief Northman]

Broncos by double digits.

They will run for 250+. Mahomes is hurting, and Andy will give up on the run by the end of Q1, and time of possession will be 38-22 in favor of Denver.

Softest broke-dick team in the league....

[wazu]

I can't even get excited for this game. At this point pretty much my only concern is the health of Mahomes. Watching him hobble out onto the field for a Thursday night game in Denver without having Fisher sounds ominous.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

When will Fisher be back?

[Red Dawg]

They will run all over us in embarrassing fashion like all the other teams will the rest of the season. Only way we win is if Flacco acres up the game.

ROFL

The Chiefs haven't lost by double digits for more than 30 games. But it's gonna happen against a team that's 2-4?

Overreaction Planet never disappoints.

[chiefzilla1501]

I don't particularly care fot this matchup. The Broncos play defense, and they can run the ball.

However.

Their QB and WR situation is putrid.

Vegas says Chiefs -4.5

What say you?

I wish that gave me comfort. But you could have put in Nathan Peterman at qb for indy and they would have still run all over us. Doesn't take a great qb to hand the ball off. We have got to be better vs the run.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

We ain’t even last against the run relax. We give up on average 168 yards rushing a game. We are ranked 30th!!

The results will make the rest of us who have hair, pull it out.

I am very uncomfortable with this game.

[wazu]

Not even remotely true.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Also Kendall Fuller to have an x ray on his thumb. Is the same thumb he injured last year

[CoMoChief]

I expect it to be close. I expect Lindsay to go off on KC. No reason to believe he wont...run D is that bad. Nobody should have any amount of faith in that unit for the time being...

Playing up in Denver is always tough...doesn't matter how bad their QB/WR situation is.

The formula is out on how to stop KC.

Run the ball...run it some more. Short intermediate passes. Something that will exploit the living hell out of the Chiefs LB's.

This defense can not stop a HS running game if they had to. They can't get off the field on 3rd down and teams are starting to not only win ToP...but absolutely destroy KC in that category.

Chiefs only had the ball for approx 5-6mins in the 2nd half...did I see that correctly? That's awful. You're not winning jack shit if you only have the ball for 5 or so mins in entire halves of games.

[CoMoChief]

Just wait til next season when this team doesn't have jack shit of a secondary, CB's to be more specific.

Team very well may give up 40ppg.

They don't have one now, the only thing that saved them from total embarrassment yesterday was Will Fullers hands.

[ChiliConCarnage]

Fuck the Donx!!

[Mile High Mania]

I think Denver can win if they pound KC with the ground game. If the defense lets Pat do his thing, KC wins.. they have to get pressure and hit the hobbled QB. I’m optimistic, but not seeing a win at the pace their offense is going with scoring. Too many FGs.

[Mecca]

If this is a loss we're looking at 4-4 cause Green Bay is gonna wax this teams ass if they keep playing this way.

[RunKC]

I expect this team to play with desperation. They lose this game and they are now potentially not in first place in the division and could be out of the playoff mix.

This is a short week and Andy is a better coach than Fangio. Denver is also beat the hell up and didn’t have 2 corners yesterday, likely not Thursday either.

If we lose this game, it’s panic time.

We just played Houston who was missing both CB's....how about Indy?

We're going to see the same shit all year, run run run, isolate LB's in coverage, deep shots and then beat the fuck out of Mahomes.

[Tombstone RJ]

If Mahomes is healthy, I expect KC to win by at least a TD. Now, if Mahomes is gimpy on his ankle, then I expect it to be a close game. Remember, the Broncos offense is anemic, it's like trying to watch paint dry. It don't know how many times Flacco could simply scramble 7 yards for a first down but instead he gets sacked or makes a bad throw or generally does something uninspiring.

Now the Broncos defense, although struggling with injuries, seems to be gelling and playing better. Fangio has made some adjustments and moves some guys around and it seems to be working. But the simple fact is that a healthy Mahomes can still make plays regardless of how good a defense is playing.

No way will Mahomes be 100% by Thursday...it worries me.

I'm actually quite concerned with this game, seems like wrong team at the wrong time...Lindsay is going to destroy us and I think Denver's D could play well enough to win.

After yesterday, this just feels like wheels come totally off.

[Steve Sewell]

The Broncos suck, have a below average QB, and a ton of players out with injury. Despite that, playing at home on a very short week against a team having trouble stopping the run favors them greatly. I don't know what to think about this game, but it will probably be pretty close.

[kcpasco]

We need to maximize our 5 possessions.

[Mile High Mania]

Thus place... lots of good reading here today, but one would think KC will never win another game after reading all this stuff. Nut up, buttercups... there are 10 more weeks in the regular season.

[lcarus]

If I was Denver I'd run the rock directly up the middle of the Chiefs baby shit soft asses every single play and only pass when absolutely necessary. And when I did pass I'd just throw quick slants and screens.

[Tombstone RJ]

Don't worry, the Broncos offense is pretty predictable. Run on first down, run on second down, pass on 3rd and anything over 5 yards. Then punt. It's amazingly predictable. I keep thinking to myself, like some old timer watching football back in the 1970s "hey, why not pass on first down? Ya know, change it up a little?"

[Coochie liquor]

If they run on every play, why would they ever need to pass? Indy will tell you this. That said Dungvers O line is much worse than Indy or Houston’s. Maybe our D line could get a little pressure, but that’s asking a lot.

Our entire unit on D is going to be worn down after the Colts and Texans bulldozed them them past 2 weeks, playing in thin air on three days rest. Mahomes is gimpy and players are getting frustrated.

The Bronco D has been building confidence and is on the upswing, and you know they will do everything they can to destroy Mahomes behind this putrid o-line.

This is not a good situation right now, and that's going to be obvious to even the most staunch homer after this game. Broncos are going to steamroll us.

It was another :rolleyes: wtf moment from Flacco

Giving up on the season, at this point, in this division, is weak.

And as much as I'd like home field advantage... I'm not sure it really matters that much. Just go into the playoffs healthy. That's all I really want.

I'm not talking about giving up the division. Our main goal is NOT winning the division per se but getting home field advantage in the playoffs and beating the Pats so we get to the Super Bowl.

If we lose again, we have an uphill battle not to be hosting a wild card or worse yet, got forbid somehow we wind up in a tie and have to travel for a WC card. I don't think that will happen but we are making it much tougher than it should be.

There is NO HFA at Arrowhead. We don’t have a history of winning big games there, we sure as hell don’t get calls going our way there. I’d rather be healthy on the road, than beat up at Arrowhead come playoffs. The bad calls we get from the refs can happen just as easily at home as at Fixboro.

Well, Denver hasn't been as dynamic as they could be on offense... settling for FGs over TDs. And, they love to watch the opposing returner run wild at times.

[Mile High Mania]

By the way, I hate being around here this week when it's all "shit has hit the fan" week at Chiefsplanet. It's enough to make me think Denver wins by 12.

Just a bunch of gloom and doom around here. Status quo. The Chiefs are still 3.5 favorites in your house. I say Mahomes goes on to beat you for the fourth time.

[Mile High Mania]

Maybe, he's certainly a hell of a guy to try and contain - near impossible.

In 2016, it took OT to win by 3 in Denver.
In 2017, Butker kicked a FG (off the bar, IIRC) to win by 3 with seconds expiring.
In 2018, KC rallied from 14 down to score the go ahead TD with about 90 seconds on the clock to win by 4. Keenum drives them down to the KC 28 to fail in the comeback.

So, while the Broncos have been less than desirable - the games have been close in Denver. I expect more of the same, if I'm being honest. In each of those 3 games, KC had a consistent threat from the ground... in all 3 games, believe Denver topped 120+ yards and overall the two teams were pretty equal on ground production.

Question is ... can KC run the ball 20+ times consistently and keep drives alive? They haven't topped 15 carries in either of the last 2 games, both losses.

Difference this year - KC's run defense is a great matchup for Lindsay/Freeman and Janovich is healthy. Colts and Texans ran 40+ times each on KC, racking up a ton of yards and keeping Mahomes on the sideline. KC doesn't need to be prolific on the ground, they just need to keep defenses honest and respect the threat... but, it's non-existant right now for KC.

That should be the game plan... grind it out on the ground against a defense that can't stop the run, average 4+ yards a carry.

It's all about whether or not Denver can score TDs and not FGs. It's going to be all about the ground attack Thursday night.

[FloridaMan88]

Denver will easily be the worst offense the Chiefs have faced this year to-date.

Even Jacksonville with Gardner Minshew is better.

The goal is for Mahomes to have a lengthy career with the Chiefs and have a record like 37-0 against the broncos when he retires. And then come back to play the broncos twice a year as an exhibition and finish like 43-0 against the broncos.

Philip Lindsey is the most underwhelming back the Chiefs will have faced thus far.

Lindsey is a fucking overhyped JAG. But hey, SOMEONE has to get the ball on that Donkey offense.

Now the question is if the Chiefs can actually manage to stand where they're suppose to be standing.

I don't think anyone is calling him Barkley junior... he's a solid weapon though. Averaging 4.7 YPC this year, on pace to have about 1,100 rushing yards - similar to last year.

Freeman has about 100 fewer yards on 20 fewer carries - combined, they've been good - not overly great, just good. They could/should look great this week though.

Dime a dozen. Any starting running back with a putrid passing game like the Donks should get at least that.

He's a plug n play JAG that only gets any media attention because the Donks offense is so void of talent.

That of course isn't to say he very well may butt-fuck the Chiefs defense. But like Frank Clark said, every RB off the street is butt-fucking the Chiefs defense.

I hate the Broncos as much as the next guy, but I'm not sure about this. He's averaging over 5 yards per carry in his career.

I think you're having a weird argument... nobody (from I can tell) has claimed he was the next greatest RB sensation. He is a hell of a find in UDFA and playing well. The duo has big upside and they should be employing them more in games, can only help the passing game.

McCoy and the other guy have nice averages, lots of RBs are averaging 4+ YPC, but if you're only running the ball 12-14 times as a team... what does it matter?

Chiefs have the 7th fewest rush attempts as a team through 6 games.. with that defense and your passing attack, there should be a few more attempts thrown in there.

Have you noticed that teams with no QB or receivers always seem to manage to find a RB? They become what people like to call "running teams".

Lindsay is the product of being a RB on a team that has no offensive talent.

Don't worry, the Broncos offense is pretty predictable. Run on first down, run on second down...

That's enough to worry about.

The Chiefs defense gets trampled by the same fucking play over and over again.

The Colts did it, the Texans did it, and the Broncos will do it.

I'll bet Flacco throws less than 20 passes. They will run right up the middle. I know it, Spags knows it, the Chiefs defense knows it, and the Broncos know it...but we still won't be able to stop it.

I really wouldn't be concerned about this game if Mahomes' ankle was 100%, but it's not, and I'm going to be concerned every game until his ankle is clearly 100%. We're just simply not a good team unless Mahomes is at his best. He's the game changer. If he's hobbled, just about every single team in the NFL has a shot at beating us, with the exception of the Dolphins, Redskins, and Bengals because they're beyond bad.

[Bump]

I was hoping they can provide us with a much needed morale booster, but they are on a 2 game win streak so I dunno. I'm definitely starting Phillip Lindsay on my fantasy team and I think that's a no brainer this week for anybody with Lindsay on their roster. And that's sad.

[Hammock Parties]

We are going to smash these clowns. They have already given up.

The #Broncos have held walk-throughs, but no full padded practices just yet as they prepare to take on the #Chiefs on TNF.

To me, this is so simple. Denver must run the ball to have a chance. KC needs to sell out to stop the run at all cost. Make Flacco try and beat them.

If KC can manage to run effectively, it will provide more balance on offense. If that's the case, KC should not have a problem winning.

True... if KC can generate yards consistently on the ground, that obviously helps their machine. If they can make Denver rely only on the pass, yes that's obviously the best path for them defensively.

KC's defense has give up over 180 yards rushing in 4 straight games, though... can they fix that against Lindsay/Freeman/Jano - we shall see.

If we were healthy, this wouldn't be a game. Even with our rush defense issues.

But the Chiefs are dinged up, in key spots, particularly on the OL and DL. That's a real problem, especially since our defense wasn't great stopping the run when they were healthy, and the OL is having a hard time keeping Mahomes clean in the pocket.

Spags is going to have to sell out against the run, IMO. Make the Broncos beat the Chiefs on the strength of Flacco's arm. Hoping to see a lot of run blitzes.

Tyreek. Just having him on the field changes the way defenses play the Chiefs. How that can be exploited is another thing, but it was clearly a significant issue for the Texans on Sunday. Just the cushion they gave him was borderline ridiculous.

[Marcellus]

I don't have a good feeling about this one. Donks strengths are Chiefs weaknesses.

Uh, nope.

We’ll probably see more of this tomorrow and it won’t be called.

It’s so true though. Kelce is absolutely fucking mugged every week and he can’t get a call to save his life. Such bullshit.

[Chiefshrink]

I'd like someone who is a brighter football mind than me to explain what we can do to improve our run defense. I tend to want to blame our LB's, but is our line that bad?

draft better.:thumb:

Stopping the run is typically about filling the gaps in the line; stuffing holes. At the very least, to do that you need DTs that can play their assignments well enough to allow the LBs to actually make the tackles. In other words, you don't necessarily need Pro-Bowl DTs, just DTs that can do their jobs.

Moving on, what's the one thing the Chiefs' defense has lacked since the loss of DJ? a MLB that can actually defend the run.

For this defense to play better against the run consistently, they need to find a real run-stopping MLB like Derrick Johnson.

If Hitchens or whoever can't start playing in a similar manner to what DJ did in his prime, we'll never stop the run between the tackles consistently, period.

I just really don't understand it. When I look at him from 2017, I see a guy who is aggressive at the LoS, constantly filling gaps and attacking. Look at the amount of pulling linemen that he just punishes in the backfield. I haven't seen anything close to this in the two seasons he's been here. I guess he just wanted to get paid.

[KranzDictum]

They've run 2 in a row, this is their Super Bowl, and I can see Lindsay running up and down the field on this team...

Not exactly confident...

Nope, SB50, SBXXXIII, and SBXXXII were our SB's.

You guys are missing about half of the guys we lost in SB48.

I expect Lindsay and Freeman to run up and down on you guys especially with Jones out but at some point Flaccid is going to have to pass. He has been good for ONE 40+ yard pass per game the last 3-4 weeks but we will need one of those a quarter and to get TD's in the redzone, not FG's. I think mmHinomes does enough paired with the child beater to abuse our D and win a game the Broncos maybe make close at the end. Your team has lost leads the last couple games and should have lost at Detroit too.

It will be interesting if Johnson can cover Kelce, he has been a tackling machine and picked off Rivers, should have had 2 that game, but Kelce will show if he was feasting against bad teams or if he can be a stud starter.

Dawson and the other Harris have stabilized the CB position and with Jackson playing like his hair is on fire at Safety the Secondary has suddenly improved. It will really be on Purcell at DT, Walker (who got Gotsis Benched), and Reed to get off their blocks and feast on your backup LT. Would be nice to see Vic move Von around like they used to do with Meck pre-snap so your OL has to make a split second choice on how to double him quickly. Since Chubb went down teams have doubled and tripled Von yet he still had enough pressure last week to cause a couple INT's.

I am afraid that our bad OC will try to feature his 1st round toy, Fant just isn't ready to play as a featured player in the NFL, they need to slowly work him in and give him some confidence, instead they have him drinking from a firehose and outside a few nice catches he has done nothing. Plus his run blocking is terrible. I would have IRMan start at TE and feed him as much as possible.

I would also run lots of play action out of the I formation and use Jano like they did in the 1st game vs you last year where he was an impact player. Then radio went full radio and forgot Jano was on the team. Jano is good at catching the ball out of the backfield.

At the very least I just want to see growth. I didn't have any expectations for a playoff run this year after what Radio did last year and with a 2nd firsttime HC. Vic has been awful with his game & time management and situational awareness along with lack of 2nd half adjustments which have let teams back into games like the Jags and SD.

I expect you guys to win this one by 2 scores but would be happy to see the team making you earn it.

Good luck.

I don't either. He was pretty aggressive and played a physical style in Dallas. From week 1 with the Chiefs he just hasn't been that guy.

If he played anything like that guy from the video this year, we wouldn't be looking for a MLB. I'd be on board with Hitchens.

[TimeForWasp]

I don't have a good feeling about this one. Donks strengths are Chiefs weaknesses.

Plus what ever the records are, the AFC West usually plays tight games.

[TimeForWasp]

We will go fun dimensional on them.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

I’m telling you it’s the scheme. There is a reason why Hitchens and Clark suck ass and look at Steven Nelson rn he’s balling out in Pittsburgh because he’s in a different scheme. It’s time for Andy to get rid of whatever scheme Spags and Sutton have ran

So, get rid of the 4-3 and don't go back to the 3-4.

You talking 4-6 now?

Are some of you guys really afraid of Dungver. Wtf?? Short week, short handed. Don’t matter. We win a close one and run it to 8 straight.

So, you've got zero concerns, eh? That's good.

[Dayze]

I think if the Chiefs can somehow get up by 2 possessions early, and remain productive, they have a chance.

If the offesne plays like they did last week....nope.
Denver is going to follow the same plan everyone else has; Lindsay will go off for 180, and Denver as a whole probably 225 and a shitload of TOP. Defense is going to get embarrassed again. Only way they don't is if the offense come out firing all all cylinders right out of the gate.

Oh, and I'm also excited for the 18+ penalties we'll get.

Frank Clark must think his primary role is a motivational speaker because that is all he does.

How about showing this same energy ON the field, Frank?

To be fair, Coochie liquor has absolutely nothing to do with the Kansas City Chiefs, other than being a fan.

I'm sure the coaches are taking the Denver Broncos very seriously.

[Hammock Parties]

Clark is getting two sacks tonight.

Prepare for RAPE, Flacco.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

I expect more man coverage from us tonight. Flacco is a statue that they won’t be afraid of running around.

Could mean more opportunities for the front to get pressure.

Put your cheap, ugly jacket on and stoke off to getting sacked 9 times.

[ModSocks]

Philip Lindsey is the most underwhelming back the Chiefs will have faced thus far.

Lindsey is a fucking overhyped JAG. But hey, SOMEONE has to get the ball on that Donkey offense.

Now the question is if the Chiefs can actually manage to stand where they're suppose to be standing.

Looked pretty unspectacular to me last night. Getting ankle tackled, couldn't break tackles and got lit the fuck up in pass protection.

Though yelling at Flacco was pretty awesome.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Broncos by double digits.

They will run for 250+. Mahomes is hurting, and Andy will give up on the run by the end of Q1, and time of possession will be 38-22 in favor of Denver.

Softest broke-dick team in the league....
