Now let’s put the smack stick aside for a moment.
For a two-year stretch, the Broncos were the best team in football. I am not ashamed to admit that the Elway/Davis/Sharpe/McCaffrey Broncos team was far better than the Chiefs. “Twice the team” is overzealous hyperbole and impossible to measure. I will say that this Offense-starved Chiefs fan felt considerable envy when the Broncos moved the ball.
I feel the stirrings of that same green-eyed monster when I watch the Colts.
The current incarnation of the orange and blue, however, does not engender those same feelings. It would be overzealous hyperbole and bald-faced smack to describe my feelings towards the current Denver Offense as pity. So, tempting as the opportunity is, I will simply say that Griese will be a good [not great] QB very soon, perhaps as soon as next season. I will also say that I like the blitz-happy ‘tude of the Denver DC. I like to see teams go after the enemy QB.
The Chiefs and Broncos are both re-tooling this year. The Chiefs are undergoing a youth movement with rookies littering the field and the Broncos are slowly adjusting to life after losing the best QB, HB & TE in football. Neither team is twice as good as the other, as much as I would like to make that claim for my beloved Chiefs.
