Yes, and I'm sure we'll see them just light it up because they simply just haven't had to so far, based on what I've read around here at times.

Have you forgotten that we lived thru the best offense/worst defense era too? We had the career day defense, similar to yours.

I don't think we'll score a ton, but is also don't think we will have to.

Yeah, but this Denver defense isn't quite as wretched as what KC once had... 5 of Denver's opponents have scored 21 or fewer points.

Denver gave up 48 and 39 respectively on the road at DAL and IND. Two teams with lots of firepower. Only 3 teams have scored more than 23 points.

Lots of those points were in garbage time with big double digit leads. It is what it is...

The 2003 Chiefs posted 2 shutouts, and held a bunch of opponents to less than 10 points.

Hell, that defense basically won the Denver game in Kansas City.

Just because you guys hold some opponents to small scoring outputs doesn't mean you don't suck.

2003? Maybe your years are crossed, I looked and saw no shutouts and saw two scores under 10 points allowed, another two with exactly 10 allowed.

Splitting hairs here, I think.

I remember when Dallas torched us for 16 points. Rough, rough day.

The interesting part of this game is that our strengths matchup, as do our weaknesses. I can't recall a game in a long time that matched up that way...
