The "great defense" vs "great offense" debate is always a fun one and we get to see this one put to the test twice in the next month. My guess ... the teams split with both winning at home, leaving us with no real answer.

However, I am interested to know what the consensus is on the total points that KC will yield to Denver - in Denver and at KC. Conversely, I'm interested in knowing what you guys think KC's offense can score against Denver in both locations.

Of the offenses that KC's defense has faced... only 1 is currently ranked higher than 19th in Pts Scored per Game, that's Dallas and they contained them well in KC. If you look at yards gained per game, HOU and PHI are both in the top 10, the rest are beyond 15.

So, overall --- yes, KC's defense is doing well, but they really haven't been tested, aside from DAL really.

On the flipside, Denver's offense has lit it up, mostly against defenses ranked lower than 17th in points allowed per game. The Ravens and Colts are 11th and 8th overall, and Denver still put up big points against them, albeit losing to the Colts.

As well, the defenses they've faced are all average at best (save for OAK) at yards allowed per game with 7 of the 8 being ranked 16th and beyond.

KC presents the Broncos with absolutely their greatest test on paper, as they are right now ranked 1st in PPG allowed and 5th in yards.

Again - I think they split the home games worst case, but if there's going to be a split... sad to tell ya, but I think Denver's offense will stand the test and unless Smith and company can put up 28 points... it will be a Denver sweep.

There's a rude awakening on the horizon with this trip to Buffalo...

Your stupidity knows no bounds.

Denver has played one team with a current winning record and they lost to that team.

The bye comes at a great time for the Broncos... then it's @ Chargers, Chiefs, @ Patriots and @ Chiefs in the next 4 games. That's a strong stretch of games.

The Broncos' defense needs to shape it up - understatement of the season there and the offense needs to continue doing what they do. It was good to see Franklin back on the OL. Nice to see Dreesen step in for Thomas and do well.

I like the trio of Moreno, Ball and Anderson ... 20 touches for Moreno is too much though, I know he's done well, but he'll never be out of the doghouse with me. Keep those guys all around an average in a rotation that limits any from having more than 15 touches and they should be good.

Anyway - can't wait for the next stretch of games, esp the two against KC.

We'll find out how good their defense really is...

Agreed. I hope Julius gets his ankle back to good by the time next game rolls around...

So teams are still stubbornly favoring the pass against the Chiefs even though some of those QBs have been Ryan Fitzpatrick, Case Keenum, and Jason Campbell?

I can't explain it. Look at Washington vs Denver, Morris was having a lot of success, then they just stopped running.

If Denver turns it over 4 times again they will not win either game. They have issues with ball security and just plain being stupid that are being masked by the poor competition just like the Chiefs have offensive issues being masked. That Denver offense leads the AFC in give aways.

Von Miller's attorney told Von not to bother with court. Von brought his suit to Dove Valley just in case. Attorney then called him over.

Arapahoe County Court is a 3-iron away from Broncos headquarters. OK, 3-iron with strong wind at back. Point is, you can get there from here

BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Dumbass.

[CaliforniaChief]

You're coming off a suspension, you need to tidy up your image. You show up in court. And if your attorneys tell him not to be there, then they're as dumb as the client.

He's just stupid. But that's ok.

[Quesadilla Joe]

Watch out rest of the league, Von Miller is back and with a sack, three hits and two hurries, quarterbacks are going to find that out sooner rather than later.

Houston and Hali have only had one game all season with a grade above 4.0. Von has played in two games and already has two games with a grade above 4.0. Houston and Hali are good players, but Von Miller is in a league of his own and has been since his rookie year.
