KC was losing 13-17 in the 4th quarter vs TEN and then Succop and Charles put up 13 for the win. I was way off in my thinking there that it could be close and a possible loss.

KC was losing 3-10 at the half and thankfully the D/ST saved the day with 2 TDs in the 2nd half... again, another game where I was way off my rocker in thinking that KC stood a good chance to lose, mainly because of the offense.

I realize that conventional wisdom says that since no team has scored more than 17 points vs the Chiefs, that it's impossible to imagine it happening this week in Denver... but, why? Simply because it hasn't happened yet?

I mean... 7 of the 9 offenses that KC has faced rank 19th or lower in points scored this season. The rankings are 19, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30 and 32. The Cowboys (4th) played horrible @ KC and I said then that's not a shock, look what they did last night @ NOS. Dallas is miserable on the road. PHI... well, they're ranked 11th in offense, nothing too magical there though.

So, again - aside from KC holding 7 of the 13th worst offenses in the league to under 17 points a game, why is it absurd to think Denver will do better in Denver?

I think Denver will score more than 17 on us at their house. It's bound to happen when you have a defense that plays a ton of press man and utilizes a heavy blitz scheme. Peyton will likely have a high completion percentage against us, but not necessarily a ton of yards. The real trick for Denver will be in the red zone - field goals or touchdowns.

And in the interest of fairness - since you've shown what we've done against crappy offenses, just what is Denver's numbers against the crappy defenses they've played?

Which is why I think they may get a lot more field goals and less tds. I'm hoping it's not the case, but 1 td will be 30+ yards, and that may be the deciding factor in the outcome, because I think the chiefs have a great shot at limiting their red zone production where it's a lot more difficult to get space with less room to work the field.

Peyton can't throw the deep wobble.

Want to play that card? The defenses that you've beat up on rank 32, 31, 29, 21, 28, 27. Not to mention you had your worst performance of the year yesterday against the 29th ranked d in the league, LOST to the 21st ranked, and damn near lost to the 32nd ranked.

Don't bring up stupid, meaningless shit if you're not going to do your research first. You haven't played a team that is going to come at you with what our defense is bringing on Sunday night. Take that shit to the bank, boy.

Serious, are you suggesting that Denver almost lost to the Jags? Move along, li'l fella.

No. Dallas is the worst overall defense in the league.

Hell, it all depends on the variable you decide to sort the ranking on...

And, again - I've never claimed the Broncos' defense was stellar.
