Chiefs My 10 Keys to Beating Denver - Page 2

**BossChief** · 11-13-2013, 08:54 PM

1) Dontari Poe pushing that pocket. If he is able to make Manning move left to right consistently, that's gonna give Hali and Houston opportunities to strip that ball and hit the 5head.

2) No drops. We are gonna need every yard. Every first down. Alex needs to be able to get in a rhythm and keep the offense moving and putting points on the board. Dropped passes kill drives and we can't afford to have that happen against a team like Denver. We need to play a near perfect game to win.

3) Hitting Manning. Over and over. He needs to get hit almost every drop back. Force them to get the ball out before they want to and let our guys make plays on the ball. Hitting that egghead early and often without sending blitzers is imperative in winning this one. It's gonna
be cold and he isn't gonna want to move too much to get the ball out. If we can consistently hit him and make his injury really bother him, we can take over the game in the third and fourth quarter. We just need to keep it close until then. IMO of course.

4) Keep Dunta Robinson off the field. Nuff said.

5) Replace Jeff Allen with Schwartz. Allen just gets beat way too much to keep that starting spot.

6) Move Hussein Abdullah into the starting free safety spot. Manning will be targeting Lewi over and over if he is out there. Same goes for Dunta Robinson. From what I've seen since day one, Hussein is the second best safety on this team in almost every measurable way. Faster, more physical, better instincts, better ball skills. Just a better player.

7) Take the ball away without giving up the big play. All 3 of our corners, DJ and Berry all have good ball skills and we need to take advantage of the fact that Manning will be looking to get the ball out early by jumping some of the short routes. It's gonna be COLD and there will be opportunities for big plays in the secondary...we need to take advantage of those chances. 1 dropped pick could be the difference in the games momentum.

8) Eric Fisher will need to show why we picked him first overall and he has his work cut out for him. Von Miller is about as good a player as he will face all year and he needs to have a solid game against him. If Miller is able to run wild and we need to keep a tight end in to block, that's gonna hurt Alex Smiths chances of moving the chains through the air. Which leads me to...

9) Alex Smith needs to bleed that defense for every inch Sunday night. He needs to be pinpoint accurate all night and take advantage of the defense compensating to stop Charles. We need 300 yards from Alex and no turnovers to have a chance. 260 passing 2tds and 50 rushing would be perfect. A rushing td would be an added bonus that is probably needed to beat a team like Denver.

10) Shutting down their running game without giving up too much bad info for play action passing because Peyton will be watching. Their running game is better than in years past and we need to atop it at the point of attack and not force ourselves to committ too much safety help to doing so. If we can do that we should be in good shape on third downs.

If we take care of those things, I think we have a good chance at beating Denver in their place and being a possible superbowl favorite come Monday morning.

We need to control the clock. The Broncos never lose, they just run out of time....

Taking the knee in Pile High would be ****ing awesome.

I didn't read through the whole thread, but I'm of the opinion that if we score more points than we give up, we have a pretty good chance of beating them

Fisher was better last game, but that's not a precedent for hope against Von Miller 9... eh... probably not but you never know. I'd put it at 40%.

10... again, we're going to give up big plays. An aggressive defense has to leave holes on the field. Peyton will find those, and so will the RBs at times.

1, 2, 3: I think we'll be fine. Robinson has barely graced the field at all lately, so that will also happen.

I count 5.5, Boss. If we do 5.5, does that equal a win?

Can we push that up to a 7?

I think 7 is where we need to be.

We really need Poe to do some damage in pushing the pocket back into Peyton's lap. If he has nowhere to step up it'll do a lot to **** up his timing and release. We also need Tamba to put together another AFC Defensive Player of the Week type performance. If he fears the blindside rush after Tamba hits him a couple times, he'll have happy feet all game and will likely fumble at least once. I don't expect Houston to have a great game; Manning will see him coming the whole way..

Honestly, this is going to take a stellar team effort to win this one. If I had to pick a handful of players to have the games of their careers though, it'd be Poe, Hali and Alex Smith. Jamaal's pretty much a constant- that dude is great every game so I'm not worried about him.

ThaVirus · 11-13-2013, 09:46 PM

One thing I've noticed in the 19 games I've watched the Broncos play this season is that they love to pull the guard when running from the shotgun, even in short yardage situations. It's going to be very important for DJ or whoever to recognize what's happening and knife in their quickly to stop them before they get started. We all know Peyton loves to defer responsibility on those critical third downs and check to runs- we just have to be ready to stop it. The Colts, for all the talk about shutting down the passing game, did pretty well at that..

We will destroy them if all 10 happen.

I'd settle for 6 or 7 out of 10. Preferably 1, 3, 7, 8, 9 and 10
