Talked to numerous denver fans in person today, and the consensus seems to be that the sky is falling...

It's about time we dont have to be the punchline to jokes

*curtsies*...I've been pimping that since the NFL gave Papa John a lead-filled trophy. The only thing with more illegal chemicals festering in Manning's bloodstream, is the pharma-meat in those crap pizzas.



The sweet kiss of corruption.....not surprised it was the very first person he found after the sham.

I said that the two off-seasons...post-Manning would define him as a GM...he didn't disappoint.

Hmm... Blacktop inaccurately says the Broncos have 1 road game in 7 weeks.

I point out they have 4 road games in first 8 games, but I'm stretching it out. :-) Ok.

Had he just stuck with 'the Broncos have 4 home games in their first 5'... yeah, I'd likely just leave that alone.

But he was bashing the Donks. You happened to be defending them. This is a Chiefs site. Of course I'm going to call you out instead of him.:-)
Besides, he just missed one game. 2 road games in the first 7 weeks of the season is still pretty skewed. It certainly does give the Donks an advantage.

I get it... but, they pay for it to close out the season.

4 of first 5 at home
3 of next 5 on road
4 of next 5 on road
final game @ home

So, they have 7 of 10 on the road between 10/22 and 12/24. It evens out across the season and if they get a cushion early and they're not a good team, it will balance out.

I'd rather alternate the first 8 equally and have 4 of the final 6 at home, like KC has this year.

Donx schedule always favors them at home early, to cruise to the playoffs.

that and the thin air.

same as it ever was.

4 out of 5 to start is rather egregious.

You guys aren't looking at the big picture. Denver will get off to a fast start, the fans will build up a large amount of false hope only to be crushed when they have to play 7 of 11 on the road.

Probably similar to last year, only they don't have a god a D-Coordinator to carry the entire team through miracle wins.

Chargers are gonna smoke them in game 1 at home. Book it.
[Reply]

Nope.

SD will end up with a better record but they won't win right off the bat...
[Reply]

This! I don't like the schedule because it is not balanced.
[Reply]

I don't know if they will end up with a better record but I do agree the Chargers lose.
[Reply]

This shit is gold.
[Reply]

Every year bro - same crap - front loaded home games for a better start... Every year we talk about it, and every year you preach how you don't like the back end of the schedule. And here we are again...
[Reply]

Yep. It's really beyond ridiculous now. But...but...but...its merely a coincidence and the back end they are on the road more... :-)
