I think it was the wind. That, or the guy needs more sleep ... seems to get tuckered out a bit around normal dinner time. [Reply]

Reverse mojo aside, you were CORRECT in predicting that the Chiefs would STOMP THE DONX in Denver, so there's that! :-)
I am not being sarcastic. You go three straight weeks without scoring a single second half point...you don't deserve to be a playoff team. We aren't making it. And if we do...we'll lose to whatever team we play. It really doesn't matter. [Reply]

You are likely still going to make the playoffs. You're one of the few of your kind that has half a brain - so use it and see this for what it is. This is simply what happens when you don't have a HOF QB to bail you out week to week. Gonna take some time for the players, and the fans, to get used to it. As Chiefs fans, we're used to it and when we win, MANY players contribute. Denver is still a good team, but is not used to doing what it must do now in order to win. A good dose of reality / humility might be in order before they learn. Your fan base sure needs that.
Oh - and BTW, I sure hope your prediction is RIGHT! :-) [Reply]

If Denver plays like the have the in the first 2 quarters of the last three games, they should beat CIN by a TD, esp with Dalton out. They are a solid team, but in Denver against the Denver defense, they should be held to 14-17 points.
The last 3 weeks have proven anything can happen. [Reply]

What's happening isn't really new for Gary Kubiak coached teams. His adjustments or lack there of are what's killing this team. It ain't the players per se.
2006 Houston 3.7 points per 3rd quarter
2007 Houston 3.8 points per 3rd quarter
2008 Houston 4.9 points per 3rd quarter
2009 Houston 4.7 points per 3rd quarter
2010 Houston 6.8 points per 3rd quarter
2011 Houston 3.9 points per 3rd quarter
2012 Houston 6.3 points per 3rd quarter
2013 Houston 3.5 points per 3rd quarter
2014 Baltimore (as OC) 5.7 points per 3rd quarter
2015 Denver 3.1 points per 3rd quarter [Reply]
One thing that is concerning for Kubiak is how his teams collapse. Not that Denver is collapsing yet. His teams have the tendency to fade Dow the stretch [Reply]

Somewhere, Dan Reeves is thinking "that's what you do with a lead" and smiling. John should be thinking "hated it then and I hate it now".
And, if he's healthy ... Manning will play, dunno what his status is, but they'll play him. Crazy to think that at 10-4, they're sensing panic and unrest... but, that's what it is with the way the AFC is shaping up.
Denver still controls their destiny for the #2 spot, but they have to pull the head from the ass to get it done. [Reply]

He's got a release like Leftwich thus why I call him BrockLeftwich. IMO y'all are better off with Brock and his mobility. Manning is going to get killed. If we face you again and he's in there, (we may not win) we'll kill him again. [Reply]
