Well, at least the first 2 last year were road games. They played a last place schedule, so hard to avoid the caliber of teams you play. Still don't know why anyone would think the league would try to set Denver up for early success in recent years, but many here love a conspiracy theory.
I'd much rather them have road games early and play home games later in the season. [Reply]

KC went 1-2 against it's uncommon opponents last year. Broncos went 3-0. But that was last year. There year will be tougher for all involved. [Reply]

KC hosted the AFC Title Game last year . . . . . . again. Broncos sat home and watched playoffs again as they finished in last place in their division.
But as you stated, that was last year. We’ll see how it plays out this year . . . . . [Reply]

I'll admit... totally did not follow that one at all. [Reply]

They may FINALLY have a winning season, but they'll still finish last in the West IMO.
Chiefs lost the best receiver they've ever had, but they improved. Good to know. [Reply]
