Look we all love our teams and all have slightly colored glasses for who we want to win etc. The way I see the Broncos is this, they won the superbowl last year with manning, who wasn't the same person but carried an aura about him and leadership that just can't be replaced by sieman. With all that said they are doing well and deserve respect, I just don't see them making it to the big dance at the end. 9-7 or even 10-6 is a possibility but the lack of leadership at the most important position will doom them in the end. I have watched every Chiefs game and every Broncos game this year and in the end the Chiefs look like the better team ( unless they play like they did in Pittsburg) so we can all argue over who is best but in the end we will know in a few weeks. For now, go chiefs!! [Reply]

Kickers missed 77 XP's in 2015, the most since 1977 - and in the years 2010 to 2014, kickers missed only 37 combined. So, yeah - crazy deal when they screw with that, but to you're point ... guess it's a conspiracy. Because 'their' guy should be immune.
I'm referring to the movement of betting lines for the AFC Champ game. [Reply]

And, in regards to betting lines - I never pay attention to those. I don't bet, so good luck. I never know what the spreads are or who covers them. [Reply]

Truth hurts doesn't it. Nobody bought the Super Farce and it led to a ratings disaster this year. Fans all over the country left in droves over the shit sandwich of a game:-) [Reply]

So why are you arguing with us when you don't pay attention to it like we do? It was nzoner that turned us on to this by the way...and I must say it was an eye opening experience. [Reply]

I've never argued the merits of the betting BS... I've only addressed the other items you guys have remarked about. [Reply]

Lorenzo Doss was the third corner, and earned an 86.3 coverage grade after allowing two catches for 29 yards on seven targets, adding a pair of pass defenses.

Stepping in to start for an injured Aqib Talib, Roby was tested often by the Chargers, and responded with the kind of coverage Talib would be proud of. Nine passes were thrown his way during the game, but just two were caught for 34 yards, while he caught one himself for an interception and batted another away. Overall, Philip Rivers had a passer rating of 3.2 when throwing it at Roby in the Broncos’ win.
