Whatever, in the end Denver did what it had to do to win both games. This semantics game is just that. It's your choice to not acknowledge that Fox lost that game due to poor game management. He had it won and gave it away.

I'm not disagreeing with most of what you're saying, but it's hard to suggest that Fox lost a game in which his team never held the lead. Question becomes really, had Denver not gone for it on their own 4th down at the goal and settled for the FG... would Fox have still gone for it on his 4th down or would he have kicked? My guess is he would have still gone for it, and the result would be the same.
Denver's defense showed up ugly on some big plays that extended a few drives, including the final drive. They've unfortunately done that in a few games this year.
Gotta take the good with the bad. Bottom line... reality is 8-2 an they have 4 of the remaining 6 in Denver. They are tied with CIN (losing on AFC record tiebreakers) for that #2/3 seed and they play CIN in Denver in a few weeks.
It's all about positioning at this point, I just hope they're lucky enough to hang on and win a few more games. Chiefs' playoff run enters week 5 this week... can they maintain the 'can't lose' momentum?

One team is 8-2, the other is 5-5.
