Suggesting the Chiefs drove up and down the field at will all game... not really. KC inflicted their damage in the first quarter with 3 TDs over 70 yards each on 4 drives. In the final 9 drives, in the final 3 quarters... two FGs and Poe's late score sealed it in the final 3 drives. 5 of those final 9 had six or fewer plays, 4 punts, a missed FG. In the final 3 drives (2 FG and a TD), Denver gave up great field advantage with 3 Turnovers. They didn't even look like they wanted to keep it within reach. So, they got their butts kicked... I'm not going to try to dress it up any differently, it was ugly and KC earned the win. Those 3 big TDs in the first quarter set the tone and Denver fell apart. In Denver's final 9 drives - 3 turnovers, 4 punts, gave it up on downs and a FG. They were battered, beaten and whipped. Now it's 2017... new coach, different players, say what you will - but, I think they have improved in a few key areas and barring injury, definitely see a lot of divisional splits this year. |

failed to pass over 250 yards and didn't have a single back go over 100 yards. I agree, it is over and kc earned the win that day. I also like our chances this year. |

As for the 2nd part of your post. I totally disagree that the Donks have improved. Their defense hasn't improved and will likely take a step back with the loss of Wade. The quarterbacks don't appear to be improved. If Jamaal has any gas in the tank(I don't believe he does), then there should be some early improvement in the running game, but I don't see him finishing the season. The offensive line may be improved, but only if Sloth is literate enough to learn the game of football(not likely). The FA additions to the line are modest at best. And then there's the new coaching staff. They sure don't have impressive resume's. I really don't see 6-10 as being at all unrealistic. I hope that they get closer to 8-8, as long as the Chiefs sweep them again. But only because I want them drafting later and not be in position to draft a real QB without trading up. |

Sounds like a bunch of Denver homer reporters fluffing up the bust.

On the second part, we'll see how it all shakes out. I don't think the defense really takes a step back without Wade. Hell, you guys claimed it was going to be a downfall with Wade in year 3, I believe. And, now it's doom and gloom without him... so which is it? |
