If I've learned anything in this thread, it is that the donkey sees only what it wants to see.

That being said, my thought for 2017 is as follows... I think it's the Raiders' division to lose at this point, I think they're the most balanced across offense, defense and special teams. I don't know what to say about the Chargers, they have been bitten by injuries and poor play through recent years. They could win 12 games, but wouldn't be shocked to see them struggle to win 8. Chiefs and Broncos are really very similar, the success of both is dictated by the defenses. Bottom line. I don't know really what KC did to improve offensively, lots of young guys. Smith is a limiting factor, but isn't going to kill your chances. If people want to slot Denver as the 3rd team at this point, hell put them 4th - I don't care. I believe the defense will carry them. Last year, they were killed by players like Hill and the RB in ATL. It's not trickery as some have said, it's taking advantage and exploiting coverages. All in all, I think it will be a great year for the division with the winner likely hitting 11-12 wins and I do believe you'll see divisional splits more often than not. For KC and Denver, if there's a game where either is reliant upon their offenses to win it in the first 4-8 games, they're in trouble. You guys keep the crotch kicking going and I'll chime in more once training camps start, but I do belive it's going to be a good year for the AFCW. Very competitive. |

Just because he was near Harris doesn't mean he was his coverage. What I remember from that play is that kc spread the D out with a multiple TE set, could have been 3, don't remember chose to remember Von' strip sacks in the SB. I doubt the coverage was for Harris to be on the 2nd TE, he could have come off his guy and try to make the play because a LB missed his read? A video of the play would help answer that.
That is also why Andy loves to spread guys out in the red zone, makes it easy for alex to pick his spot to dink it. Plus going with a 3 TE set down there gives him a size advantage over the smaller CB's. It is a good design, you guys are lucky that was one of the passes Harris didn't drop, isn't he like 50/50 on catching? |

Let's put our bickering aside and just watch a good show on NFL Network right now. This is their "top 100" episode where they list Marcus Peters as the best cornerback in the NFL and I haven't seen it yet.

According to 9 News Denver's Mike Klis, Broncos second-year QB Paxton Lynch remains a "work in progress" coming out of OTAs.
Klis indicates Lynch's spring practice performances were highly inconsistent, unsurprising for a quarterback whose 2016 preseason and real-game play also failed to align. Trevor Siemian remains the favorite entering camp. |

KnowShit should be in here soon to say that report isn't from a credible source.

Maybe, will be fun to see what he can do. I know you typed that as a negative, but I don't read it like that. Numbers wise he was on par last year, he stretched the field and took more chances than Alex. I like the upside, he won't be an elite guy, and that's fine... he has a good grasp of his limitations and that will prove well if the other pieces around him improve.
