Steven Nelson, Jaye Howard, Dee Ford, and Maclin are out. Several others are questionable like Peters and Gaines. Good times.

I hate these games where it just looks like the Broncos are catching a nice break on the injury front. Just seems like when everybody is picking one team then the other team rises up with a bunch of back ups to pull out the win. Should be a low scoring affair though. I keep hoping the Broncos offense emerges and has one of those crazy weeks but realistically this will be a 21-17 type game.

I suspect this will be a 24-13 type of game unless the Chiefs backups can come in and keep this a low scoring affair. My KC thanksgiving people think that Alex Smith is holding the team back because he isn't running as much as he needs to.

From what I'm seeing defenses are using more zone, off man, and spies. Apparently Alex caught enough attention to actually have DC's gameplan for him somewhat if true. So far down for the count. Probably doesn't help he's a half step slower or so. Should be some pretty defined throwing lanes which in theory shouldn't have been a big problem for him. I am of the opinion Alex in his current state is holding back the team at this point. His production just isn't matching the talent (at least what we think) around him.

I am not sure how this game goes at all. Both offenses leave a lot to be desired. Whoever screws up less on offense may end up being the winner by default. I won't say no chance just because Siemian is right up there with anyone in terms of interceptable passes so that gives an alley way for the Chiefs, but if Denver can't win against this particular Chiefs team tonight, I don't think they're going anywhere this year.

On another topic since Alex's running came up. While Ware is averaging a very healthy 4.9 YPC, the team is a averaging a mediocre 4.1 YPC despite a mobile QB, and a primary back averaging 4.9 YPC.

Some great news it looks like in Oakland. Carolina seems on pace to pull off the upset.

And, just like that poof, the Panthers' season is over. And the Raiders escape yet again.

Dolphins, Ravens and Raiders all won.

This is close to a must win

I am digging this wildcat look they have. Seems to work for them with the speed they have and Ware's background.
I'd like the mobile qb look more but the wildcat worked so I can't complain. I'm listening to this on the radio so I might be missing a few things.

Not sure the Chiefs are going to have any healthy defensive players by the end of the year

Denver went full Kubiak. Why on god's green earth would you go prevent against the Chiefs offense.
