Game Thread: Week 7: Kansas City Chiefs at Denver Broncos

[Wamu]

It isn’t simple. Games aren’t won on paper!

Games are won on video game systems?

 

[Mingo]

I would surely love to see Chiefs defenders chasing after Hamler on the way to the end zone.

 

[fightinredantz]

AJ Bouye, Dre'Mont Jones, Hamler, and Fant are going to be good to go for the game.

Risner, Beck, and Butt are questionable. Walker may also return.

Attaochu and Spencer are out.

Nice to see some of these guys to start coming back.

 

[Draft Crazy]

Sylvester Williams was released but will likely be back on the PS. Jernigan and Williams off active roster is a good sign for Walker and Jones.

 

[Mingo]

Just keep Mahomes in the pocket - he is the most dangerous after a play breaks down. That's the key to victory.

Run the ball! Lindsay for 125 and a pair of TDs!

Not sure that this team is set up to have a 100 yard rusher every week. To get a 100 yard rusher there will have to be some big plays out of the run game. Probably need at least 1 carry of 30+ yards. Lindsay had that big play ability to a greater extent then Gordon, but either can deliver.

I would be pretty happy if Gordon and Lindsay combined for 125 and 2 TDs on Sunday.

That Chiefs defense can be run on though. Maybe a big gain from Lindsay and Gordon to grind it. Keep the Chiefs offense off the field. That would be nice.

 

[fightinredantz]

AJ Bouye, Dre’Mont Jones, and DeMarcus Walker were activated from IR.

Chiefs will be without the following players:
Taco Charlton
Alex Okafor
Mitchell Schwartz
Sammy Watkins

It wouldn't surprise me if the league resorted to this at some point.

It looks like a major snow storm for the Broncos/Chiefs today. Go Broncos!

 

[SpringStein]

Hey, here in Colorado Springs, it’s getting warmer! It’s up to 15 degrees from 13 just 30 minutes ago.

 

[fightinredantz]

We will see if the snow hurts one team or the other.

The Broncos have been getting more and more mentally tough as the season goes on. Playing the Chiefs in a snow game will be another test.

If I where forced to bet on this game (I don't place bets) I would put my money on the Chiefs as I think they are overall the better team, but the Broncos only have to be better today. If the Broncos can score on 6 drives like last week, with at least 3 of those being TDs then they will have a chance. The Defense will need to step up today though.

both teams play for cold weather cities. I don't see it as much of a factor. Just my opinion, though...

 

[fightinredantz]

Risner to play today.

To me, seeing Jake Butt inactive is a good sign. I would think that means we'll see Fant and Albert O on the field together.

 

[Duffman]

If that first drive by both teams is any indication today will not be pretty.
