Chiefs @ Broncos Open Thread

Chiefs Broncos Gameday (KCChiefs.com)

Might as well get this thing started off early with it being an away game today. If the Chiefs win only one more game this would be the one I would want to win. Nothing is better than beating the Donkeys to help keep them from making the playoffs. GO CHIEFS!!! Go ahead and leave your prediction too.

Is Tyler Thigpen the real deal at QB?

    I have either Rams-Bengals or Chargers-Titans right now. Yuck. Neither of these games even really mean that much to me fantasy wise.

  2. 2. redbeard Says:

    for some reason the poll doesnt work

  3. 3. Adam Says:

    It’s because it was both in this post and the sidebar. Should be fixed now.

  4. 4. CWebb Says:

    How’s it going, guys? Anyone else getting as much joy in watching Miami’s road to 0 as I am?

  5. 5. Zach Says:

    Try it now Redbeard.

    CWebb, I love seeing the Dolphins lose. I want them to go 0-16 and maybe they can start sipping champagne when all the winless teams win.

  6. 6. CWebb Says:

    I was looking at Arrowhead Pride’s post (that had the thing about us having a 0.1% chance of getting in) and the link said the Pats going 16-0 was 43%, but the ‘Phins going 0-16 was only 20%. Isn’t that kinda weird? I guess cuz they played Buffalo today, because from here on, they’ve got an off-and-on Baltimore, the Pats (if they had to win one, God would make this happen so we could all experience irony in its fullest), and Cincy. Not too easy a schedule–not hard (that’s what she said), but not that easy).

    BTW, anyone else seeing this Lions-Cowboys game? Are you trickling urine, too?

  7. 7. Chris Says:

    Samie Parker is inactive. Sippio???

  8. 8. CWebb Says:

    Great call on that, Chris.

    "The Kansas City Chiefs have declared OT Damion McIntosh, WR Eddie Drummond, DL James Reed, LB Kendrell Bell, OT Kyle Turley, RB Larry Johnson, CB Rashad Barksdale, WR Samie Parker inactive for Week 14." [http://www.kffl.com/team/21/NFL]

    Guys… this Cowboy’s game…

    -cw

  12. 12. CWebb Says:

    Tony Romo is bad ass… I want to be him. (Don’t agree? 2 words- Carrie Underwood.)

  13. 13. CWebb Says:

    Damn, now the Chargers! Looks like a good football day around the NFL.

    -cw

  14. 14. Adam Says:

    Tony Romo is with Jessica Simpson now, which is an upgrade.

  15. 15. Adam Says:

    Get the Chargers off the screen. Damn.

  16. 16. Zach Says:

    Who hasn’t he been with? This will land him a new celeb chick after this win. (Did I just hear someone fire Matt Millen?)

  17. 17. merlinnj Says:

    DJ got caught inside on that long run.  damn

  18. 18. CWebb Says:

    Simpson, Underwood, or, apparently, Kelli Clarkson–who you got?

    Thanks to CBS, I got to miss the 50-yard run… and see the TD :( *pulling knife out of drawer* Hello again, friend.

    -cw

  19. 19. Zach Says:

    Ty Law and Page just got burnt by Stokely.

  20. 20. Adam Says:

    Yikes. This could get ugly. Might be doing me a favor keeping this other one on.

  21. 21. Zach Says:

    Ty Law got embarrassed and Jeff Webb just fumbled a kickoff..

  22. 22. CWebb Says:

    Dammit namesake, don’t screw this up for my family!

    -cw

  23. 23. Zach Says:

    1st and 10, Short pass to Kennison for a gain of 6

  24. 24. Zach Says:

    excuse me 2. 

    2nd and 8, Kolby Smith gains 7 yds

  25. 25. CWebb Says:

    Solari switching things up = Pass-Run-Run. Fun.

    -cw

  26. 26. Adam Says:

    Simpson. But I still hink Romo is just scratching the surface. I think he’s going to pull a Brady and move on to Leonardo DiCaprio-level tail pretty soon.

  27. 27. Zach Says:

    3rd and 1, Smith gets stopped short of the first. Chiefs are punting.

  28. 28. CWebb Says:

    God-almighty…

    -cw

  29. 29. Zach Says:

    Selvin Young already has 78 yds on 4 rushes.

  30. 30. merlinnj Says:

    We look horrid so far

  31. 31. Zach Says:

    2nd & 4, Broncos on the 27, Marshall makes a catch and gains 23 yds.

    Broncos on the 7

  32. 32. Zach Says:

    Henry rushes on first and gets down to the 2

  33. 33. Zach Says:

    2nd and 2, Henry TD

  34. 34. Zach Says:

    Announce just said this is going to be a long day for the Chiefs and I am feeling the same way….

    Ty Law looks horrid.

  35. 35. CWebb Says:

    I hate quotes like "Travis Henry is one of the great short-yardage backs in the league." I understand what they mean, but it sounds like he’s good at not doing a lot. Like "This student is one of the great late-work turner-ins in my class."

  36. 36. Zach Says:

    Is everyone getting the game now? or want me to continue to post things?

  37. 37. Zach Says:

    Benny Sapp has a nice return to the 29

  38. 38. Zach Says:

    False start on Chiefs. 1st and 15, Tony catches a 5 yd pass.

    2nd and 10, Kolby Smith stuffed for a loss of 1

  39. 39. Zach Says:

    Another false start, Eddie Kennison just needs to take the rest of the year off

  40. 40. CWebb Says:

    SD 23, TEN 17

  41. 41. Zach Says:

    Brodie fires a pass to TOny, short of the 1st by 2 yards. Chiefs punting again, OH BOY!

  42. 42. CWebb Says:

    What a melt-down. I just don’t understand it.

  43. 43. CWebb Says:

    My family can die, the lady can leave me, I could get seriously sick with cancer, and I’d have to sit here, watching this torture for the next 2.5 hours—but when they show that Southwest Airlines commercial with the flatscreen TV… damn, I can’t help but giggle.

  44. 44. CWebb Says:

    Ok… now it’s time to start.

    -cw

  45. 45. CWebb Says:

    Does anyone know what the Broncos fans are saying in the stadium after defensive plays? It sounds like "Ay-Ah-Ee."

  46. 46. CWebb Says:

    BOOOOOO-MAH!

  47. 47. Adam Says:

    BOOM!

  48. 48. CWebb Says:

    New star o-liner: Jared Allen.

  49. 49. merlinnj Says:

    Brodie is going to get killed out there

  50. 50. Adam Says:

    Is it just me, or is putting Sippio in on just obvious rushing plays a bit of a telegraph?

  51. 51. CWebb Says:

    I love the way he fires that ball in there– Mitch is right, I think that he’s cold, man.

  52. 52. CWebb Says:

    3 first downs! Day-m!

  53. 53. Adam Says:

    False start. Sippio was in, too. Damn.

  54. 54. CWebb Says:

    TG= Thank God.

    -cw

  55. 55. Adam Says:

    What a block by Sippio!!

  56. 56. merlinnj Says:

    Tony!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  57. 57. redbeard Says:

    with our linebackers hurting today it opens the running game for the donkeys

  58. 58. redbeard Says:

    and we now know that croyle will learn to play hurt…lolall I want for christmas is two lineman in the draft, 1st and second rounds

  59. 59. Adam Says:

    The difference, Beard, is that Croyle has guts. He can bounce back from his shots, unlike Huey. That is important, line or no line.

  60. 60. CWebb Says:

    Here comes a fine. Eff you, Marshall, wasn’t like you did anything.

  61. 61. CWebb Says:

    I apologize for my bitterness.

  62. 62. Zach Says:

    I can’t wait to see how we re-make this OL, I think everyone is ready to see that.

    I would like to move McIntosh over to RT if we could get a good LT. Also need to figure out RG and C (If Weignmann retires or we decide to go a differnt route)

  63. 63. Adam Says:

    Alan Faneca is out there… and apparently he’s pissed at the Steelers. Jordan Gross can play right tackle. Flozell Adams left tackle prob. Womack’s a good guard. There are some FA options. And then there’s the draft. Putting the remodeling effort solely on rookies would be a mistake, though.

  64. 64. CWebb Says:

    I just don’t understand what’s happened with the defense. They were so good earlier this season, and now, it’s like an attitude of unmotivation. It’s like they feel overwhelmed with the fact that they have to be in charge of scoring points since, obviously, nobody else except for TG is gonna.

  65. 65. Adam Says:

    On a completely unrelated note, is Mike Nolan going to get canned or what? Man, they have made zero progress under him. That Alex Smith pick was awful.

  66. 66. CWebb Says:

    Times like this, I wish we had Direct Ticket. This Patriots-Steelers game is looking interesting on GameCast. 14-13 Evil Villains, BTW, with 2 minutes left.

  67. 67. CWebb Says:

    Fun fact– I’m playing a fantasy owner who has Brady, Moss, Jennings, LT, and AP. Speaking of which, how many more snaps must he take to simply clinch ROY?

  68. 68. Adam Says:

    Purple Jesus has been a disgrace today. More like Purple Saul, that turncoat. He and T.O. are screwing me.

  69. 69. CWebb Says:

    Purple Saul? 2 points for the Biblical reference.

  70. 70. Adam Says:

    And it’s one thing for our offensive line to block poorly, but to block so poorly they get Tony Gonzalez hurt? I think our O-line is worse than the Rams.

  71. 71. Adam Says:

    How was that not P.I. on whoever was covering Kris Wilson? Refs probably figured he would have dropped it. I would have.

  72. 72. CWebb Says:

    Why the hell am I still watching this?

  73. 73. merlinnj Says:

    everytime I close my eyes, I see jake long.

  74. 74. Zach Says:

    I think I am having that same thing happen to me merlinn, strange…
