The Denver offense has not seen the kind of production that they are used to. Ranking 14th overall in terms of points per game, 27th overall in total yards per game (324.7), passing for only 227.3 yards per game (23rd overall) and 22nd in yards rushing at 92.7, this Bronco team has struggled.

Their defense on the other hand is the same dominant defense that we have seen, minus their run defense which is at the end of the pack allowing 123.7 yards per game (29th overall). They have a great pass rush with DeMarcus Ware and Von Miller, and their secondary has 10 interceptions on the year. Their defense is good, but their offense does not have the same type of production. Sound familiar?

Sunday under the lights might be the best thing for the Kansas City Chiefs right now. They are struggling to move the ball offensively and we have seen when two of their play makers are down how their defense does not fare well. This game will be a good test of the team and could very well be the tipping-point for the post season. Both KC and Denver are in the playoffs if the season were to end today, so this could have seeding impact for both teams.

The rivalry of the Chiefs and the Broncos has been fun to watch and this weekend’s game will be no different. Both teams need to win this game to keep pace with the other, and unless there is an epic collapse of the Oakland Raiders, one could only hope) these teams could be playing for second, and a shot to the post season. So now the question remains, will the history of the Broncos getting the upper hand repeat itself again?

What do think, Addicts? Will history repeat itself again on Sunday night? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
