The Chiefs must stay more balanced on offense and get the same type of defensive performance they had the first game, when they harassed Trevor Siemian with five sacks and recorded a safety.
There’s no better time to make the waking motion than after reading that take, or any other one about Reid not being “classy” or whatever. The AFC playoff teams are confirmed. The Broncos also have the same record as the Baltimore Ravens and the Tennessee Titans.
The Broncos had played in two of the past three Super Bowls.
For the third time in the last four years, the Kansas City Chiefs are headed to the playoffs.
Wolfe has had a career season along the Denver defensive front, posting a career-high 51 tackles as of play on Sunday. A strong passing offense can help compensate for an ineffective ground attack and a worn-down defense struggling to stop the run. As a Cleveland-based writer, I get that the Browns haven’t won diddly, and that Elway won two Super Bowls as quarterback and has one as general manager of the Broncos. “I don’t know what it is, but we’ve been flat all season”.

Stephenson will be starting this week and should expect to be matched with Houston often throughout the game. “Defensively, we should feel really good about ourselves and how we played”.
Trading for Mark Sanchez? They brought Colin Kaepernick into town and asked him to take a significant pay cut. The Broncos have turned to a combination of Siemian and Paxton Lynch at quarterback.

It was complete to Demetrius Harris for a wonderful touchdown pass. Josh McDaniels started that year as the head coach; Eric Studesville finished the year as head coach. Their running game was nowhere to be found. Denver mustered just 145 yards in the first half. A loss tonight eliminates the Broncos. “This is not what we’re used to”. At 346 pounds, Poe is the heaviest man in the league annals to accomplish that feat, way ahead of 265-pound JaMarcus Russell (although we certainly could debate whether the scales were properly calibrated at the time of his official weigh-in). I’ll go into more details on that soon, but for now let’s go over my handful of takeaways from KC’s impressive win.
