This is the 2nd meeting this season of this AFC West Rivalry. Half of
the Chiefs wins came in week 4 at home against Denver in which K.C.
ended up winning 33-19.
Chiefs will try to make it 2 straight for the first time since any
Chiefs fan can remember (actually Oct. 2007 was the last time).
Look for LJ to have another good game. LJ had 198 yards rushing a 2 TD's against Denver in week 4.
3:08 PM Central
K.C. gets the kickoff. A quick 3 and out. Chiefs will punt.
3rd and 9 Broncos ball. Cutler incomplete to Marshall. Broncos will punt.
Thigpen complete to Bowe....he bobbled it but came up with the catch
and ran an additional 30+ yards. KC ball on the Denver 11 yard line.
3rd and 11. Thigpen short to Charles for a gain of 3. Chiefs will attempt FG....Barth for 26 yards.....good.
K.C. 3
Denver 0
3:25 PM
3rd and 4. Cutler in shotgun......tries for Stockey in the flats.....INTERCEPTED by Maurice Leggett.....for a pick 6....TD.
Leggett was the same guy that took back the botched fake field goal last week to prove to be the deciding TD in Oakland.
Just like that....
K.C. 10
Denver 0
2nd and 10. Denver ball...handoff to Hillis for a gain of 12. 1st and 10 at the K.C. 46.
3rd and 1. Handoff to Hillis gains 3 for the Denver first down.
1st down. Cutler screen to Stokley for a gain of 15 for another 1st down. Denver ball on the K.C. 18 yard line.
Very next play....pitch to Hillis runs untouched into the end zone.
K.C. 10
Denver 7
2nd and 10. Thigpen throws directly to a Broncos LB Woodyard. Woodyard
was stripped of the ball. Herm is challenging to see if it was an
interception.
Herm gets the call. Ruling is nobody had possession of the ball. K.C. ball 3rd down and 10.
Thigpen in shotgun....complete to Bowe short of the 1st down by a
foot....Chiefs are own their own 32. Any other team would punt...the
Chiefs will go for it.....Thipgen QB sneak....another measurement. 1st
down Chiefs.
Chies ball 3rd and 5. Thigpen complete to Jeff Web....1st down.
3rd and 3. Thigpen under center...complete to Gonzales for another first down. Chiefs ball on the Denver 23.
Another 3rd and 3. Handoff to LJ....sweep around the edge. 1st down on the Denver 16.
1st down......Thigpen complete to Gonzalez....TOUCHDOWN.
I know Tony wanted out of K.C at the beginning of the year. Tyler
Thigpen with the combination of Gailey's offense has rejuvenated
Gonzalez's career. If Tony can just hang on with the team 3 more
years.....Tony could have a chance for a ring.
8:02 left in the half.
K.C. 17
Denver 7
Note: Last time K.C. won in Denver Elvis Grbac was the QB. The year was 2000.
4:13 PM
Denver ball 3rd and 2 on the K.C. 45 yard line. Cutler complete to
Hilis....makes an amazing catch while ooming down hard directly on his
head. Man down boys, man down. 1st down Denver.
3rd and 2 Denver ball on the K.C. 16.
2:00 warning
Cutler in shotgun. Designed play Cutler scrambles for a 1st down on the K.C. 15.
3rd and goal. Cutler in shotgun....throws to Marshall in the back corner of the end zone....TD.
1:05 left in the half.
K.C. 17
Denver 14
Chiefs ball 1st down on their own 39. :55 seconds left. Thigpen in shotgun....gets pressure incomplete to Bowe over the middle.
3rd and 12. Thigpen complete to Bowe.....end of half.
Fantasy Note: Hillis went to the locker room mid-way through the 2nd
quarter, has not returned. Looks as if it was a hyper-extended knee.
Halftime Score:
K.C. 17
Denver 14
Fantasy Note: By this point you should be in the playoffs. And if
you're stuck in a position where you had to start Hillis in your
league....it doesn't look good. The only RB Broncos have left on their
roster is starting the second half - Tatum Bell.
Denver methodically moving the ball down the field through the air.
2nd and 10 on the K.C. 17. Cutler handoff to Bell...stuffed.
3rd and 9. Cutler in shotgun....Chiefs blitz complete to Marshall for a
gain of only 1. Denver will attempt a 32 yard FG....good.
K.C. 17
Denver 17
1st and 10. Thigpen complete to Gonzalez while going out of bounds. Shanahan throws the flag.
3rd and 22. Thigpen in shotgun....Thippen scrambles....throws deep to Franklin incomplete. Chiefs will punt.
5:12 PM
Cutler complete to Graham for a gain of 25.
3rd and 3 on the KC 31. Cutler in shotgun....incomplete to Jackson over
the middle. Denver will attempt 48 yard FG.......just missed, no good.
KC 17
Denver 17
Chies will take over with good field position on their own 39.
1:49 left in the 3rd quarter.
1st and 10 Denver ball on their own 23. Cutler over the middle complete for a 1st down.
Gunther Cunningham and his terrible defense is notorious for giving up yardage over the middle....at any point of the game.
1st and 10 at the 50 yard line. Cutlet pitches it to Bell. Bell rushes for a big gain of 28.
12:13 left in the game.
5:34 PM
I shouldn't be so hard on the defense. Gunther is definitely sending
more blitzes than i've seen in many games. We are getting pressure just
not enough pressure. Cutler is continuing to eat up the defense.
3rd and 3 at the KC 15.
Cutler in shotgun.....has allllllll day. Complete to Marshall for a first down.
1st and goal. Screen to Marshall...touchdown.
10:10 left in the 4th quarter.
KC 17
Denver 24
2nd and 10. Thigpen over top complete to Gonzalez.
KC 1st down on their own 35.
3rd and 1. Thigpen handoff to LJ for a gain of 12. 1st down on the Denver 22.
Thigpen scrambles for another 1st down.
5:33 left in the 4th quarter.
3rd and goal. Thigpen under center tosses it to the corner of the end
zone to Bowe....incomplete....flag thrown.....illegal formation.....4th
and goal......Thigpen scrambles....up the middle....gets tackled on the
1 yard line.
Denver ball 1st down.
4:35 left in the 4th quarter.
3rd and 10 Denver ball on their own 1. Cutler compete to Marshall for a first down.
How many times, as a Chiefs fan do we have to get our hopes up just to
get them crushed by a pitiful defense. How many losses do we have to go
through to finally get to the point of "we know we can't win" before
the game started and there is no point in watching the game..... I
think we're there.
Game over....in more ways that one.
FINAL SCORE:
KC 17
Denver 24
