Broncos Fourth Drive cont...

--The Broncos are at their own five, facing a 3rd and 6.  Whatever the call is, the Broncos need to be very, very carefull....
--Nice job just to avoid a turnover.  Another penalty on the Broncos.  What the hell is going on??  Another formation penalty?
--The special teams woes strike again, with Sauerbrun's punt getting blocked.  Horrible job by Cargile on the block.  Putrid.  Chiefs 5 - Broncos 3

Chiefs Fourth Drive --

--Two more runs by Priest Holmes, and it looks to me like Holmes just doesn't have any explosion left...
--Solid job by the defense and the Chiefs will have to punt...

Broncos Fifth Drive --

--Finally some decent field position for the offense. Can they take advantage???
--A big play missed there, with Cutler over-throwing Marshall...Can someone tell me why we are throwing the ball every down after Young looked so good in the first quarter??
--A big third down....
--Great catch by Marshall..First Down Broncos...
--Cutler has got to do a better job throwing the ball over the D-Line... --Jared Allen not fulled by all the misdirection has another sack. Can someone block him please...
--Cutler looking good in the pocket...Leg must be feeling ok...
--Time for another Elam field goal try. This is a long one, 49 yards....
--Off the criss bar in GOOD!!! BRONCOS 6 - Chiefs 5

Chiefs Fifth Drive

--Chiefs going back to the ground. If the Broncos can hold Priest down, we have a great shot to win...
--A sack sighting by the Broncos defense...Ian Gold picks up the endangered species...
--The over-pursuit bug has once again bitten the Broncos linebackers...
--Chiefs moving the ball through the air, now...
--Holmes gets 5 more, moving the ball inside the 10
--Third and 1 from the 5...
--Holmes nearly runs himself to mid-field, and the Broncos defense bends but doesn't break. The field goal is good...Chiefs 8 - Broncos 6

Broncos Sixth Drive --

--Broncos go right back to the air....Still have no idea why Young isn't running the ball more..
TWO MINUTE WARNING -- Chiefs 8 - Broncos 6
--Reason one to wear a cup. Marshall walking gingerly after taking an uppercut to the loins...
--Finally back in action...Scheffler across the 50 and Cutler is limping... --Cutler returns but the Broncos continue to get nailed for penalties...

Chiefs Sixth Drive

--Up 2 with 41 seconds to go the Chiefs are likely to just run a play and get into the locker room...

HALFTIME - CHIEFS 8 - BRONCOS 6
