That stokely move in

the endzone was kind of funny. It looked like it was in slo mo, but the DB just about got his jock turned around backwards without taking it off first.

I saw that

Looked like a old guy runnig.

Gonzales hurt

Bad bad injury. Looks like the injury to Marvin Harrison that happened in that game with us.

All right, Chiefs to punt.

Martinez hard hit on the return. Get something going early again.

by TommyTSlice on Dec 9, 2007 3:55 PM MST reply actions

Technically

Yes, we do own tiebreakers over 2 of the four teams ahead of us for the wild card. Realisticly, not really.

Marshall just

had another awesome block. Scheffler ran around it like it was jsut a lampost in the park...

by Jeremy Bolander on Dec 9, 2007 3:56 PM MST reply actions

Marshall

"All hands! Plucks it out of the air!!"

Love it.

I freaking love Gus Johnson.

He should be designated all time play-by-play for the Broncos.

What A HIT!

I'll have to give up on watching.

My screen just freezes up and the sound and pictures are too choppy.

I'll have to rely on you guys for the visuals.

you know

martinez runs good routs, but he isn't as fast on the field as his 4.29 speed. He is still fast though.

But why are you telling me?

Champ

We only notice him when he gets an INT or when he gets burned. He does his job best by not getting noticed at all (taking his guy out of the game 'cause no one wants to throw to him).

You are right :)

But he did get burned more than a few times this year.

by Jeremy Bolander on Dec 9, 2007 4:13 PM MST reply actions

You know

He did a sort of role rather than a slide. Maybe he is scared to slide (for his legs)

nice play NE

by Jeremy Bolander on Dec 9, 2007 4:15 PM MST reply actions

Anyone notice Wesbster leading in tackles?

I agree it's a little late in the season to get things right, but I think this is at least his second game lading the team in tackles.

assuming

teams are accounting for DJ, then the majority should be Webster, right? since he's sam?

by Jeremy Bolander on Dec 9, 2007 4:17 PM MST up reply actions

75 Tackles

so far this year. Not half bad, but he's had other issues as has been well documented here.

by dpurvis on Dec 9, 2007 4:20 PM MST up reply actions

Mile High should be

Marshall at Mile High.

He is putting his stamp on this field.

When the offense is clicking..

We're a DAMN good offense.

I mean, it is the Chiefs, but still. We should be putting up 30+ against them.

KC

KC has a good D.

by amirebram on Dec 9, 2007 4:19 PM MST up reply actions

I'm saddened

that they can muster the right kind of attitude to late to make a difference.

Is it because KC is struggling so much?

by Jeremy Bolander on Dec 9, 2007 4:19 PM MST reply actions

That's kind of my point about the need for coverage safeties in another diary. EVERY CB should get burned a few times each game. I think most folks expect the world's best CBs to play perfect games. The position is too difficult to expect that. The top CBs limit their opponents to three or four receptions a game, which is about what Bailey gives up. With only one safety in the deep center (and the other wasted in the box) we are asking to give up TDs every game in our system without two coverage SAFs.

Styg

I don't think teams are tacking Williams out which makes room for Webster. With a four man front Williams should have better protection than Webster.
I don't give all the credit to KC. If we were as bad as they are (supposedly) playing, we couldn't do this well. KC IS a struggling team, but so are we. It seems to me like we're just stepping up and playing the way we should and they're not. Let's give ourselves a little credit.
