Good riddance to the Chiefs

Good riddance to the Chiefs

Sunday night felt like a funeral and it was delicious.

Is there anything better than the tears that are shed over the decline of the Kansas City Chiefs?

I know it’s going to be tough for the national media to shift gears and discuss teams that aren’t the Chiefs. A decade of lazy prognostication now gives way to an era where talent matters and Taylor Swift does not.

My sympathies are also with the officials. Nobody loves to put their thumb on the scale for an emotionally pouty quarterback more than the officials. Let’s give them some space while they...

The Kansas City Chiefs have been mathematically eliminated from winning the AFC West

Their reign of terror is officially over.

With a 20-10 loss to the Houston Texans, the Kansas City Chiefs have been mathematically eliminated from winning the AFC West. They have fallen to 6-7, are barely hanging on in the AFC Playoff picture, and now trail the Denver Broncos by 5 games in the win/loss column.

From 2016 through 2024, the Kansas City Chiefs have won 9 straight AFC West titles and reached at least the AFC Championship in every season that Patrick Mahomes has started for them at quarterback. While I hate the Chiefs, Mahomes, Kelce, and everything about that...

Winners and Losers from the Broncos 24-17 victory over the Raiders

Winners and Losers from the Broncos 24-17 victory over the Raiders

Last month, the Broncos played a rough Thursday Night game vs. the Raiders but were able to squeeze out a 10-7 victory. It wasn’t the prettiest game, and it had the media buzzing about how they were frauds. Well, they bounced back this afternoon and walked away with a 24-17 victory over the Raiders.

It was a 24-7 game late in the 4th quarter until the Raiders and backup quarterback Kenny Pickett scored a garbage-time touchdown to make it a 24-14 score. They would attempt an onside kick, but it failed to go 10 yards, and Broncos tight end Adam...

NFL Playoff Picture: Broncos are the number 1 seed in the AFC

The Broncos now control their own destiny.

With a 24-17 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, the Denver Broncos improve to 11-2 on the year, won their 10th straight game, and are once again the number one seed in the AFC. While the Broncos did not clinch a postseason spot this week, they did gain a significant tiebreaker over the Patriots.

Broncos defeat Raiders and retake top seed in AFC

Broncos defeat Raiders and retake top seed in AFC

The Denver Broncos needed a win over the Las Vegas Raiders to regain the number one seed in the AFC and also secure the necessary tiebreakers if they end up with the same record as the New England Patriots. They did that with a dominating performance on both sides of the ball against Las Vegas in Week 14.

With nearly 40 minutes in time of possession, Bo Nix and the Broncos offense were firing on all cylinders. They had two 14-play drives that resulted in touchdowns and one very long 19-play drive that added a late game-clinching field goal. That...

Broncos at Raiders first quarter recap

Broncos at Raiders first quarter recap

The Denver Broncos would lose the opening coin toss and the Las Vegas Raiders would defer to bring out Bo Nix and the Broncos offense to start the game.

A poor return set the Broncos at their own 19 yard line to start the game, but Nix found RJ Harvey on a swing pass for an 11 yard gain and a first down to start things off. A quick pass to Courtland Sutton on the next play setup a second and two where Tyler Badie gain nothing on an inside handoff. The third down pass looked like it was going...

Broncos-Raiders inactives for Week 14

Broncos-Raiders inactives for Week 14

The Denver Broncos will be without one of their anchors along the defensive line with D.J. Jones out with an ankle injury. That will give some opportunities to the depth to shine against Ashton Jeanty and the Las Vegas Raiders this afternoon.

Other inactives include TE Nate Adkins, OT Geron Christian, DE Sai’vion Jones, DL Jordan Jackson, and CB Reese Taylor. For the Raiders, there are not real surprises on their list. Tight end Michael Mayer is out, which given how difficult of a time the Broncos defense has had at various points covering tight ends, Mayer’s absence could be...

Welcome to Week 14 of the regular season!

As we wait for the Denver Broncos to take on the Las Vegas Raiders this afternoon, there are a few interesting AFC matchups we should pay attention to given the Broncos are fighting for that top seed. The first would be the Bills and Bengals. Cincinnati is interesting, because if they get hot they could find a way to the top of that division to close out the season. The AFC North battle between the Steelers and Ravens is just another example of these teams just beating each other up. In the...

Broncos driven by fear of failure

Broncos driven by fear of failure

Good morning, Broncos Country!

Bo Nix hates to lose.

That’s not really breaking news, but it does give a glimpse into his competitiveness and drive.

That’s a trait the Denver Broncos quarterback shares with Sean Payton. In fact, the Broncos head coach hates losing more than he likes winning. That approach and mindset help explain why Denver sits at 10-2 and in a prime spot to get the No. 1 seed in the AFC Playoffs.

That motivating factor will also be the heart of how the Broncos approach the game today against the Las Vegas Raiders and the final...
