Cassel has one good season with the Chiefs.

He's been playing good the second half.

The point is that Denver air game is hijo de puta compared to their rushing game. It's also on Sanders getting injured, Watson being a failure and Bolles learning his NFL game as a LT, but Siemian making not so smart decisions is not good at all.

Someone should explain to Siemian that the guy catching the pass has to have the same fucking uniform you do! >:(

That Denver D is really good. With all the mistakes their offense made the Chiefs should have like 50 points.

That's been the case the last few years. Well, teams go through cycles like this. Denver fans tend to be less than forgiving. I imagine Siemian's house is going to come in for more than a little toilet paper tomorrow.

IKR? And it's not even all of the offence either! Denver's rushed very well against a strong KC defensive front 7.

Now the passing game's just intolerable. Happens after 4 memorable years of Manning though....

Yup. Happens when it's owned by one of the classiest, best owners in the business, and now with a very good GM in Elway as well.

Ravens need to beat Titans to stay in wildcard race and divisional on Sunday. Once upon a time this was a big rivalry game back when both teams were in the 6 team Central Division.

Especially when the Titans coaching staff allegedly stole Trent Dilfer's playbook from inside the Ravens locker room at Nashville. Of course this was the nasty ass Jeff Fisher coached Titans who also stole the Jags playbook in 1999 according to the accounts.

Idiot ESPN announcer said "Alex Smith has the ball, first and goal to go from the nine. And he throws an interception!"

Nope, it was a trick play that failed. It fooled the announcer more than it fooled the Broncos.

Smith NEVER throws interceptions.

And for a damn FOURTH ROUND DRAFT PICK.

Look, Ajayi was averaging 3.4 yp/c, and that's bad, but he was on pace for a thousand yards, and the O-Line hasn't played well, and there is no respect for the passing attack.

And Kelvin Benjamin for a 3rd and 7th rounder? ARE YOU SERIOUS!?

They did this in 2014 to take the top off of defenses with Philly Brown, who never did much, but he didn't allow defenses to play close to the line of scrimmage. Once they traded a better WR to free up snaps for him, their offense averaged 60 more yards a game and 5.5 more points a game, even if the rookie didn't do much better.

We might see this with Curtis Samuel. But at the same time, WHY? You guys have frikkin' Devin Funchess starting. Trade him. God dang. And Olsen isn't even playing right now, so runa 3W set with Benjamin, Funchess, and Samuel. There's still room for Olsen, even with Stewart/McCaffrey in the backfield.

Morons.

Well your harmful presence is tolerated to the degree of your talent. Hence Antonio Brown is still on the Steelers. Given Ajayi's talent, I'd guess it's other reasons... like the Dolphins being ran badly.
