I'll be amazed if the Chiefs pull this out with two turnovers in the red zone and three dropped INT's.

 

I don't think both o-lines are sloppy, these are two of the best pass rushing d's in the league.

[Hollyw00d]

Go chiefs

Hopefully Charles blows out both knees walking to his car after the game

[Hollyw00d]

Lol.

Nice gag KC

[Brandon]

Weeeeeee

 

More Chiefs futility.

 

If I wanted to spend over three and a half hours watching a new way to lose a game I would have watched the Angels.

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

The defense gives up the lead then proves me wrong and comes up huge to win it. What a game.

[Hollyw00d]

That was almost as bad as when rivers fumbled the snap in that Halloween game a few years back

[nate]

That was one of those 9 times out of 10 games where the Chiefs would win.  5 turnovers!  brutal.  Maybe the Broncos D is that good.

[Brandon]

That was worse. That was butt fumble bad.....dropping a snap.

 

Two red zone turnovers, 5 total, with two being fumbles from a guy that never does. Three dropped INT's in the hands. Deserved to lose.

 

What a shit game though. The flags, stoppage of play, and that ref that a minute or two after the play throws the late PI flag to try and give the Broncos that good ol' new set of downs in the final drive before it was picked up. Evenly matched teams, let them play instead of making the game go almost four hours. Just brutal to sit through a ref show.

I have to say, "at least he held onto his helmet" is one of the strongest snark comments I have heard from a PBP crew.

Agreed, the number of flags really is ruining the game. Seems like almost every play has a flag thrown. Kills the pace of play and makes the refs way more involved than they should be. Its turning into the NBA.

No way the dropped snap was as bad as the butt fumble. Nothing will top that.

[nate]

Yeah dropped snaps happen every week. The butt fumble is once in a lifetime

That no doubt brought back to oldtimers memories of Joe Pisarcik's fumble while trying to run out the clock in a Giants game, and Herman Edwards returning it for a game winning TD for the Eggles.

And Sunday may well bring the Rams debut pairing of Gurley and Mason at the key RB spot.

If this team gets good enough OL and secondary work, look out. The skill players and the defensive front 7 are pretty darned good, and there aren't many better than Austin, Zuerlein, and Hekker on special teams.

Gurley and Mason are still questionable for today.

[Brandon]

Thanks for the update, AO

[Hollyw00d]

Hopefully the seathugs go to 0-2

[Vegas Halo Fan]

Jacksonville finally won, and the 23 points would have been about a month's worth of production last season. Maybe Gus Bradley will finally get some results.

[Chimi]

I know I'm the only Cowboys fan around here, but wow, what a huge punch to the gut we've had the last two weeks.  First we lose Dez Bryant for 10-12 weeks and now we are losing Romo for possibly the same.  We finally have a team that I think can make it to the Super Bowl and wow.   Losing Dez was one thing ... but we absolutely can't lose Romo.  You can plug and play some receivers in a lot easier than you can a QB.  Here's hoping to some good news tomorrow when Romo is re-evaluated but I'm not holding my breath.

On the bright side instead of getting your hopes up later in the season then inevitably shitting the bed Dallas just saved you a lot of pain and got it out of the way now.  In all seriousness though the injury bug has hit some contenders hard and I never want to see players go down because I want to see each team at their best when they step on the field. 

 

It's obviously real early in the season but right now between injuries and holdouts no one team looks like the team to beat. Come the playoffs I'm sure that will change especially when teams have to go to NE/GB in the winter but a lot will happen between now and then.

Aaron Godgers doing work

 

Packers beat Seattle even without their best WR, their top notch RT and their star RB

[Angel Oracle]

And Washington plays it smart in keeping it on the ground and with short passes, playing away from the Rams' biggest D strength of rushing the passer.   Can't let teams control the clock for over 60% of the time, unless you yourself have an explosive offense.

Drew Brees has a shoulder injury that will cause him to miss potentially several games.

[bloodbrother]

Saints window is officially slammed shut.

[Tank]
