Happy Thanksgiving to you too buddy.
I saw a preview of the pregame show Sunday, they're going to sit down with Champ, Von, Elvis, and Woodyard to talk about the defense. Gotta make sure I catch that, or if any of you gents would record it, it would be much appreciated!  |

"According to ESPN Stats & Information, Manning has been sacked or put under duress just 13.9 percent of his drop backs this season. It is the lowest rate in the NFL. The league average is 21.1 percent." Source: http://espn.go.com/blog/afcwest/post/_/id/51464/final-word-afc-west-36
Anti and Lomax can probably tell us whether the majority of praise for this accomplishment belong to Manning or the OL, or indeed should be equally divided among them.
Also, Branden Albert is unlikely to play. We, however, are reenforced by Kuper and Porter.

That is bad news for Brady Quinn and the Chiefs. Once Denver gets a lead, Von and Doom will get to play. |

So what's the over/under on number of fumbles this game. I think there will be 3 total fumbles between both teams. Too high or too low?

Obviously some OL improvement but the lions share goes to PM. Historically he's very difficult to sack. The year after he left the Colts their sack totals more than doubled. |

It's both. The OL isn't elite but it's good and Manning is very good in the pocket for not being the most mobile QB.
The OL looked bad the last 2 season because Orton would fall down and Tebow had the pocket presence of Ray Charles.

The O-Line didn't look bad last year anyway aside from some Orlando Franklin blunders. The line has been a little bit worse this year with injuries to Walton and Kuper but there's no huge differences. The big difference in this year's offense is we can get the ball out quickly and execute. This is mostly due to the development of our receivers and Peyton Manning's ability to adjust pre-snap and know where openings are.

The only thing that only slightly worries me about the Chiefs is their running game. And we can handle it. I can't think of a single position, aside from RB where KC has Charles, that we're not markedly better.
Broncos: 31
Chiefs: 9

Manning's kryptonite:

Crennel is 6-3 vs Manning, including his Brown years.

In the last 3 years, teams playing at home as a double-digit underdog are 22-2 ATS. Dont expect this to be a blowout.

I don't think we'll blow them out but they shouldn't be a threat. I think you'll see something around our averages. We give up 21 PPG they score 16, we score 30 they give up 28.

I never bet against double digit underdog unless its college football. I'm saying I don't remember when was the last time we were favored by that much. However, I do think we will cover this week. |

Kuper back will really help. Is it just me or does Franklin seem to play better and miss no assignments when Kupers in there? |
