Denver laying a very chalky 9/9.5 number on the road against what most people perceive to be inferior opponent in KC..

Looking at KC-- team who has struggled last few weeks, looked bad with new QB in Thigpen coming in.. but really that is expected first week of the change. Denver 3-0 has looked good but honostly i'm still not ready to jump on the bandwagon. have blown two huge leads last two games, can't defend the run, haven't beaten playoff caliber squad yet (not counting SD for obvious reasons) , early public hitting Denver.

LJ ran for 100+ last week and looked good, was overshadowed by the ints by thigpen. I expect Herm to get a gameplan together, take better care of the ball, KC to get the run going. I really believe the perception on how good Denver is is very skewed right now, value with the points.

What do you guys think? and as far as line movement goes better to hit KC now or wait in your opinion? :grandmais

I think the Chiefs can definitely cover. I'm going to wait. Right now 87% of the plays are for the Broncos. This line can definitely move closer to the opening line of 11.

The Broncos are a team that looks like they're in the beginning of a very nice groove -- they may be making that step up to the top tier of NFL teams for the season. KC, on the other hand, looks lost. Herm Edwards is neither a good coach nor motivator and Damon Huard is a placekeeper at quarterback, not someone to spark a downtrodden team (better than Tyler Thigpen, though).

I like Denver better on offense, I like them better on defense, they don't have problems with turnovers and I like their coaching better. I see lots of reasons to make me want to bet the Broncos but nothing to make me like the Chiefs.

Denver is soft on defense and laying 9.5 with them is alot because of this issue.....the problem is can KC do anything to exploit the Bronco defense like The Saints did?? At some point Denver is going to have to stiffen on defense..

Don't know how the hell you can even think of putting a dime on KC.

The last two games Denver has played were vs teams with great offence's.

Not the case here KC stinks in every form of the game.

Denver will score at will vs this team.

My money will be on Denver and over

I don't mean to hi-jack this but I have an off question. If I gave someone -31 @ 2:1 odds... that sounds good, right? >:) I'm just confused on why they so easily want it.

Denver Beat Oakland 41-14 in O Town. Oakland is a better team then KC...Coaching wise advantage Denver...I was a Jets fan and I like to say. Monday to Saturday Herm is the man, he know how to get a team ready but then sunday comes and his teams fall to shit.

den is #1 offense in the nfl right now. kc is #30 in points scored. when u look at the numbers . .

.......... KC 0-3. .... . .... .DEN 3-0

week 1 .. 10-17 NE . . .. .41-14 OAK
week 2 .. 8-23 OAK . . . .39-38 SD
week 3 .. 14-38 ATL . . . 34-32 NO

total points for the year for kc 32 total points for den 114

Denver's lowest scoring week outscores KC's whole season. so they will get their points

yea Denver doesnt have any defense but kc has no offense to put up any points.

Basically... DEN will win by 27. My ranking of teams has DEN #9 vs #29--Browns, Texans, Rams are heading up the rear.
