Denver Must Win Sunday against Kansas City

There is no alternative to this Sunday's game with the Chiefs.  Denver MUST win.  After 2 losses this one cinches our place in the AFC West. Kyle Orton has been playing very well for KC, so the common story line is that he is coming to beat the Broncos in order to get back for being cut.  Not true.  Orton is a pro, and even if he had some feelings of resentment, he would never admit them, and would never say anything of that kind.  It is pundits and speculators who say that kind of thing.

Tebow and Team are ready to knock the Chiefs down on Sunday, and after 2 games being played with dropped balls, turnovers, bumbles and stumbles, they will be gunning to WIN, not lose.  To them it does not matter about Kyle Orton.  He is a guy they liked and respected, but that won't change the goal. Chiefs are in the position to be spoilers, but it ain't gonna happen. Broncos will NOT lose a third game in a row. Let's all watch and see how right I am here.

This is a game the likes of which compares with a playoff contest, and it is just as important to the remainder of this season for the Broncos.  The Chiefs on the other hand, have no such stake in the outcome. They will try to win as hard as they can however, never doubt that.  Broncos have to execute at a very high level, and they must not allow turnovers, unless it is them getting the ball away from the Chiefs. That is the only turnover allowed on Sunday.

I am thinking they have all the kinks out now.  Their momentum is strong, and they do want to win.  The funny late night leaches have had their fun making light of Tim Tebow's faith, and every man on the team wants to do his part at a level of 10.  I believe they will do it and will win.

Tebow said, “I enjoy big games," he said. "Every game that we’ve played was a big game to get us to this point. But, obviously, this is our next game so it’s our biggest game. We’re excited about it. Ultimately it’s why you play the game -- to get in big situations with an awesome fan base behind you, which we will have on Sunday. It will be a rocking atmosphere, and we’ll be very excited as well.”

For all intents and purposes, this is a playoff game.  Broncos 21, Chiefs 10 (my prediction).  Broncos are tied for 1st place in the division right now, but a win will make it absolute and it leads to the playoffs.  These games are all like the last game of the season, and we pray the Broncos realize that is only the possibility (win and play again).

Denver and Chicago - Ugly Game, Beautiful Win

I was getting bored watching the ugly game between Chicago and Denver yesterday. Neither team was doing much, and by the 4th quarter, Chicago had done just a bit more.  If you had taken a poll in the middle of the 4th, most fans would have given it to Chicago.  

I had to leave at that time and go with my wife to the store, but of course, they had the game on there too, and here in Colorado there is about nothing as important as the Sunday Bronco game.  As the events started to unfold, I wondered if the big W was getting ready to come our way again.  Yes, it was and we had another miracle win at the end of the game.

Now we have to be completely fair about this.  Matt Prater is the big hero of the day.  After 2 very difficult field goals he won it for the Broncos.  However that being said, there seems to be something more going on here.  To get Prater in position, the entire team, including Tebow, had to outplay the Bears during crucial periods of that 4th quarter.

They did, and they did it in the last 2 minutes again.  Who in their right mind could ever bet on such a thing?  Nevertheless, they did it again.  First thing Champ Bailey said in an interview after the win was, "WOW"!

Barber had the game cinched up, until he first ran out of bounds and stopped the clock.  Then he got past the line and was ready to put Chicago in field goal range, and miraculously he coughed up the ball when  linebacker Wesley Woodyard reached out and grabbed his right arm. Amazing.

Tim Tebow has started something here.  Is faith and prayer a part of it?  Well, our Lord does some very unusual things when it casues Him to be glorified. Maybe He is involved in all this. All I can say is that if so, then New England is in for trouble next week. Heh, heh.

Amazing and wonderful.  It all happened in the last 2 minutes of the game.  Another miracle win.  You be the judge as to what is really going on.  Tebow and company is making it happen.  Do they have a secret Helper from behind the scenes?

Denver against Chicago this Sunday Dec 11th

I predicted 2 years ago that some day the Bears would come to Denver and play us on Sunday, and we would watch Josh McDaniels be humiliated at being beat by the kid he tossed out, Jay Cutler.

Well isn't it funny how things change?  Now McDaniels is gone, Jay Cutler is broken, and the Bears are coming to play the Broncos at home against the new unified and motivated team.  They have won a streak of games in a row, and they intend on winning this one too.

I believe Tebow and company will win again, but it really shouldn't be easy.  Probably will be closely matched through the first and second quarter, after which the Denver Defense will begin to dismantle the Bears and sack the QB as much as possible.

It may again be a last minute win, but I am going to predict a different scenario.  As I always say, "if I am wrong, I will admit it", so take my opinion seriously or not. Chicago now has the same record the Broncos have, and matches Detroit as well.  The thrashing we got from Detroit will not be repeated by the Bears.

In fact, this team is totally different than the Broncos the Lions played earlier in the season, and if the Bears come in here thinking they will just roll over us, they better think again.  Now we also are a 7 and 5 team just like the Bears, the Lions and the Falcons. We sit at the top, while Chicago is in a distant number 2 behind Green Bay.

Oh yeah, the Jets are also 7 and 5. Now I think that is all in that field, so does this prove anything?  Heck no, but it fills up this article.  Let's have fun this Sunday while we anticipate the Bronco Amazing once again.  I am predicting a win again.  Especially with Cutler on the DL.
