The Chiefs were still up 21-16 with 1:13 remaining when Bowe, their top receiver, muffed an onside kick. Had Bowe hung on, the Chiefs would have knelt out the clock and the Broncos would have clinched the AFC West.

Instead, the Chargers recovered the kick and scored to beat Kansas City. The Broncos would gag away the division and miss the playoffs.

Dwayne Bowe's Week 16 onside kick muff also had quite the ripple effect on the AFC West.

See how Clark and I set all this up?

So far its working perfectly! I forgot to tell you guys about the letter I mailed him. He said DBowe was reading it over his shoulder when the plan for the onside kick came up. :)

Temperature started at 60 degrees in the parking lot at 9AM and dropped to 25 degrees by 11AM. All the tailgaters disappeared it was like a nuclear bomb went off in the parking lot at Arrowhead. I had a T-shirt on and spent way to much money in the gift shop for cold weather gear. It was a sign of what was going to happen later on in the afternoon. The Chiefs blowing a sure thing.

I can't believe we missed that this long. We suck.

I knew something good would come out of that mess-up of a game.

Quite interesting, really.

Amazing foresight, there, by D-Bowe.

If the Broncos are really counting on our ineptitude to help them win the division

then we have them where we want them!

Unfair to Bowe

Recovering onside kicks isn’t exactly easy, letting the opposition offense walk all over your defense in less than a minute on the other hand…

Blame my wife!

I can't take this article

seriously. The Broncos franchise screwing up royally and losing its franchise QB all started with one play in Kansas City that didn’t even involve the Broncos? Maybe the beginning of the article should focus more on the fact that the Broncos couldn’t manage to hold a three game lead with three games remaining, one of which was against the team you were ahead of.
