Broncos Beat Chiefs And 18 Things To Remember From The Game

Knowshon Moreno owns the Chiefs. Moreno has two career 100-yard rushing games and both came against the Chiefs. Moreno also has two career two-touchdown games and both came against the Chiefs.
Both Broncos running backs injured in the first quarter. It's a hamstring for Willie McGahee and a knee for Knowshon Moreno. The Broncos say McGahee's return is questionable and Moreno's is doubtful.
Broncos don't throw a pass in the first quarter: The Broncos ran 14 plays in the first quarter -- all rushes. Their first pass came on the first play of the second quarter.
Jonathan Baldwin might have had the best catch I've ever seen (but it didn't count). Seriously, one of the best ever. Cassel went deep to him and the Broncos defender was right on top of Baldwin, who turned around and with his hands behind the defender, he pulled in the ball and lodged it against the defender's back. Baldwin turned over and held onto the ball. But....it was all called back due to offsetting penalties.
Broncos have no passing yards in the first half. In fact, they haven't completed a pass since about nine and a half minutes left in the third quarter of last week's game. And they lead by 10 points.
Chiefs first half offense was miserable. 18 yards passing for Cassel and he's also the leading rusher with 16 yards. Punt, punt, punt....you get the idea. KC's offense did nothing in the first half.
Longest rush of the season for the Chiefs. Jackie Battle ripped off a 34-yard run for the Chiefs putting them in Broncos territory and that run is the longest on the season for KC. (Miss you, Jamaal Charles.) We're just under 11 minutes in the third quarter and the Chiefs are threatening for the first time all game.
Paper airplane all over the place. Someone from the upper level had a big paper airplane they made and threw it off the top. It cruised back and forth, left and right, through the air before finally flying right into a few of the players on the sideline. Incredible path for that paper airplane. Lots of fans are throwing paper airplanes made out of the cards they used to make the "Thank You Veterans" card.
Once again, Chiefs go from lifeless to signs of life. The first half often hasn't been kind to the Chiefs this year and that's been the case today However, as they have before (like the first San Diego game), KC's offense starts to show up in the second half. The Chiefs offense went 67 yards on eight plays to open the second half and get seven points. Here's the touchdown:
Tebow's second completed pass is a big one. His first one was a simple pass into the flat midway through the third quarter and his second one was a 56-yard strike to Eric Decker. That came on third and long, too. What a killer.
4th and five just about ends it for KC. Cassel dropped back to pass in an effort to convert on fourth down and was hit as threw, and the ball fluttered incomplete. Cassel was under pressure today and even when he had time there was never a sense that he and the Chiefs offense were going to march down the field.
Down goes Dorsey. Glenn Dorsey was injured the in the fourth quarter of the game. Trainers helped him as he walked off the field, and then they put him in a motorized cart and took him to the locker room. No word on what's wrong but he had a big leg brace on in the locker room after the game.
Chiefs lose....again. Ugh. What a terrible feeling entering Dolphins and Broncos weeks -- expecting to win -- and then losing. The locker room seemed deflated after the game, like they didn't want to have this feeling again.

No home-field advantage can compensate for how terrible this team is playing at the moment. If the Chiefs come out and play well enough to compete, the Arrowhead fans will help them win it.

19th thing to remember
Thomas jones continues to not produce… I admire his leadership in the locker room, but I’d say he’s putting himself as a prime candidate for the right 54.
Haley
Good riddens! That guy needs to go. Deer in the headlights.
I was hoping for a win
So I wouldn’t have to ignore AP for another week. Oh well, you guys are to crazy depressing and you’re mood swings are worse then a pre-teen girl.

Ya know....
I’ve stuck by Cassel for so long. I have blamed the lack of consistency in the offensive coordinator position as to why Cassel struggles. But no more. Cassel is just bad. He cannot make the throws necessary to be an effective, quality quarterback. Too many throws behind receivers or in areas they cannot catch them.
Cassel was pressured all day…but at some point, you have to know you are going to get hit and make a good throw. Cassel won’t, and is incapable of doing it.
It’s just embarrassing when you give up 2 completions and you lose. The worst football game I ever saw in person was in 2009, Browns @ Bills. The Browns won 6-3, after completing I think only 2 passes. I didn’t think it was possible to see it happen again.

I like Cassel he's a great guy but....
We’re wasting 3 extremely talented receivers and it’s a crying shame. KC should have to pay a fine or something….seriously.
I'm hoping that Cassel was trying not to give out information about the next game...
I think he injured his throwing hand pretty bad.
Go Chiefs!!!!
Can we please stop living a lie
This is a bad football team. Let’s face it our front seven only has 2 guys worth keeping DJ and Hali. After that they all need to go. We absolutely need a QB. 93 yards in a whole game, you have to be kidding me. We need to stop making excuses and admit that this team is a long way from being competitive. Don’t blame it on injuries either. I seem to remember a certain New England team winning 11 games after they lost their best player and they did it with a horrible QB ( aka Matt Cassel). The KOOL AID officially taste bad and this team needs to make changes. They keep doing the same things and expecting different results. I can’t even stand to watch any more it is to painful.

I would. They have not beat anybody good in 4 years.
The views expressed by craig in calgary do not necessarily represent the views of all Canadians.
So if they were 5-4 and in first place you would still want to can everyone?
That seems a little harsh.
It is amusing the drastic changes in who we believe in with a win or a loss. If we win today people want Haley and Pioli to build a dynasty in Kansas City.
The Chiefs lose today and people want to fire everyone. It is quite the contrast, but that is sports for you.

Your arguing with the wrong guy.
I thought they would win this game and lose out. Now I think they just lose out.

So do you think scraping the Coach/GM/ QB is the way to go?
Who is to say the new people will be any better?
What is your stance Sask?
I don’t think another rebuild is the right way to go, this regime just needs some serious adjustments a complete wipe would be silly IMO.

I think Pioli is going nowhere.
If they lose the rest of the games and don’t look competitive Haley is gone. If they win a couple or even if they play pretty good against some of these good teams the next 5 weeks he probably gets another year.
Cassel is probably the best QB on the roster (as scary as that is), but I have been done with him for the last 2 seasons. Time to move on in the offseason.
The views expressed by craig in calgary do not necessarily represent the views of all Canadians.
Who do they bring in?
If Haley were to be fired? It would have to be a Belichick disciple most likely, right? Mangini? McDaniels?
I like Todd Haley, but these game plans this year are killing me. When it comes down to it, he has to be held accountable for that.
If Nick Wright was right and Scott Pioli lied to Joel. Maybe we could see Haley fired soon. Though I doubt that. I don’t want a new coach.
I just want this regime to get its head out of its ass.

Yes changes need to occur, but it needs to be systematic.

The Chiefs need to adjust their pieces...
Insert some new draft picks, QB and healthy returning players.
They need a serious adjustment to how they build the game plans, but I don’t think they need to scrap everything. There are far to many positives.

I hope that those staying super positive understand a lot of people myself included believe in the long term plan here
I like the players they have started to put together for the most part, I think this team will be very good next year if its able to find a good QB and improve line play, but…as of now, this is an ugly time for chiefs fans and the organization.
I hope the team sticks behind head coach todd haley through this rough season, and that next year, with a full offseason to work on conditioning and getting healthy, that they will be ready to take advantage of an easier schedule.
thats about as positive as I can go at this point. its ugly

by craig in calgary on Nov 13, 2011 4:22 PM CST up reply actions
were in year 5 of rebuilding
Herm started rebuilding after Willie Roaf and Will Shields retired. Herm’s second year all he had was Tony G, J Allen,DJ and Brain Waters. The defense sucked, the WR sucked, Brain Waters was the only O lineman that was any good. Larry Johnson was overrated .
After five years our O line and D line is a mess. I hate drafting Defensive linemen
in the first and second round. It seems there are a lot of bust with D linemen.
I don’t think Dorsey fits our 3-4, I think the other player Herm drafted compliment
the players pioli drafted. Losing Berry really hurts, last year we could be more creative with our schemes on defense because Berry could cover so much field.
I didn’t like the conservative play calling when Herm was the coach, I don’t like the conservative play calling with Haley. Herm was conservative because he wanted to shorten the game because our defense sucked. I’ don’t know what Haley deal is, If he doesn’t trust his QB, He should get another QB. It’s not fair to the team, the fans and to Cassel when we play not to lose. Were not going to the playoffs,
take off the training wheels with Cassel.Were so worried about throwing an interception. Lets play to win. I don’t care if we throw an interception.
I agree
His decision making has improved and he is capable of throwing Rockets case in point Baldwin’s non catch. Let the boy loose sink or swim at least then we have a definitive answer to whether he sucks or not.
The only reason that’s in question is because he’s kept on a leash. It’s not like we’ve got much left o lose this season anyway.
every team has starters
How many of our starters are actually HIGH quality?

Let's see...
3 receivers, one, possibly two corners, the kicker, the punter, Hali, DJ… I like Lewis but he still needs work… and of course the 3 on IR.
That pretty much covers it.
I have to wonder if hes had long enough to build the roster

This is what I find amusing
when we play good and are winning its all cuz of the team and “core” players that Herm gave us but when we play bad and lose with those same “core” players its all cuz of Pioli

There are a handful of folks on either side of the Haley/Pioli fence who play that rhetorical game...
I just look past it.
My take? They’ve BOTH got at least another year, maybe two, before these kinds of questions are legit (and Todd moreso than Scott). But we are woefully weak on depth still…we’ve developed the guys who’re here in a way that they didn’t, and maybe wouldn’t have when Herm and Team were around…
Today was a major embarassment, though, in my mind. We definitely aren’t a “good” team but we’re fiesty enough to beat (or lose to) anyone.

We also draft the Berrys
and the Baldwins… not every pick can be great and Dexter has his uses. e just need him to have more with Charles out.
Berry and Baldwin
were no-brainers, best talent on the board and a position of need. You can honestly tell me we needed a gadget player in the 2nd round? We didn’t need MORE help in the trenches? Okay, so we use the draft for those guys, I’ll go with that. We still need help in FA, right? Why then do we sit on over $30 mil every off season? WTF are we waiting for?
I agree.
This team could be very good…with a new QB and a couple impact offensive lineman. We have good WR’s, good RB’s, good CB’s and safety’s when everybody is healthy, a decent LB core, and…well…shitty d-line except Tamba.

Ok I have to get this positive crap out of my system because I'm starting to put a dress on
I predict we win exactly one more game this season, and it will be against the Green Bay Packers who will go on to finish 15-1.
We will make toasts with Miami for some reason, and they will in turn shut us out completely next time we play them because that Field Goal was a fluke.
Man it feels good to be positive.

The answer to success is NOT by firing a coach after a poor season.
I like Haley as well but after the last 2 weeks something has to change. Are the Chiefs any better today than they were in 2008?
by NFL season ticket holder on Nov 13, 2011 4:58 PM CST up reply actions
The change...
should be removing Cassel from the lineup next week. I don’t care who we play. Cassel is not making the decisions/plays to be managing a game, or being called an effective qb.
Haley has had it tough this year, with injuries playing a large role. That touchdown to Decker near the end of the game I don’t think would have happened if Berry were in the lineup. #48 had no idea the ball was coming until it was already too late.
I think Haley is very influential to this team. He yells. I like yelling. It gets the players pumped up, and when someone gets pissed, it sends a message. Our talent pool is just not there though.

Say hello to Palko
I know it was garbage time but he looked good. Had they recovered the onside kick AND gotten the six, I say go for two and win this thing. I still have faith in Dex. I don’t care about his “issues”. His fumble during MNF was not a fumble and they got the call correct this week.
As for Haley, I still like him. We need a different QB and some changes on the Offensive Line. I say give Palko the chance next week and bench Cassel. Palko showed that he could drive down the field with great speed. Garbage time is still time played.
In the mean time, I am glad I have a second team to root for. Blaine Gabbert has CRAP to throw to and a TE that can’t catch and he still does a good job.

Next year
We will be back in the playoffs. The lockout and injuries have absolutely demolished this team. Lack of depth, of course, is still an issue. It just kills me inside when players from the first round of the draft completely fall on their face. Dorsey and Jackson were supposed to be amazing. They were both utterly dominant presences in college, but for whatever reason neither of them has brought their game to the NFL. Haley is a good coach, with a sh*tty OC, a lack of depth, and a whole lotta bad luck.

Still Jackson can't play even if it was the 15th DE taken--which is they rewrote the 2009 draft is where he would fall.
The guy is terrible. He is either getting pushed out of the play or on the ground when he tries to take on the offensive line low. They just push him to the ground. The man is a terrible DL period!.

We need a QB, nose guard, center, offensive tackle, and better coordinators.
I’m willing to give Haley one more year if the needed changes and additions are addressed. If they aren’t and there is no drastic improvement on both sides of the ball, then Pioli and Haley need to go.
im with that. I think they get another year. if its this next year...then its a failure
but something tells me minus freak injuries next season will be a good one

The Chiefs in the last 2 weeks have allowed their opponent to take away their will away and have proven it everyone-- the national media, Jack Harry, Frank Boal, and the guys at 810--- right that they are a bad football team.
It was disgusting to watch the Dolphins and Broncos come into our house and have a will to want to win more that the Chiefs players prepared and played. You can say the Chiefs are under manned and they lack a lot of talent but to have no life and play and coach as poorly as they did in these 2 games—-The whole season has been disgusting to watch!!.

Where is Kelly Gregg?
Seems like KC can’t stop the run. They need to go out and get some FAs that can. I think it’s time to start Hudson, Stanzi, and Powe. If we are going to lose the next 5 games, why not give these guys the best test of their life?
Stanzi a longshot to see the field
Haley always plays the older player unless he absolutely just can’t. Palko might finish the season but i doubt that as well barring a MC injury, and unlucky for us, MC is pretty durable.

I haven't see anything
To indicate Palko would be an improvement over Cassel. I wish I could say otherwise. It would be great if we had a convenient replacement right here in KC.
I'm surprised how so many on AP and the were ragging Haley about his sideline demeanor.
Now nobody has mentioned a word about how meek and quiet he’s been on the sidelines this year. I think he’s afraid to show his emotions. However, players need to see their coaches show some fire sometimes. I say bring back a slightly modified version of the old spirited Haley.
Oh its been mentioned...
Maybe not on this thread but its been said and the response was something like…
“1st you complain he’s too temperamental and then complain he’s too docile”
Yep it’s been covered.
One last thing, it was reported Cassel left the stadium in a cast
on his throwing hand. Stanzi will see some action very soon

Starting Calabaloo Falko is not the answer.

I just think that Stanzi is a left armed semi-athletic QB that is in KC for training purposes, like this week.
Which didn’t even really help that much today.
He is not a genuine NFL starter and I feel that starting him would be a waste of time. He is not Steve Young, Jim Zorn or even Tim Tebow. He was a average college QB, with below average pro skills.
He might be okay for a series or two, but IMO he is not the answer. He looks lost out there, looks unnatural and it takes him five hours to get rid of the ball in the times I have seen him play. He throws off balance and has a seriously low release point for someone of his small height. That is scary stuff.
Personally, I think Stanzi is the way to go. He has the college pro style offense experience. Tremendous size and he is a gamer. I don’t believe he is truly the answer at QB, but I feel that he could give this team a spark and it would be great experience for him at this point in time.

He has good feet and the line gives Cassel some time, Cassel just hesitates often. I don’t think Stanzi would do that as much, that is the hope anyway.
injuries are always a concern, but I don’t want to not look at the guy this year because he might get hurt. He might get hurt next year too. There is no benefit to playing Palko over Stanzi in my opinion. Zero.
I secretly hope that they have been grooming Stanzi behind the scenes for weeks now for this moment, but that is wishful thinking.

What's Haley's marquee win as a coach?
In 42 games as a head coach you would assume that he has a “big” win over a good team. Would it be the last second win against the 9-7 Chargers in the MNF game to start last season? Or the MNF win this year against the same Chargers team who handed the game to us on a platter, the same team that is 4-5 and has lost 4 in a row? I can’t think of any other big wins, and if one of those is his crowning achievement, well that’s pretty sad.

Worse loss in the Haley era in my opinion.
We faced a team that we knew exactly what they were going to do, and they still ahd no problem doing it, and shoved it down our throats. We lost to a QB that is not able to successfully pass the football, in the NFL, forcing an entire NFL team to run college option plays. We couldn’t do anything offensively,against a defense that is one of the worse in the league, and all of this happened at home. We blew our chances to at least have a winning record, during the easiest part of our schedule. This team has too much individual talent to play like they have this season, with the extreme inconsistency. We have the best receiving core we have had in years, and a running game that should be better than it is, even without Charles, with McClain at FB and the combination of Jones, Battle and a very underperforming Dex. Our running game was successful enough to keep teams honest, for 2 or 3 games, and has now disappeared. We have what should be one of the top secondaries in the NFL, who have displayed that ability, only to make Matt Moore look like Marino (which is a Haley quote) last week. This team has lost it;s direction, and I don’t know who to blame right now. Ultimately, they look like a poorly coached and unprepared team, who seem confused alot of the time. I think the effort is still there, by most of the players, but thay don’t seem have a clue what their role is anymore. No excuse for this, injuries or not. Good teams overcome injuries, and we are not a good team right now, in fact, we have no business being on an NFL football field, with that level of play. As someone who has defended them, even during some bad times, I have no answer for this, nor is it acceptable to us fans.
There once was a man from Nantucket......Nevermind.
I agree... The last 2 weeks have been disgusting losses. I have defended Haley for 3 years but can't do it anymore.
Every team has injuries so that is just excuses that losers use.
We were lucky that Denver’s best running back got hurt in the 1st 5 minutes of the game. Otherwise—they would have ran for 400 yards.

Disclaimer: Comments above are not meant to be taken with a grain of salt.
we desparately need to upgrade our Offensive line if we're going to make a living passing
without the Charles-led rushing attack we can’t keep the pressure off Matt and he’s not that good a quarterback to succeed without a lot of time. Heck he’s not that good with time. If I’m coaching, we’d make these changes going into next week. Stanzi so we see what we have, Hudson for Wegman (we just are too small on the interior line) and Gaither at left tackle for Albert, Albert to rt tackle for BRich. Let’s start putting together an offense that we can win with in the future and get them some experience.
Damn It!!!!

I agree. The D is not the problem. Despite one really poorly covered deep ball and the opening drive they played fairly well. If the offense could move the ball at all it would make our defense look much better. The main thing our defense lacks is a couple good D linemen to compliment Hali. Our pass rush is pathetic.

Pushed Around
Both lines got pushed all over the field, all afternoon. I thought Gregg and Dorsey were the real deal. They’re not. I was watching when Weigman (sp) and Lilja would come onto the field prior to each drive. They look like midgets compared to Dener’s D-Line. This team can win if they one, play well; two, get a couple of turnovers. Otherwise, they aren’t even an average NFL team. The talent level really isn’t where it needs to be.
Cassel
Cassel is playing the best he can while he is running for his life. Our Oline is pitiful at the moment. How do you expect anyone to play under center in those conditions? For those of you who are calling for Cassel’s head, obviously haven’t watched the last two games. Our Oline is a JOKE at the moment.
Lilja and Weigman look awful this year. Why aren’t we giving Hudson a shot? I have no idea… why aren’t we running Battle 30 times a game, I have no idea… Why does Baldwin play 4 plays a game, I have no idea….
This team looks lost at the moment from the top down. Zero fun to watch. To all of you who think we miss Charles badly… we actually miss Berry and Moeaki more… Our safeties look lost without him. McGraw is probably a nice guy and all, but he’s so slow it’s not even funny anymore. Don’t even get me started on Piscatelli… Langford looked good until he was burnt but I don’t blame him when you’re looking for the run 99.9% of the time against Denver. I’m convinced people only think Lewis is good because Berry was so amazing that Lewis looked decent…
Moeaki can block and stretch the field.. Something Pope, OConnell, Beacht and whoever the hell else is in there can’t. Our tight ends are HORRIBLE right now.
Richardson might as well just sit on the sidelines and let us play for four O-linemen… he has been surprisingly horrible this year, worse than Wigeman.
Thank god we have DJ on defense, only enjoyable thing to watch all year.
I would hate to be Cassel right now. Everyone hates and doubts you, when you’re actually pretty good (I didn’t use to think so), and your team is playing at its absolute worst. Of course, it is ALWAYS the qb’s fault. No one cares how many wins or losses a starting running back or starting middle linebacker has…
I have no idea what the answer is, I always look forward to Sundays and was feeling pretty good PRIOR to the Dolphins game… but why should I be anymore surprised at the moment….AND we have the Royals to look forward too… woohoo…not.
