I think the record for home teams on TNF is kind of bonkers 

This is my thought.  I do pickems and I always pick home team unless it's a clear better road team, IE NE at home vs Bills.  Just raw split is like 70% win rate for home teams because the short week is much harder for a road team than it is for a road team.  That said, because it's not a timezone change I think that plays into our favor and creates a normal style road game scenario.

Doesn't really matter, we're playing with house money in this game. It's an AFC opponent, on the road, and we don't need the W for our record since we probably only need 5 more wins for a Wild Card berth with 8 games remaining. They call it Thursday Night fugball for a reason, I would take anything that happens in this game with a grain salt.

Way to go for mediocre... We want to win the division and a loss will put us even further behind the Saints.  Until the Saints lose, ALL games are big

After our last 3 wins, I think we can overcome the odds and beat the Steelers by 14. We are putting together great games and the offense and defense have been picking up for each other. This type of complementary play is exactly what you need to beat good teams in tough times.

      I don't know about you but I have been a life long Chiefs fan for the past 4 years.

      If "fans" would have came out today we would have made up those 3-points in home field advantage.

      Sure there's a ton of transplants in Colorado now. But as far as Denver in particular goes the Broncos have also been around for 65 years. Someone moving to Denver is going to be far more likely to become a fan of the Broncos and even attend games versus someone moving to Charlotte and the Panthers. Like I said it's not just one single thing with us it's multiple factors.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      He's definitely getting better. It's fun to watch.  I've been getting killed for this take, but with the current state of college football, it just takes more time to develop a quarterback. I don't think it's a plug and play position anymore. I'm really not sure if it ever was. NFL offenses have always been substantially more complex than the college game, and the college game has simplified even more in recent years. Many college teams do not have a physical playbook anymore. That's just not the national football league.  Are there freaks who have success from day 1? Yes, without question. But so many of those guys are runners, and so many of those guys tail off. Is Bryce ever going to be Josh Allen? Probably not.  What I am seeing is a guy with complete command of the offense. He's checking into things at the line, making adjustments, and making timely throws.  He goes to David Moore a ton, because Moore is a consistent route runner. Bryce knows where he is and when he should be open. I think the guy with the "super processor" needs to be comfortable in the offense in order to do the "super processing." He doesn't have elite arm talent, and he is small of stature, but if he makes the smart play consistently, and he's willing to throw the ball downfield and not make mistakes, like he's starting to show, he's going to be a starter for a long time in this league, and it's not a position I'd spend draft capital right now.
