How was it not as decisive as it appeared? Led all game and they never had the ball with a chance to tie the game. That is very decisive.My concern is this. The Chiefs win was not as decisive as it appeared most of the game. There were numerous chances where the Pats avoided a turnover basically through luck. The Broncos defense is better than the Chiefs defense, and the venue is far more unpleasant to play in than Foxboro. I think these might combine to allow the Broncos to force at least two or three turnovers on the Patriots (unless they just go for a running game and don't score anything). I could then see a low scoring game where the Broncos win due to their great field position from turnovers and their better running game, so I could see a score like 17-7 Broncos.
The Bronco defense is not significantly better and may be worse than the Chiefs. The Chiefs allowed fewer points, and to your argument, had more takeaways.
At least 2 or 3 turnovers? OK you realize the Patriots under BB are BY FAR the least turnover team right?
You realize they have turned the ball over 3 times in their last 5 games combined right?
They have turned it over 3 times once on the last 2 years. They have turned it over twice 4 times this year and 8 times in 2 years, while having zero turnovers 15 times in 2 years.
Bizarre that you would be worried about the aspect of the game that this QB, HC and team are historically incredibly good at.
