seems divided opinion
OTOH, bruschi and reiss both picked the pats to win.

It's interesting that so few took KC at home. I thought it might be a little more divided with the massive noise advantage, outdoor stadium and Denver facing some nagging injuries.

Yeah, the Broncos have not been a strong road team and KC is a tough place to play. The Broncos defense has been suspect of late and their offense doesn't travel well. I am picking KC myself.

My "expert" analysis picks New England and Kansas city. No particular reason

KC receivers haven't scored a touchdown all year they have no offense other than Jamaal I guess only thing going for them.is homefield

They are a much better team than St. Louis on both sides of the ball and they crushed the Broncos. I would say they are a better team than Miami and Miami were an failed onside kick from potentially sending that game last week into overtime or outright winning in Denver.

They have a lot more going for them than homefield. They have good defense going up against an offense that struggles on the road.

eric berry is a loss for the chiefs .plus manning seems to always play well vs that defense ,has never lost to them. this is the best opportunity for kc to get them

Froob · Nov 28, 2014

I'm at least 5-6 wins above all these "experts" and I have Pats and Chiefs. So there you have it

BlueThunder · Nov 28, 2014

I'm TOTALLY surprised that Jackson picked GB instead of the Pats.

SVN · Nov 28, 2014

Iam surprised so many people are picking the pats on the road that too in lambeau. Just like everyone picked the broncos on the road in foxboro.

Rob0729 · Nov 29, 2014

BTW, Here is the reason why I think the Chiefs win on Sunday night. From the Denver Post:

The Broncos like to travel with some bad habits.

Peyton Manning has recently liked to bring along a pair of interceptions. His offense, however, likes to travel light, leaving points, yards and touchdowns behind in Denver. And the defense has given up more yards, especially on the ground, while recording fewer sacks.

This season the Broncos have won only twice on the road, to the 2-9 Jets and 1-10 Raiders, while dropping games in Seattle, New England and St. Louis. In all, they've tallied 11.3 fewer points per game on the road, while Manning has recorded five more interceptions, his backs have averaged 50.2 fewer yards per game and his receivers have caught 1.1 fewer touchdowns per game

Losing Berry will hurt the Chiefs in this one big time

Because they are the best in the league and are beating good teams. But this test will be very tough.

They lose and the crown of the best will go to the packers

Will be interesting to see if GB has a good enough defense to be the best in the league.

If they put up 40 on the pats it won't matter..but they only put up 27 or so..i think pats win

Are you saying there's no chance the Pats score 40+?

I think that it evens out if Talib is out or considerably less than 100%.

Also as Greg Bedard says, Manning falls apart when conditions aren't perfect. It is supposed to be windy and cold in KC tomorrow night. It is going to be in the 20s (feel like the teens) with winds up to 20 MPH. Add the crowd noise and Manning could be one of KC's best defensive weapons.

Tomorrow night looks to be a night of whoever has the better running game has the advantage. And that goes to KC.
