When you are ahead of other teams you can worry about rushing the passer instead of playing the run. I don't think that they could stop KC and they didn't do a great job against the Bengals.
Now that next week's scenarios are set, I'm going to go out on a limb & say I don't think The Pats are going to get by the Bustin' Broncos. With the addition of Jake the Snake, they've finally found a replacement for Elway (no, I didn't say they'll ever be able to find someone as GOOD as Elway), and they're a balanced team again. Tough enough for anybody to win there, but...one thing stands out to me...the Colts, Bears, & Seahawks all rested their starters & threw their last games, since they had nothing more to gain. The Broncos were in the same position, but didn't do that. That's pure heart. Not sayin' they'll kick their ass-just think they'll win. We'll see. Denver may turn out to be the surprise in the AFC. Too bad about Palmer, that pretty much sealed the Bengals doom-I think they'd have won if it hadn't been for losing him.
