I'm being obtuse. Gotta stick with things at which I excel.The issue isn't Denver laying down. Maybe you are missing the point.The issue is Kansas City. This isn't the same KC team we saw in weeks 1-3. Why is that? Perhaps because they know this Denver team. Perhaps because there was a little more emotion there for the players trying to beat the top dog in their division. This is a team they HAVE to catch to make the playoffs. It is a playoff game for KC.Do you really not get it, or are you just being obtuse?With all due respect, Kansas City played much better today. Had Denver played better, they likely would have won.I realize I'm alone on the island in my opinion, but blaming a loss on a division rivalry is an easy excuse. K.C. kicked their ###.If anyone would like to check the score of the KC/DEN game, and still has questions about the importance of divisional rivalries, go ahead and post them here.
