Ho Hum Donks Done

You tried to get cool and say peace, save that peace for a jigsaw
Stay back and watch a real MC get raw...

DROPS: If you have come to expect the hard hitting analysis on Mondays from the SG you really need to bookmark ESPN or something where you get more than "the QB from the other teams looks like (famous actor.)" However, there will be even less in the wake of the Donks playoff-eliminating loss to the Chiefs. Why? Apathy. That's a big word around Denver lately: fan apathy. The Commish subscribed to it during the game, choosing instead to decorate the Festivus Pole and get all holiday-ish around the crib while seeing bits and pieces of the game. Unfortunately, I think many fellow Donk fans did the same. Wait until the last two home games of the year, as I hear the "stay home to send a message" chant spreading throughtout the airwaves and interwebs. Good seats available.

PROPS: Knowshon Moreno broke off some key runs and posted some big yards. Is he finally getting his legs after battling injuries for two years? Is the Donk OL gelling after injuries decimated them over the enitre season? Or was it simply luck with KC defenders not playing very well and the fact outside of Tamba Hali (cool name, reminds me of a late 1980s rapper with a dashiki and Africa medallion. By the way, was it cool for white or Hispanic kids to wear those medallions? Because I knew kids who did everyday) the Chiefs are pretty slim on defense?

DROPS: Passes to the tight end are basically non-existant in McHoody's offense. All short range passes are to backs out of the backfield. That's a problem when one of your highest paid players in Daniel Graham is basically running aimlessly on passes and blocking the rest of the time.

DROPS: Nice bro hug between McD and Todd Haley at the conclusion of the game. What Magic Johnson and Isiah couldn't coax you two into kissing eachother?

DROPS: Kyle Orton looked absolutely awful. His passes had no zip and they were off the mark by several yards. One has to wonder if all the early season chucking it around the yard has taken it's toll on Orton's arm. Check him out, it's not like he's a physical specimen behind center. Orton has had the timeless ability to no be able to finish games or lead game winning drives. Perhpas he is similar to a pitcher getting into the ninth inning running out of gas.
