2. Gary Kubiak opens up the playbook
I know this will be more of a miracle than a bold prediction, but a week before a bye, a four-game losing streak and having a quarterback making his first start … why not do something different, because what has worked in the past sure as heck isn’t working this season.

Nothing on the offense side, besides the running of Arian Foster, has impressed me much this season on a consistent basis. Sure, there have been spurts here and there, but overall, it has been the same ol’, same ol’ with the play calling this season.

Again, why not break out of the mold and do something different? The team is already the underdog in this one against a resurgent Chiefs team who has all of the momentum … do something different, because it might work.
