Broncos vs Cheifs Record

[glennst]

Here is an analysis of the Broncos, Chiefs matchups over the years.

Since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, the Broncos have beat the Chiefs 10 times more than the Chiefs have beaten the Broncos (not including the playoff win). In that 36 year span, both teams split the wins in 20 different years (05, 04, 03, 01, 97, 96, 94, 93, 92, 90, 88, 86, 84, 83, 81, 79, 75, 74, 73, 70).

Chiefs are 51-41 against the Broncos. You have it backwards my friend.

Not since the NFL merger in 1970. If you go back to 1960 and include the Dallas Texans wins, it is 48 Denver 56 Chiefs/Texans.

Not since the NFL merger in 1970.

Convenient, why does that matter? You're just leaving out the era where we dominated the Broncos because it makes it look better.

[Tombstone RJ]

Because you suck.

[SportinOne]

usually the score comes after the team name and not the other way around..

like Clippers 115 Nuggets 97, not 115 Clippers 97 Nuggets.

to each their own i guess.

I included both in my analysis. I did not leave anything out.

However, I am more interested in the Broncos wins that ocurred in my lifetime. Basically the Chiefs haven't dominated the Broncos since 1969 (pre-NFL days).

1970-2005 Broncos
1960-1969 Chiefs

As much as I'd like to say that the Broncos are ahead of the Chiefs, I can't. You can't just go back to one point in time. You can't start counting at the merger. As of right now, the Chiefs have the head-to-head advantage, because the Broncos sucked ass in the '60s, when the Chiefs were good.

Al Davis tries this very same thing. When he was saying the Raiders had the best winning percentage in all of sports, he was counting from the time when he started to coach the team. He left off their first few years, when they were horrible.

I have called out Raider fan on that many times. If I hold the Raiders to that, then I have to hold the Broncos to that.

But we will catch the Chiefs, and the Raiders.

The Chiefs can have the head-to-head. We've got them big time in playoff wins, and we got them in Super Bowls.

1970-2005 Broncos


This is also a hoot. In the last 15 years the series is split almost 50/50.

I am not saying that the Broncos are ahead of the Chiefs. I am only saying we have been gaining on the Chiefs since 1970. In the AFL years, the Chiefs gained a 19 game advantage over us, but we have been catching up to them in the past 30 years.

NFL 1970-Present (regular season):
Denver 47
KC 37

47-37 = 10
Broncos have a 10 game advantage since 1970.

Yes, they usually split wins, but Denver has been winning in Arrowhead more than the Chiefs have been winning in Denver since 1970.

The only reason for that is our piss-poor decade of the 1980s.

Coincidentally, those were also the Elway years.

I get what you are saying, and I want to jump on board with you on it. But it just doesn't work like that.

If we can have it like that, then we can just go on and say the Chiefs haven't won a title before...hey, wait a minute. After giving this some very serious thought, I'm on board.

Ha, the Chiefs have never won a title. ;D

Thanks, I try.

[Old Dude]

The Chiefs had some amazingly talented teams back in the late 60's & early 70's. If I were I Chiefs fan, I'd be bitterly disappointed to have come out of that with only one Super Bowl win.

Of course they have...it was just decades ago.

I get where this poster is coming from. The Donks were doormats for years...it was before my time. But when they finally got good...they stayed that way for the most part ever since.

They've been to six friggin' superbowls...5 of them with the best quarterback in NFL history...a la...The Great John Elway under center.

The fact is they lost a lot of games early on...but they've been in the conversation more often than not over the past thirty years...and I think it's fair to say that the Chiefs have been too...They just can't win in the playoff months...They do their winning in March and April, and August. Although they're tough as nails in Arrowhead...in December.

I do admit that I still have a flannel shirt that I was wearing the last time the Chiefs actually won a playoff game. Alice in Chains still rules.

2 Super Bowl trophies is better than one rusted trophy.

You guys wont barely get to .500 this year any way why dont we talk about that. I think trent Green turns 37 and Kessison turns 33 also Surtian is breaking down as well. I almost forgot youre o-line avrages like 31 years of age chief. Enough of the past were are you guys going now?
:wave:
BYE BYE

P.S. I hope you saved this issue of SI its a good one.

I especially respect the chefs winning percentage against the Broncos when they weren't even the chefs, or in KC (can you feel the sarcasm).

That wasn't the chefs. That was the Dallas Texans. Different town, different set of circumstances.

As much as I'd love to pretend the Chiefs are ahead the Donks have won two rings in the last 10 years.

I wasn't alive in 60. Or even 70.

I really don't give a fat frog's ass what happened then.

Did you copy this post from last year?

[Jason in LA]

Were the Chiefs over .500? I seemed to have forgotten. I was only following playoff teams. ;D

[Tom A Hawk]

Well, those are interesting stats and a pretty good analysis. However, a lot of work to end up simply saying that when these two teams get together, a game is on. Record pretty much is 50-50 no matter how you spin it.
