Today, another team-related question deals specifically with one team:







You had to pick a team that not only would face the Broncos, but would beat them at least once. Some went safe with a divisional opponent, some risked it, and some picks were head-scratchers to say the least.



6 different teams beat Denver this year, including 4 playoff teams. They all could "be the champ by beating the champ".

Let's see who chose wisely, who didn't, and who ended up like Ric Flair Finance.

THIS IS THE QUESTION 22 REVEAL!

I am incorrect today, and it's my final incorrect of the game.

My choice hosted Denver in Week 10, right before Denver's bye. It was a back-and-forth game, and the hosts seemed set to take the lead with less than 2:00 minutes left.

And then.....







Rawlz can verify that I took the New Orleans Saints as my answer to Question 22. I should have known better than to rely on the Saints at home.

TheNoodleMan's answer is next - if you've been paying attention, you know who he took.

His team traveled to Denver, and it was a close game into the 4th quarter, but Denver scored a pair of defensive TD's to seal the win. It meant yet another 0-2 start for.....

15 of us took the most popular incorrect.

Denver went 4-4 on the road in 2016, but this was one of their wins. They had lost at Oakland the week before, and their bye week awaited them at the end of the game.

Justin Simmons jumped and blocked, and Will 'White Shoes' Parks did the rest. The toughest of tough beats for the 15 of us that took.....

Denver went 9-7 in 2016, and the 7 losses came to 6 different teams.

We learned earlier that Houston was the only unplayed 2016 Denver opponent, thus all 6 correct teams were taken by the 64 correct entrants.

For the third straight question, we have no unplayed aces. Congratulations!

I'm always surprised that so many people don't answer with an in-division opponent. You double your odds!

edit: Okay, so it was about 2:1 favor of division : non-division; that actually sounds about right.

The SHEEP this afternoon is worth 29 points.

The 3 most popular correct answers are the other 3 teams from the AFC West. But today's SHEEP defeated Denver in Week 9.

This team led Denver 20-10 at halftime, and held on for the win. Latavius Murray scored 3 TD's, as Denver (at the time) fell to 6-3.

29 of you took.....

There are questions where it makes sense to take risks, because the SHEEP and incorrect scores aren't going to be that far apart.

The 'defeat the defending champs' question is one of them.

The next answer, worth 20, was the one team to sweep Denver this year.

In Week 12, they won a wild Sunday nighter at Denver, when Gary Kubiak's bonehead decision led to a last-play OT loss.

Four weeks later, they beat them again, ensuring we'd have a new champ in 2016.

20 of you selected.....

CORRECT ANSWER

The Kansas City Chiefs
20 points
