Blog Picks (5-3-1)

Oh, this spot is like finding a golden ticket in a chocolate bar! First off, Javonte Williams, their star running back, is hobbling around with a hip injury. He’s probably feeling about as spry as a sloth in a snail race. I mean, he was slogging along with a paltry 3.6 yards per carry even before his hip decided to throw in the towel.

In his absence, Jaleel Mcglaughlin has been tearing up the turf, (as I said on the week 6 Episode of the Smoke Shop)making the Broncos’ ground game look like a well-oiled machine. And don’t forget Semaje Perine, who’s been chipping in too. Now, here’s the kicker – Kansas City’s defense has been tighter than a pickle jar this season. Only two running backs have managed to break through their line of defense (David Montgomery and Breece Hall), and it’s more likely that the Chiefs will force Denver to throw in the towel on the running game.

There are more ways for this bet to go under than there are flavors at an ice cream shop, and if Williams ends up sitting this one out, well, it’s a free pass. I’m telling you, this spot is as sweet as a cherry on top of a sundae!
