Surprised, not shocked

So the Denver Broncos lost last week to the Kansas City Chiefs. Their hopes for an undefeated season are gone. Everyone expected the Broncos to roll to an easy victory - all five Denver Post columnists picked the Broncos, and there were a couple of inflammatory articles in the Sunday paper about how awful the Chiefs are. So that pretty much guaranteed a Chiefs victory.

As for me, I was cautiously optimistic about the Broncos' chances. For some reason, they have never done well in Arrowhead Stadium, especially since Mike Shanahan became coach. Under his leadership, the Broncos are 4-11 when playing @ Kansas City. Apparently everyone believes that history was swept away because the Broncos did win at Arrowhead last year. But I guess some things never change.
