Tracy Simien and Tracy Rogers are hurt. I'm down to a skeleton crew at LB, so, I move Bennie Thompson to OLB. Maybe he can help cover Sharpe.
Early returns are not promising.
Thankfully, though, I answer the Donks TD drive with my own. Marcus plunges in behind exquisite blocking. No extra points in this game, however. EA Sports is garbage.
I'm doing OK on offense, but just not getting inside scoring range and it's killing me. Denver is ahead 10-6 and driving.
BENNIE ****ING THOMPSON. USER HIT STICK. FAT MAN JOE PHILLIPS IN THE SNOW. HELL TO THE YES. GET SOME.
Now I have a chance to go ahead with a TD, and I'm not ****ing around.
GOD DAMMIT WILLIE. Why did you have to trip and fall. Thankfully, I call a play action pass on the next snap and Montana throws a perfect TD with half of Denver's defense in his face. CHIEFS LEAD! 12-10, no extra points, thanks EA.
Shit is starting to turn my way, though. Elway gets crushed by DT and Smith and I get the ball back.
The offense is starting to cook a little. I make the least game manager play ever on this throw. Suck my balls, DJ's Left Nut.
But can I capitalize?
KIMBLE ****ING ANDERS! Great run blocking in this game by KC. It's 18-10. All I have to do is hang on. But Elway is driving...
Smith throws Elway down AND BREAKS HIM. HE BREAKS HIS ****ING BACK.
SALT THIS SHIT AWAY MARCUS
I run some clock and Tommy Maddox is Denver's last hope. I stop him cold, and then Dale Carter does something REALLY STUPID.
Stupid bastard. Maddox gets a couple of first downs and has third and 1 at midfield. He looks for Shannon Sharpe.
OH. HE DROPPED IT. DONKEY DROPPED IT. LOOK HOW MAD SHARPE WAS.
I run some more clock, and Denver has one last chance with a hail mary.
CHIEFS WIN!!!!
Montana goes 17 of 24 for 234 yards, and Marcus Allen adds 106 yards on 17 carries. The Chiefs are right in the thick of the playoff race. They still need the Colts to lose. They win all other tiebreakers.
So the question is...do I force a Colts loss so we can enjoy playoff failure?
