Broncos at Chiefs: Third Quarter Notes

September 28th, 2008 - 12:49pm by Adam Zinser

15:00: Novak kicks off to Hall, who takes it out to the 35-yard line, and that’s where Cutler and the offense will take the field for the first drive of the second half.

14:20: Hall carries the ball twice for short gains, and now it’s third-and-five at the 40.

13:40: Cutler hits Royal down the left side for 28 yards to the Chiefs’ 32.

13:08: After an incomplete pass that was ruled as a rush for no yards and fumble, it’s second-and-16 from the 37. Cutler fires into the endzone for Royal, but it sails incomplete.

12:30: Cutler hits Pittman in the flats for a short gain, and Prater comes out to attempt a 51-yarder to tie it up. It’s good, and the score is tied at 13.

12:13: Prater kicks off to Charles, and he takes it out to the 37 before being taken down by Hall.

12:06: Johnson carries around the left end for 17 yards before being forced out of bounds by Bly.

McCree is down on the field, with the training staff attending to him.

McCree is up and walking to the sidelines on his own.

11:59: Huard complets his pass to Bowe for a gain of eight yards to the Denver 38. Second-and-two.

11:00: Johnson carries around the right end for the first down and a gain of nine.

10:00: After a short run and short pass, it’s third-and-seven at the Denver 26. Kansas City calls their first timeout of the second half.

9:28: The pass is complete to Charles, but Boss Bailey runs him out of bounds for a one-yard gain. Novak comes out and is good on a 43-yard field goal.

The Chiefs retake the lead, 16-13, over the Broncos.

8:43: Clifford Russell is now back to return the kick. He takes it out to the 19 before getting taken down.

8:37: Cutler completes to Marshall out near the left sideline. He makes several nice moves and cuts inside, evading some tacklers, before being taken down at the 40. It’s a 21-yard gain.

7:45: Cutler calls Denver’s first timeout of the second half.

7:45: Cutler’s pass falls incomplete, and that brings up third-and-10 from the 40.

7:41: Cutler’s pass was intercepted by Derrick Johnson and returned seven yards.

7:30: With the Chiefs’ offense back on the field, Johnson carries to the right side and is hit by Champ Bailey, who forces a fumble, and the Broncos recover.

The play is currently under review.

Also, Marlon McCree is back on defense.

The ruling has been upheld. Denver ball at their own 45.

7:21: Young carries to the right side but is stopped for no gain.

6:45: Cutler fires down the right sideline for Marshall, but the ball is intercepted by Brandon Carr and taken back into Denver territory, setting the Chiefs up at the 47.

5:30: It’s third-and-three from the Denver 40. Huard fires down the left sideline for Bowe, but he doesn’t make the catch as he’s going out of bounds.

Out comes Colquitt for his second punt of the day.

Royal fair caught it at the 14.

4:00: It’s third-and-short at the 24. Cutler’s attempted pass for Pittman falls incomplete, and Kern comes out to punt.

Kern punts 51 yards, and the Chiefs have the ball at their own 27.

INJURY UPDATE: Andre Hall has a sprained right wrist and his return is questionable.

3:00: Huard completes his pass to Gonzalez, his first catch of the day, for 14 yards and a first down at the K.C. 44.

1:30: Huard completes a pass to Johnson, and he picks up four yards before being taken down by Boss Bailey. Third-and-four at the 50.

A delay of game penalty is called, backing the Chiefs up five yards. It’s now third-and-nine from the 45.

Huard completes his pass to Bowe for 17 yards and a first down, and that brings the third quarter to a close.

  4. broncoinexile says:

    only because the cheaps suck worse . . .

    and by “in this” you mean down by 3, showing no offense and a defense that coughs up 17 yards on 3rd and 9, we’re definitely in something

    I’m at the game right now and I could probably go play qb for the chiefs right now. There’s no pass rush!
