Chiefs on TV

I'm trying to get psyched up for the NFL after not thinking about it for six months. Now that I'm in Denver, I was curious if I was going to get more Chiefs games on TV. Here's the 2010 breakdown for Chiefs games, whether or not they were aired in these markets.

Week 1: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Week 2: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 3: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Week 4: bye

Week 5: Denver: N, Chicago: Y

Week 6: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 7: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 8: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 9: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Week 10: Denver: Y, Chicago: Y

Week 11: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 12: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 13: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Week 14: Denver: N, Chicago: N

Week 15: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Week 16: Denver: N, Chicago: N
Week 17: Denver: Y, Chicago: N

Denver: 7 of 16 Chiefs games
Chicago: 2 of 16 Chiefs games

That's a pretty good improvement.

Looking forward to 2011

They have 2 games on Monday Night Football
The Chiefs play the Broncos twice
And they have a Sunday Night NBC game, though it is in the flex window so it's not guaranteed

But that's 5 games right off the bat. And I just took a quick look at the Broncos schedule. They play virtually all their games at 2:15 (mountain time) and the Chiefs play all their games at Noon (central time). So I would expect to get upwards of 10 Chiefs games on tv this year. The increase from 2010 would come from the primetime games.
