What to Know

On Monday Denver take on Kansas City at 8:15 p.m. The odds don't look promising for Denver, but the bigger the opponent is, the harder they fall.

In their matchup last week, Denver came up short against Baltimore, falling 27-14. Denver got a solid performance out of Emmanuel Sanders, who rushed for 35 yards and a touchdown, and also picked up 38 reception yards; unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the win.

Meanwhile, Kansas City had a bit more than a touchdown to spare in a 38-27 victory over San Francisco. The team accrued the bulk of their points in the first half (35) and coasted on those for the victory.

Kansas City's victory lifted them to 3-0 while Denver's loss dropped them down to 2-1. In their win, Kansas City relied heavily on Patrick Mahomes, who passed for 314 yards and 3 touchdowns. Denver will need to find a way to minimize his impact if they want to win.
