What to Know

The Denver Broncos are 0-10 against the Kansas City Chiefs since November of 2016, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Sunday. Denver and Kansas City will face off in an AFC West battle at 8:20 p.m. ET at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The Broncos have a defense that allows only 17.82 points per game, so Kansas City's offense will have their work cut out for them.

Denver didn't have too much trouble with the Los Angeles Chargers at home last week as they won 28-13. Denver can attribute much of their success to RB Javonte Williams, who punched in one rushing touchdown, and QB Teddy Bridgewater, who passed for one TD and 129 yards on 18 attempts in addition to punching in one rushing touchdown. Bridgewater ended up with a passer rating of 139.60.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs had a touchdown and change to spare in a 19-9 victory over the Dallas Cowboys two weeks ago. The squad ran away with 16 points in the first half and mostly just sat on those in the second to pick up the win. No one had a standout game offensively for Kansas City, but they got scores from TE Travis Kelce and RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

The Broncos are expected to lose this next one by 9.5. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 2-0 against the spread when expected to lose.

The wins brought Denver up to 6-5 and Kansas City to 7-4. Denver is 3-2 after wins this season, the Chiefs 3-3.
