Broncos–Chiefs at Mile High Puts Denver’s Sack Leader Against Mahomes in Pivotal AFC West Test

Oddsmakers favor Kansas City despite Denver’s 10-game home streak.

Overview

  • Denver (8-2) hosts Kansas City (5-4) on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET at Empower Field, airing on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.
  • The Broncos lead the NFL with 46 sacks through 10 games, setting up a marquee challenge for Patrick Mahomes, who is noted for creating explosive plays under pressure.
  • Denver will be without All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain II and running back J.K. Dobbins, with rookie RJ Harvey expected to take on a larger role.
  • Betting markets have the Chiefs at -3.5 with a moneyline around -205, an unusual stance given Denver’s active 10-game home winning streak.
  • A Chiefs road win would meaningfully shift AFC West futures toward Kansas City, which has captured nine straight division titles.
