Overview
- Kickoff is set for Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET at Empower Field at Mile High, with coverage on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.
- Despite Denver leading the division at 8-2, sportsbooks list Kansas City at -3.5 with a total of 44.5 points.
- Denver’s defense enters with 46 sacks through 10 games, but the Broncos will be without Patrick Surtain II, J.K. Dobbins and Alex Singleton.
- Kansas City comes off a bye with recent contributions from Rashee Rice following his return, bolstering an offense graded well by success-rate metrics.
- A Broncos win would pressure the Chiefs’ nine-year AFC West title run, while contrasting close-game records (Denver 6-2, Kansas City 0-4) loom large.
