Broncos face biggest test yet against the desperate Chiefs as KC tries to get back in AFC West race
Denver leads AFC West with 8-2 record, powered by league-best 46 sacks, as Kansas City seeks to recover from four one-score losses and key injuries.
- On Sunday, the Denver Broncos host the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11, with Denver at 8-2 on a seven-game winning streak and Kansas City 5-4 after a bye and loss in Buffalo.
- Built on defense, Denver's front leads the league with 46 sacks and tops third-down and red-zone touchdown defenses, while Kansas City struggles with close losses and missing Isiah Pacheco.
- With multiple starters sidelined, Denver relies on backups as Patrick Surtain II, J.K. Dobbins, and Alex Singleton miss Sunday's game, while Quinn Meinerz manages an undiagnosed illness but remains available.
- This matchup could reshape the AFC West because for the first time in the Patrick Mahomes era, the Chiefs are looking up at the Broncos in the standings, with a Christmas night rematch at Arrowhead still looming.
- Despite criticism of how they win, Denver Broncos lead the division with 'ugly' one-score wins, league-leading three-and-outs and penalties, while their plus-35 sack differential masks flaws.
