The Broncos are prepared to embark on their most important regular-season game in roughly a decade, and all attention is on Sean Payton. The Broncos' offense has been sputtering in recent weeks, and their matchup with the Chiefs has absurd playoff implications. Considering their record and the stakes, this is the Broncos' biggest game of the Sean Payton era.
The Broncos have become one of the better success stories in recent memory with their turnaround under Payton. Once a franchise that appeared to be heading to Jets-level of ineptitude, the Broncos brought in Payton and have become a premier franchise yet again.
