The Broncos head into the season with a five-game losing streak against the Chiefs, and Arrowhead Stadium has been particularly unkind to Denver during that stretch. The Chiefs eliminated the Broncos from playoff contention with a 33-10 blowout win at the end of 2016, and things weren’t much better in 2017 when the Broncos turned the ball over five times.
The two teams will meet earlier in the year on “Monday Night Football,” but this game at the halfway point of the season could answer a lot of questions about the Broncos. And with a new-look roster that includes Patrick Mahomes II, the contest could also shed light on how the next chapter of this rivalry will develop.
