Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos: When, where, odds, how to watch, series history

Two AFC West rivals — the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos — will meet Sunday for the first time this season. And both are coming off bitter defeats.

The Chiefs lost a fourth-quarter lead at Cincinnati and fell to the Bengals 27-24. The outcome dropped the Chiefs’ record to 9-3, matching the Buffalo Bills for the top record in the AFC. But in the playoff picture, Buffalo holds the tiebreaker because of the Bills’ victory over the Chiefs earlier this season.

The Broncos (3-9) fell 10-9 at Baltimore. The Ravens scored the go-ahead touchdown with 28 seconds remaining and withstood a 63-yard field-goal attempt by Brandon McManus, which fell short, on the final play.

Denver is struggling under first-year head coach Nathaniel Hackett and free-agent quarterback Russell Wilson, with losses in eight of their last nine games.

Meanwhile, the Chiefs will be looking to extend a 13-game winning streak in this series.

A final note: This game was originally scheduled for prime-time exposure on Sunday Night Football. But with the Broncos playing so poorly, it was recently flexed to an afternoon kickoff.
