The Denver Broncos are underdogs against the Kansas City Chiefs this week but should they be? The Chiefs are hot we all get that. The Chiefs are essentially the 2nd best team in the league next to the Rams so do the Broncos actually stand a chance against them at Kansas City? I think so.

The Broncos defense is starting to come together. That means something especially because the Broncos defense on a bad day is BETTER than the Chiefs defense is right now on a good day. The Broncos defense has the ability to shut down Pat Mahomes, shut down Kareem Hunt, shut down Travis Kelce and shut down Tyreek Hill. Yes, Denver’s defense is that good. Starting with Von Miller and Bradley Chubb bringing the heat and Denver’s secondary handling coverage.

Kansas City should be sweating right now. That’s right, they should be worried, not Denver. Denver has nothing to lose and when you have nothing to lose that makes you that more dangerous!

The #Chiefs have won six in a row over Denver dating back to 2015, which is their longest streak in over 40 years.

Kansas City will look for a seventh-straight victory on Sunday.https://t.co/hPkDQTPbGO

Break for the Broncos. The Chiefs' Justin Houston has 11.0 sacks in his last six games against Denver but is doubtful to play Sunday. Broncos still better block Dee Ford, who leads all NFL edge rushers with 37 hurries, according to Pro Football Focus. #9sports

Chiefs fans are probably expecting them to blowout the Broncos but I don’t think so. This is where Denver makes a stand, this is where the Broncos make a stand and show that they are not going to just sit down and watch another team have their way. This is Denver’s time, this is where the tide in the AFC West shifts…towards Denver.
