The Broncos will take on the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday at 11 a.m. MST.
MATCHUP
After leading the Broncos to their second straight victory with a 309-yard, three-touchdown outing against the Texans, Drew Lock will try to become the first Broncos quarterback to win at Arrowhead Stadium since Peyton Manning. The Broncos have lost eight straight games to Kansas City, dating back to 2015, and to get out of that skid, they'll need Lock to build on his first two starts as he faces a pass defense that ranks third in interceptions and ninth in yards allowed per pass attempt.
The last time these two teams met, the Broncos couldn't get anything going offensively after their first drive. Denver completed just 1-of-13 third down attempts and gave up nine sacks, including one on a fake punt. But it could be a different story with Lock under center. The Broncos' offensive line has given up just one sack in the past two weeks.
Defensively, the Broncos once again have a one-of-a-kind challenge in facing Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who's as dynamic a passer as they come. This season, the Chiefs' offense ranks fourth in passing yards per game, and Mahomes has thrown just three interceptions and been sacked only 13 times. Whether the Broncos can add to those totals may decide the outcome of the game.
