This is clearly the most difficult game left on the Broncos schedule and its against a team with an outstanding offensive line and a ton of speed – not a whole lot different than the Miami Dolphins in all honesty. They represent the biggest test for the Broncos and it is a must-win type game for Denver with the AFC playoff picture a literal traffic jam around those final two playoff spots.

The other caveat is that the Kansas City Chiefs have dropped three of their last four games and looked completely dysfunctional against the Buffalo Bills today. If the AFC West is wide open, the Broncos are just a game back and would likely need to finish the season with a win streak to steal the division crown away from their hated rival.
