Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs Preview & Picks

Denver are backed to blowout Kansas City in the final game of Christmas Day.

This is a lot of points, but the Broncos are a team in form while the stone cold Chiefs are out of the race and down to their third string quarterback.

  • Denver Broncos have won 11 of their last 12 games
  • Kansas City have failed to cover in each of their last 7 games
  • Denver Broncos have covered in 8 of the previous 10 meetings
  • The Under has cashed in each of the previous 5 meetings

Head To Head

  • Kansas City Chiefs lead the all-time series 73-58
  • Denver Broncos won 22-19 when the two teams last met on November 16

Denver Broncos Form

Denver enter their penultimate game of the regular season having already secured playoff football at 12-3.

The Broncos stumbled early as they failed to build on an opening-day win, losing back-to-back games on the road.

They went on a tear after that though, sparking an 11-game win streak with a 28-3 victory over Cincinnati, which was followed by road wins over Philadelphia, 21-17, and the New York Jets, 13-11.

Denver then beat the New York Giants 33-32, Dallas 44-24, Houston 18-15, Las Vegas 10-7 and Kansas City 22-19 before the bye week.

The Broncos returned from the bye and beat Washington 27-26, Las Vegas 24-17 and Green Bay 34-26, before finally seeing their red-hot run end with a 34-20 loss to Jacksonville.

Kansas City Chiefs Form

Kansas City come into their home finale having now lost four consecutive games to fall out of the playoff race at 6-9.

The Chiefs opened with back-to-back defeats, but turned things around before the bye week as they won five of their next seven games to stay in the hunt at 5-4.

They made a losing return to action though, falling 22-19 in Denver, and they then failed to back up a 23-20 victory over Indianapolis as they lost four straight.

Kansas City were beaten 31-28 in Dallas, and followed that up with home losses to Houston, 20-10, and the Los Angeles Chargers, 16-13.

The Chiefs' skid then reached four games last weekend, as they were beaten 26-9 at Tennessee.

Verdict

This is a lot of points, but Denver's form and Kansas City's miserable record and injuries at QB offer reasons for confidence.

We are backing the Broncos to win and close in on the AFC West crown.
