Getty Images The Chiefs are hosting the Jets on Sunday, in a game that matches the defending Super Bowl champions against the league’s only winless team. Unsurprisingly, the point spread is huge. But to see any NFL team favored by 21.5 points, as the Chiefs were when the betting lines opened...

Getty Images Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay will miss the rest of today’s game against the Chiefs with a concussion. The Broncos confirmed early in the third quarter that Lindsay would not return. Lindsay had been playing well before he suffered the injury, with nine carries for 79...

Getty Images For the second consecutive week, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes didn’t put up big numbers. And for the second consecutive week, he didn’t have to. Mahomes completed 15 of 23 passes for 200 yards, with one touchdown and no interceptions, as the Chiefs relied more on their...

Getty Images The Broncos officially activated cornerback A.J. Bouye and defensive ends Dre'Mont Jones and DeMarcus Walker from injured reserve to their active roster, the team announced Saturday. The Broncos released cornerback De’Vante Bausby in a corresponding roster move. Denver had two...

Getty Images Week Seven of the 2020 NFL season kicked off on Thursday with a win by the Eagles and it continues with 12 more games on Sunday, which means that the 24 teams in those games submitted their final injury reports of the week on Friday. The teams playing on Monday night won’t release...

Getty Images Chiefs right tackle Mitchell Schwartz was able to start last Monday’s game against the Bills despite a back injury, but he only played eight snaps before leaving the game. He won’t even get that many against the Broncos this weekend. Schwartz missed another practice on Friday and...

Getty Images Late October is too early for snow in most places, but it’s never too early for an NFL snow game. The excellent Dark Sky app currently shows a Denver kickoff temperature in the high teens, with snow beginning in the morning and seven to 11 inches of accumulation. That could make...

Getty Images After missing a game with strep throat, Broncos running back Melvin Gordon has returned to practice and exited the injury report. He’ll continue to play for the Broncos indefinitely, last week’s DUI arrest notwithstanding. Despite some initial belief that the Broncos may...

Getty Images Broncos quarterback Drew Lock grew up in Kansas City and grew up rooting for the Chiefs, so he’s well aware of how things have gone for his current team against his childhood favorites. The Broncos have lost nine straight games to the Chiefs, including a Week 15 start by Lock last...

Getty Images Rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire became the Chiefs’ feature back the day Damien Williams opted out of the 2020 season. He remained in that role until the Chiefs signed veteran Le'Veon Bell last week. Edwards-Helaire will lose snaps and touches to Bell. Bell, though, had a...

Getty Images The Broncos have done several rounds of testing since running backs coach Curtis Modkins tested positive for COVID-19 ahead of their Week Six game against the Patriots and they haven’t had any further issues. That remains the case on Wednesday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that...

Getty Images The Broncos got a confidence boost by beating the Patriots on the road. They’ll need something more than that to beat the Chiefs on Sunday, however, because six field goals won’t be good enough against Patrick Mahomes and company. “We’ve got to score touchdowns,” Fangio told PFT...

Getty Images Running back Le'Veon Bell met with the media on Wednesday for the first time since signing with the Chiefs and he called it a “relief” to join a team where he can “be happy and play football.” That was one of few references to his experience with the Jets, who released Bell this...

Getty Images The Chiefs have come up with a lot of creative ways of moving the ball since Patrick Mahomes became their quarterback, but their approach on Monday night against the Bills was short on bells and whistles. They ran the ball 46 times for a season-high 245 yards in the 26-17 victory...

Getty Images Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw his 90th and 91st career touchdown passes on Monday in his 37th career game, topping a new NFL record. Mahomes is the fastest quarterback ever to reach 91 touchdown passes, surpassing Dolphins Hall of Famer Dan Marino, who reached 90...

Getty Images The Chiefs ran the ball 46 times and threw it 26 times against the Bills last night. Yes, the Chiefs. The Andy Reid-coached Chiefs. So was the 245-yard meat grinder (20 more yards than they gained through the air), a fluke or a sign of things to come. Apparently, it depends on...

Getty Images With rookie Clyde Edwards-Helaire rushing for 161 yards on 26 carries Monday evening in Buffalo, it may not seem as though a big name running back was among the most pressing needs for the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs rushed for 245 yards on 46 carries in total in their 26-17...

Getty Images Quarterback Josh Allen’s play during the first four games of the season helped the Bills to a 4-0 record and led to discussions about the 2018 first-round pick making a leap forward in his third year as a professional. The last two games have seen Allen and the Bills come back to...

Getty Images The Bills will have cornerback Tre'Davious White and receiver John Brown this afternoon for their game against the Chiefs. Both were listed as questionable. White has a back injury that kept him out last week against the Titans, while Brown missed that game with a calf injury...

Getty Images On a rainy Monday afternoon in Buffalo, the Bills scored first against the Chiefs, thanks in part to a questionable spot by the officials. On a third-down run, Bills quarterback Josh Allen appeared to step out of bounds with the ball still half a yard from the line to gain. But...
