Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs Prediction
It has been a nightmare of a season thus far for the Broncos, who enter play with a record of 1-4.
Sean Payton took over this Broncos team, and there was a lot of optimism entering the year that he could help fix this team.
That has not been the case for the first five weeks.
Russell Wilson has played pretty well despite the poor record. Wilson has thrown for 1,210 yards, 11 touchdowns, and two interceptions. Additionally, Wilson has rushed for 119 yards
Jaleel McLaughlin has been the leading rusher for Denver with 160 yards.
Rookie Marvin Mims leads the team in receiving yards with 246. Courtland Sutton leads the team with three receiving touchdowns.
Denver ranks dead last in football, allowing opponents 36.2 points per game.
The Chiefs will begin play in familiar territory, sitting atop the AFC West with a record of 4-1.
Kansas City has won four consecutive games.
Patrick Mahomes is off to a typical start, throwing for 1,287 yards, ten touchdowns, and four interceptions.
Isaiah Pacheco has been strong in the rushing game, racking up 325 yards and three touchdowns.
Travis Kelce missed Week 1 but led the team with 222 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
The Chiefs' defense ranks fifth in football, allowing opponents 16.0 points per game.
Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick
I know that nobody is excited to bet on the Broncos tonight, but it is the correct side.
Mahomes has not been good in his career covering double-digit spreads (10-13-1) ATS.
Denver is 1-4, but outside of the Miami game, they have been close in the other three.
They covered this number in four of their five games overall this season.
Wilson will be able to do enough to keep the Broncos close tonight.
