The Broncos hired Vic Fangio to bring discipline to the team, and to avoid what Fangio calls “Death by Inches”. Fangio’s phrase “Death By Inches” will face its biggest test on Sunday against the Chiefs.
The Broncos know the pressure is on to compete against the Chiefs. The team has to be focused going into Sunday, and that all starts with Vic Fangio.
Fangio has shown that he can get his team dialed in for big games, but everyone will need to be ready. The Special Teams unit has been rough, to say the least, with turnovers, penalties, and game-changing missed opportunities.
The Broncos will need a clean game from their special teams if they want to steal a win against the Chiefs.
So, do the Broncos have a shot at pulling the Upset?
It’s always hard to predict Divisional games. Anything can happen.
The Broncos are coming into Sunday with confidence, as they’ve won back to back games. They will need all the confidence they can get. They will also need all the breaks they can get.
Overall, I think this is Denver’s best chance to beat the Chiefs since 2018 when the Case Keenum-led Broncos nearly knocked off the Chiefs.
Final prediction: Broncos-31 Chiefs-28
