Week 13 – 12/5 @ Chiefs – 12:00 CT on CBS

Week 18 – 1/9 vs. Chiefs – 2:25 MT on CBS

The toughest games of the season is always against the Patrick Mahomes-led Kansas City Chiefs. This season, we can potentially be looking at two snow games for both matchups as well, as they are in the late parts of the season.

The Broncos lost both times last year and made the second game a really difficult one for the Chiefs’ offense. Fangio has the blueprint on how to contain this offense as he was holding them to field goals the whole first half in their second game last year.

It will be a different story this year as the Broncos are much improved and (hopefully by then) more healthier this year coming up. With average quarterback play, Denver can beat Kansas City.

We also can be potentially looking at some playoff scenarios this late in the season as the Broncos will hope to be in that conversation. These two games versus our rival can be the biggest games against them in some time.

With the full schedule being released, the Broncos will have some tough games coming their way. The season couldn’t come any quicker as this it will mark one of the most anticipating ones we’ll be waiting for. A healthy Broncos team can go far into the postseason and we hope they do.
