How to watch Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos: Kickoff time, TV, betting odds

It’s not getting any better in Denver. At 1-4, the Broncos sit at the bottom of the AFC West. They entered this season, the first with Sean Payton as head coach, riding a seven-year streak without a playoff appearance and haven’t turned a winning record since 2016.

This season, there are problems on both sides of the ball, but rushing defense is statistically the league’s worst.

Denver surrendered 234 rushing yards (150 in the second half) in a 31-21 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday. Breece Hall, who logged 56 rushing yards against the Chiefs the previous week, motored for 177 against Denver.

The last four Broncos opponents have rushed for at least 170 yards.

“We haven’t done our end, period,” said safety Justin Simmons.

It doesn’t get easier for the Broncos, who take on an AFC-West leading Chiefs team that owns a 15-game winning streak in the series.
