A battle for the AFC West lead will go down on Sunday between the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs. Denver became the first AFC West winner in a decade last year after the Chiefs had dominated the divisions for essentially an entire NFL generation. They are not going down without a fight and look to hold the upstart Broncos from winning back-to-back division titles.

Broncos vs. Chiefs score prediction
This is a must-have game for the Broncos. If they lose, its all but over in terms of catching the Chiefs in the AFC West. All tie-breakers would be in their adversaries hands. A win, though, makes the AFC West a wide open competition between them with Denver having the edge. Given this game is in Denver, I’m giving the edge to the crowd and the team here. Time for Bo Nix to silence those haters once more.
A heck of a lot more of you participated in our score predictions post this week, which is awesome. There were a few unrealistic ones, but mostly people took this exercise seriously. Our collective average final score came was Broncos 25, Chiefs 17. I’d take that. It’s not quite the score prediction I made, but close enough!
