The Broncos have also gone 0-5 SU in their last five trips to Arrowhead, and are just 1-4 ATS in their last five matchups with an AFC opponent. The Chiefs may be just 5-14-1 ATS in their last 20 games, but they are getting it together going 2-1 ATS in their last three games to go with a +4 turnover differential. Their defense has been kicking it up a notch as they are giving up just 294 yards per game in their last four games, while going 4-0 SU during that span. The Broncos just got a big divisional win and must now go to one of the loudest stadiums to face a hot team coming off a bye, and we’ve all heard of Andy Reid’s record coming off a bye week. In their last three meetings, the Chiefs have won by an average of 18 points per game. Roll with the Chiefs to get things done in prime time.
Pick: Kansas City Chiefs -9.5
