The Chiefs' momentum was stunted by the Bengals in Week 13, but Sunday's matchup with the Broncos should provide a much softer landing.
Denver (3-9) is averaging 13.8 points per game, one of the lowest marks in modern NFL history, while Kansas City (9-3) leads the league with 29.2 points per game.

Even a standout defense hasn't been enough to keep the Broncos in playoff contention, leaving more questions than answers for a franchise that committed hundreds of millions of dollars to Russell Wilson in the offseason.
It'll take a herculean effort from Denver's defense to stay within range of the Chiefs in Denver. Patrick Mahomes is capable of a big performance against any defense as he powers himself to a potential second MVP award, and Kansas City's diverse group of weapons has proven to be tough to contain.
The Chiefs were held in check by the Bengals in Week 13, but Cincinnati had a powerful offense on its side. From what we've seen through 12 games, the Broncos don't have anything remotely close to that.
There are playoff implications for the Chiefs heading into this game, as a win and a Chargers loss on Sunday night would clinch the AFC West for Kansas City.
