The Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos will close out Sunday’s action in the NFL when these AFC West clubs go head-to-head during “Sunday Night Football.” This matchup could have a major influence on the current playoff picture in the AFC as the Chiefs, who are riding a four-game winning streak, are clinging to a slim one-game lead in the division.
Below, we’ll specifically be looking at the different betting angles that this matchup has in store for us.
The Chiefs opened as a 9.5-point favorite, and that held until Monday morning before it jumped up at half-point to Chiefs -10.
They’ve won three of their last four, including an impressive performance by the defense last week against Justin Herbert and the Chargers.
While both of these offenses have pieces that are capable of putting up some major points, each of these defenses has been extremely stout as of late.
Mahomes has been averaging an interception per game to this point in the season, so there would seem to be good value with the Over on his prop at +110.
The Kansas City secondary has been much improved over the last few weeks, which could give Bridgewater some problems. In their last three games, the Cheifs are allowing just 207.3 passing yards per game.
Hill is typically good for one rushing attempt per game this season, which typically comes in the form of a jet sweep.
