Chiefs and Broncos Set for Sunday AFC West Rivalry Matchup on Week 14

In the preseason, the betting on NFL matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos was circled on everyone’s calendars.  Now it is considered an expected massacre.  The Broncos are one of the NFL’s most disappointing teams.  Accordingly, no team has done less with higher expectations.  And NBC Sunday Night Football doesn’t care about the Broncos any more.  Even against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.  So bad is Denver that NBC flexed its muscles and chose the Chargers vs. Dolphins instead.  The Chiefs and Broncos will be featured on CBS in the late afternoon.

Chiefs vs. Broncos CashBet Wagering Analysis

KC usually means the massive best sportsbook online betting handle and TV ratings.  Regardless of their opponents.  Naturally, Kansas City is back as a top-tier favorite to win the AFC.  And then make a third Super Bowl in four years.  But as impressive as the Chiefs can be, their sloppy playground style is not Super Bowl-friendly.  Still, the Chiefs will draw most of the betting activity.  Denver has lost all credibility with gamblers in 2022.

Chiefs Stumble in Cincinnati

Last game, the Kansas City Chiefs lost 27-24 against the Cincinnati Bengals as 2.5-point road favorites.  The game went under the Betting on football total of 53.  Kansas City has a record of 9-3 straight up, 3-8-1 against the spread, and 5-7 over/under the total.  Kansas City ranks 1^st for total offense, 1^st for passing, 18^th for rushing, and 1^st for scoring.  Defensively they rank 16^th overall, 23^rd against the pass, 6^th against the rush, and 15^th for points allowed.  Also, Kansas City ranks 21^st for turnovers lost and 29^th for takeaways

Namely, Joe Burrow executed a masterful winning drive.  Burrow completed 6 of 7 passes during a 53-yard drive.  In brief, he finished with a go-ahead 8-yard touchdown to backup running back Chris Evans.  The Bengals’ defense held Kansas City scoreless from there, and Burrow closed out the victory over the Chiefs. 

To summarize, Burrow finished 25 of 31 with two touchdowns.  And he ran in for a 4-yard score to get the Bengals on the board in the first quarter.  In conclusion, he converted two third downs on passes to Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins to run out the clock.

KC QB Patrick Mahomes was 16 for 27 for 223 yards and a touchdown.  And then he ran for another score.  But the Chiefs fell short on their final possession when Joseph Ossai sacked Mahomes on third-and-3 from the Bengals’ 33.  Subsequently, Harrison Butker missed a 55-yard field goal wide right.

Mahomes led Kansas City on two methodical third-quarter drives that ended in touchdowns.  While the Bengals had to settle for a pair of field goals.  That gave the Chiefs a 24-20 lead until a turnover and subsequent Cincinnati TD.

Broncos and Bankrolls Busted in Lost Season

In this situation, the Chiefs are overpriced.  As mentioned earlier, Kansas City has been a poor NFL Betting odds value.
