Denver Broncos: 5 players who must step up vs. Chiefs

On a Thursday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, the 2019 Denver Broncos face their most critical juncture of the season.

Is this team really going to make a push in the AFC West?

A couple of weeks ago, that would have been an irrational idea. Now? Not so much.

As a matter of fact, the 2-4 Broncos have to be feeling pretty good heading into a short week against the 4-2 Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have lost two games in a row, and a Broncos win would close the gap between the two teams considerably, putting the Broncos at 3-4 and the Chiefs at 4-3 with an early tie-breaker in Denver’s favor.
