Chiefs Vs Broncos

The KC Chiefs swept the Denver Broncos last year for the first time since 2000 and both games were pretty exciting. That’s why I won’t be surprised in the least bit if the Chiefs and Broncos get assigned to a Thursday Night Football match-up.

    • The NFL is trying to make their Thursday night games more compelling and with the Chiefs and Broncos games being so competitive and hard hitting last year, this would be a no brainer for the league.

    This would also be a great selection for a Sunday Night Football game, as that’s where the two games took place last season. The great one in week 12 was actually flexed into Sunday Night Football, and the Chiefs ended up winning it in overtime.

    With the Broncos on the downfall and the Chiefs on the up and up, this has become an even better rivalry for Chiefs Kingdom and what better way to celebrate that than on primetime television next season?

    The only platform I don’t see these two airing on is Monday Night Football, as those match-ups tend to be pretty bad. I could see the Chiefs and the Dolphins or the Chiefs and the Jets being a Monday night game, since neither of those are compelling to the rest of America.
