Broncos vs. Chiefs: Friday practice participation report

Broncos vs. Chiefs: Friday practice participation report

Unfortunately, it is looking like running back J.K. Dobbins may not be back any time soon and injured reserve is a possibility for him. For Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, he will obviously be out, but the long-term news is what we’re all waiting to find out. There will be five starters out for the Denver Broncos for this all-important AFC West showdown: Pat Surtain II, Alex Singleton, Jonah Elliss, and J.K. Dobbins. While Elliss isn’t technically a starter, he plays enough rotationally where I would consider his loss significant.

They will have wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. back...

Broncos RB JK Dobbins will be out for the foreseeable future

According to the NFL Network’s lead insider Ian Rapoport, Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins will be out for this Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs and for the “foreseeable future”. He adds that Dobbins is dealing with a significant foot injury and that a stint on the injured reserve is possible for the veteran running back.

Dobbins suffered a foot injury during the Broncos’ victory over the Raiders last week on Thursday Night Football. He blamed the Raiders for doing an illegal hip-drop tackle on him, which led to the injury, but it was not called by the refs during...

Vance Joseph gearing up defense to face formidable Chiefs offense

In order to be the best, you have to beat the best. That’s the primary goal for the Denver Broncos who take on the Kansas City Chiefs in their Week 11 matchup. Their longtime rival has won nine straight AFC West championships. But if the Broncos are able to secure a much-needed victory this weekend, that would go a long way toward ending the Chiefs’ nearly decade of dominance in the division.

Sitting at 8-2, the Broncos have a one game lead over the Los Angeles Chargers. Though they sport a multi-game lead over the Chiefs who enter this weekend’s...

Broncos vs Chiefs 5 questions: How big is this game for KC?

Broncos vs Chiefs 5 questions: How big is this game for KC?

Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are in a position they’re unaccustomed to being in.

The Chiefs are in third place in the AFC West at 5-4 and likely need to win on Sunday to keep their streak of division titles alive. Kansas City has won the AFC West nine straight times.

The good news for Patrick Mahomes and Co. is they’re coming off their bye. And when this team’s back is against the wall, it finds a way. FanDuel Sportsbook likes the Chiefs’ chances on Sunday. KC is a -3.5-point road favorite over the Denver Broncos. The total...

The Denver Broncos have reeled off seven wins in a row. After ten weeks, they find themselves atop the AFC West with an 8-2 record.

Let’s take a deeper look at Denver’s Week 11 opponent and what the Broncos need to accomplish to earn a huge divisional win.

Thursday Night Football Week 11: Jets at Patriots Open Thread

The AFC is going to get very crowded at the top here in the final seven weeks. The younger upstarts are all leading their respective divisions, while the old guard teams are quietly coming alive. The whole conference is setup for plenty of fireworks in the playoff seeding battles. Surely if the New England Patriots beat the New York Jets here, that will keep the Buffalo Bills on edge. It’s going to be a fun November-December for fans in the AFC.

Kickoff is set for Thursday, November 13, 2025 at 6:15 p.m. Mile High time at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough,...

Broncos vs. Chiefs: Thursday practice participation report

In my lengthy injury update yesterday, I noted how banged up the Denver Broncos were at a few key positions. The biggest lost last week was to running back J.K. dobbins. That will open the door for RJ Harvey to be a bit of a featured guy this week against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Denver did get Trent Sherfield back to full strength in practice. It’ll be interesting to see his usage with the return of Lil’Jordan Humphrey being signed to the active roster this week. John Franklin-Myers appears to have tweaked his back a bit and was limited in...

Broncos need RJ Harvey to have a breakout game vs. the Chiefs

Broncos need RJ Harvey to have a breakout game vs. the Chiefs

Broncos’ rookie running back RJ Harvey has had a productive rookie season thus far, but the presence of veteran JK Dobbins has held him back a little bit. Dobbins is among the league leaders in rushing and has been the lone consistent presence in the Denver Broncos’ offense this season; however, a foot injury suffered during last Thursday Night’s game vs. the Raiders is expected to sideline him for at least this Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs. This is a major loss for the struggling Broncos offense, but Harvey is the next man up, and Head Coach Sean Payton and...

Broncos vs Chiefs: 3 Keys to Victory

Denver’s seven-game winning streak faces its next challenge this Sunday at home as they take on the most annoying team in the league; the Kansas City Chiefs. But recent history has been good to the Denver Broncos as they’ve won two of the last three matchups and were mere inches away from winning in their first matchup from last season. Let’s just not talk about what happened outside of the last three games.

These two teams seem to be in different spots on their respective seasons, and they’re both strange to see. The Broncos are trying to prove to themselves...

Bo Nix and Broncos offense striving to find rhythm versus Chiefs

The Denver Broncos sport an impressive 8-2 record after the first ten games of the season. Winners of seven in a row, their success has earned them a lot of praise and spotlight on the airwaves. Though with praise often comes criticism and one player in particular has been under more scrutiny than others. That would be second-year signal caller Bo Nix.

After the Broncos’ 10-7 win on Thursday Night Football, Nix’s erratic play was magnified. Some analysts such as Ted Nguyen have suggested for Nix to be benched if his struggles continue. Others, such as Colin Cowherd, [floated the...
