Kansas City Chiefs vs Denver Broncos Bet Builder, Tips, Predictions & Latest Odds
We have got another game to finish off Christmas Day as the Kansas City Chiefs are hosting the Denver Broncos.
This was meant to be a divisional cracker as both teams should be vying for the number one seed in the AFC.
However, the Chiefs have struggled this season and are already out of playoff contention. The Broncos, however, are in the number one seed position and will be looking to keep it.
Chiefs vs Broncos Bet Builder Tips
Here we have got a 13/2 Bet Builder for the big Christmas Day matchup, plus the latest odds from the top UK betting sites.
Denver Broncos -6.5 (Alternate handicap market)
The Denver Broncos have had a great season this year and are sitting top of the AFC with a 12-3 record. Despite their fine season they did get beaten last week at home to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
That felt like a surprise result considering they had just come off an 11-game win streak. The defence has looked great for most of the season and are ranked in the top ten against the run and the pass.
Now the Broncos must get back to winning ways by travelling to Kansas and taking on a beaten-up Chiefs team. Patrick Mahomes is out for the season with a torn ACL and then quarterback replacement Gardner Minshew tore his ACL last week.
Last week saw Chris Oladuken take over from Minshew and he is meant to be starting this game at the time of writing. The Chiefs only scored nine points last week and Oladuken struggled to get anything going.
The Chiefs have also had players go on injured reserve and have nothing to play for in this game. Expect the Broncos to get back to winning ways and win this one comfortably.
Over 36.5 total points (Total points market)
Although the Chiefs have quarterback problems, they did still get nine points last week. They should be able to get a similar amount here and contribute to the total.
The Bronco’s defence has let their opponents score a decent number of points over the last few weeks and the offence has been able to compete. Over 36.5 points it a low total and this game should go over.
Courtland Sutton to score a touchdown anytime
Courtland Sutton has had a great season so far and it doesn’t look like its going to change now. The veteran wide receiver has received 972 yards and seven touchdowns.
He has also got some great recent form scoring three touchdowns in the Broncos last four games. Expect him to get another here.
RJ Harvey to score a touchdown anytime
Harvey has had a solid rookie season with the Broncos and since JK Dobbins went down injured he has become the main running back on the team. He has rushed for 469 yards and had seven rushing touchdowns as well.
He is also a weapon in the passing game amassing 318 yards and four more touchdowns. He has had five touchdowns in the Broncos last four games and should get plenty of opportunities in this game to get another.
