WagerTalk NFL handicapper Andy Lang offers his Kansas City Chiefs vs Denver Broncos NFL Week 13 Sunday Night Football betting preview. At the time of posting, the Chiefs are a 9.5-point home favorite over the visiting Broncos with the total sitting at 47 points.<\/p>\n
Stay on top of the latest NFL<\/a> updates direct from Las Vegas!<\/em><\/p>\n It\u2019s hard to believe, but this game between the Chiefs and Broncos is for the lead in the AFC West as Kansas City is 7-4 and Denver is 6-5 and this is the first meeting of the year between them. If Denver wins, the two teams would be tied with Denver owning the tie breaker, and if the Chiefs emerge as winners they would remain on top and ahead of Denver, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.<\/p>\n This game is a Sunday night game in Arrowhead stadium with Kansas City coming off a bye week, and Denver coming off of three wins in their last four games so this game should be intense, electric and a lot of fun for the fans. But can it be good from a wagering perspective? I think so\u2026<\/p>\n The Chiefs are winners of four straight after a slow start to the season, and I may be giving away my official pick early, but I\u2019m not that impressed with this four game win streak, and there are some things that the general public may not take into account before betting this game.<\/p>\n The first win in this four game win streak was against the Giants when the Chiefs needed a late field goal to pull ahead. Next they squeaked out a 13-7 win against a Packers team lead by Jordan Love, followed up by a 41-14 domination of the Raiders, but this game was coming off the Henry Ruggs situation, and the Raiders looked completely disinterested from opening kick. Last game was a 19-9 win against Dallas in a game Amari Cooper was out, CeeDee Lamb left early and Zeke hurt his ankle. Combine those four wins with wins over Washington, Philly and Cleveland and I\u2019m just not that impressed with their wins so far.<\/p>\n Denver is somehow 6-5 on the year despite their lack of passing attack, but they\u2019re doing it with a two headed monster running attack, and with tough defense. For them, it\u2019s been pretty simple\u2026every win they\u2019ve had this season they\u2019ve held the opponent to 13 points or less, and every loss they\u2019ve had this season they\u2019ve allowed 17 points or more. Bridgewater is not winning anyone\u2019s fantasy football league, but he\u2019s been efficient and hasn\u2019t turned the ball over. He\u2019s thrown for under 250 yards in five straight games, but hasn\u2019t thrown an interception in four straight.<\/p>\n I also see a very clear pattern with them the last three games. Two of those games were wins, and in those games they rushed the ball for 33 and 41 times, and in the loss they rushed the ball 18 times. They need to rush the ball in order to have success as they aren\u2019t built for shootouts.<\/p>\n I like what I\u2019ve seen from the Chiefs defense recently as they\u2019ve gotten healthier and Chris Jones has been incredible in this last run. They\u2019ve only allowed 47 points total in this four game streak, and their success in slowing down the Denver rush offense might decide this game. I don\u2019t think they\u2019ll be able to completely shut down the Denver rush attack, and that\u2019s why I like Denver to cover this game.<\/p>\n Teams have had success this season slowing down the Chiefs by doubling Tyreek Hill over the top, and containing Kelce and Denver has only allowed 44 catches to tight ends this season which is 7th best in the NFL. I get a dominant rushing attack, a quarterback not turning the ball over, and a defense that matches up nicely against the strength of the opponent\u2026and I get 10 points? I\u2019ll take it as I see a lower scoring game in a one possession game that will be decided in the 4th quarter.<\/p>\n Official Play: Broncos +10, smaller play on +9.5 but still very much worth a play.<\/p>\n \ud83c\udfc8 The Eagles dropped Game 1 of their New York back-to-back, losing to the Giants last week. Can they rebound with a win over the Jets on Sunday? @McInnispicks<\/a> @BumpSports<\/a> and @DrewMartinBets<\/a> offer their thoughts.#TakeFlight<\/a> | #FlyEaglesFly<\/a>https:\/\/t.co\/ISabrhVil8<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 WagerTalk (@WagerTalk) November 30, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nKansas City Chiefs vs Denver Broncos Predictions<\/h3>\n
