The Denver Broncos are gearing up for a critical matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, with their playoff hopes hanging in the balance. After two missed opportunities to secure a playoff spot, the Broncos are determined to break their eight-year drought. Despite facing the Chiefs' backups in key positions, head coach Andy Reid is motivated to prevent Denver from clinching a postseason berth.

Heading into the regular-season finale, the Broncos are fortunate to have a healthy roster, with no major injuries reported. While a few players are dealing with minor ailments, the team's overall health gives them an edge. The Chiefs, on the other hand, have confirmed several starters will be resting, including star players like Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, which could significantly impact the game.
