The Kansas City Chiefs (3-8) are hosting the Denver Broncos (7-4) Sunday, and their defense better be ready to stop the run.  Broncos’ quarterback Kyle Orton is playing through an ankle injury and the Broncos have a strong running game, so I expect them to run the ball a lot.  The Chiefs have not been good at stopping the run, so it doesn’t bode well for the Chiefs.  Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter will be splitting the carries for the Broncos, and both are capable of 100-yard days.

The Chiefs offense is going up against a pretty strong Broncos defense.  The Broncos held the Giants to 6 points, so I don’t see the Chiefs having too much success.  The Chiefs offense averages less than 200 yards passing and less than 100 yards rushing, and the Broncos defense gives up less than 300 total yards on average, so the Chiefs are not going to get much out of Matt Cassel and Jamaal Charles.  This could be a blowout.

FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:  Kansas City Chiefs 7, Denver Broncos 28
