The Denver Broncos (1-4) and the Kansas City Chiefs (4-1) meet in Week 6 for Thursday Night Football at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET (Prime Video). Below, we look at Broncos vs. Chiefs odds from BetMGM Sportsbook. Also see: SportsbookWire’s NFL picks and predictions.

The Broncos suffered a 31-21 setback at home against the New York Jets, falling to 0-3 in the Mile High City this season, while also going 0-3 against the spread (ATS). Denver’s only win was its most recent road outing at Chicago in Week 4, a 31-28 victory as a 3-point favorite to push at most shops. The Over has cashed in 4 straight outings for Denver.

The Chiefs have rattled off 4 straight wins since dropping a 21-20 decision against the Detroit Lions on Thursday night in Week 1. Kansas city picked up a 27-20 win in Minnesota on Sunday, and it is now 3-1 ATS in the past 4 games, while cashing the Over in 2 of the past 3 contests.

One thing to watch, TE Travis Kelce left Sunday’s game against the Vikings to have his ankle checked in the locker room after a non-contact injury. While he returned to finish the game, it’s worth watching with the quick turnaround. Remember, he missed the Week 1 game after an injury in practice prior to the game.

Broncos at Chiefs head-to-head

The Chiefs swept the regular-season series in 2022, but the Broncos played Kansas City very tough. The meeting at Arrowhead on New Year’s Day went in favor of Kansas City by just a 27-24 score, with Denver easily covering a 13.5-point number. The Chiefs won 34-28 in Denver, too, while the Broncos covered as an 8.5-point underdog.

Kansas City has won 15 straight meetings in this series, while going 10-5 ATS during the span. Denver has covered 4 of the past 5 outings, however. The last time the Broncos topped the Chiefs was Sept. 17, 2015, at Arrowhead. QB Patrick Mahomes was celebrating his 20th birthday, and just beginning his sophomore year at Texas Tech.
