Bragging rights and top spot in the AFC West are at stake at Mile High Stadium on Sunday, as division frontrunners Kansas City Chiefs head to Colorado to take on Denver Broncos.
The Chiefs found themselves at 5-0 after a perfect start to the NFL season but their winning run came to an end last time out with a 20-3 defeat at the home of the reigning champions, the Seattle Seahawks.
Another tough road game awaits head coach Andy Reid and his side, who have had little joy at Mile High Stadium in recent years.
