At first glance, both teams look relatively even in terms of health grades. In reality, the two AFC West teams are going opposite ways in terms of health. The Chiefs started with four straight victories but have endured a two game losing streak influenced by injury. The Broncos started 0-4 but have won their last two. The Chiefs however are starting to rebound from the injuries that contributed to their slump. The full return of Tyreek Hill (SC joint dislocation) and the expected return of Sammy Watkins (hamstring), along with a healthier Patrick Mahomes (ankle) will test a Broncos pass defense who are down their number one corner. On the other hand, the Broncos running game will test the injury ravaged Chiefs defensive line. Watch for big plays on offense to determine the outcome of this game.
