Things to watch for this game:
Chiefs nine-time Pro Bowl TE Tony Gonzalez (10,011) needs just 50 yards to surpass TE Shannon Sharpe (10,060) for the most receiving yards by a tight end in NFL history. He needs just four more yards against the Broncos to become the first tight end in league annals to own 1,000 career receiving yards against three different franchises (Denver, Oakland and San Diego).
The Series
Kansas City holds a 52-44-0 (.542) all-time advantage over Denver in the 96 previous meetings between the two clubs (95 regular season, one postseason). The Chiefs own 52 wins against the Broncos and the Raiders, the club’s highest victory totals against any individual franchises. The Chiefs have won four of their last five meetings with the Broncos at Arrowhead with Denver claiming a 27-11 victory on its last trip to Kansas City (11/10/07). The Broncos swept the season series with the Chiefs a year ago for the first time since 2002. Denver also won a 41-7 decision at INCESTCO Field (12/9/07).
The Chiefs have won 13 of the last 18 regular season meetings between these two clubs at Arrowhead, including 10 of the last 13 contests. Kansas City hasn’t lost back-to-back regular season games to the Broncos at Arrowhead since dropping four straight from ‘76-79.
