Then again, I expect no less than two plays that we haven't seen before. He knows every DC will be glued to their TV, and he's going to give them stuff to prepare for after this week.
I'm going to say Keenum ends with 256, 1TD, 1 Rush TD, and two INT.
Mahomes gets 230 yds, 1 TD and 1 INT.
Chiefs win a close one at 21-18 (after a 2 pt conversion on the Broncos' second TD.) Broncos kick an onside, Chiefs recover, run out the clock.
That, or the Chiefs win 54-27.

Biggest challenge...
KC hasn't lost to Denver since 2015 ... Denver is a 5 win team from last year, quickly falling short of renewed expectations in week 3 and facing a KC team en fuego with the NFL's superbly talented new main attraction at QB. (see that's much better that solid)
Biggest challenge... phttt.
