Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs

Drew Lock has been a God Send to the Denver Broncos, who actually finally look like they have found their quarterback of the future. This past weekend, he led his Broncos to a stunning victory over the Houston Texans, and has looked every bit the part through the first two starts of his NFL career.

Unfortunately for Lock and the Broncos, they will run into a buzzsaw this weekend, as they travel  to Arrowhead Stadium to take on Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. Sitting at 9-4, the Chiefs have already locked up the AFC West, but have an outside shot to get the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC.

The Chiefs should be able to force Lock into some mistakes, and come away with a comfortable victory in this one. Mahomes and company win their tenth game of the season, making it five straight season with double-digit wins. Lock plays well, but the Chiefs win.

Prediction: Chiefs 28, Broncos 21
