Up next for Kansas City are the Buffalo Bills (8-2). Later in the year, the Chiefs will face the Los Angeles Chargers (6-3), Houston Texans (6-4) and Pittsburgh Steelers (7-2). Sunday demonstrated how close KC is to its first loss — the Chiefs are a beatable team, and they will likely trip up soon.

Former Oregon Ducks quarterback Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos lead Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs 14-10 in the third quarter. The Broncos rookie had two touchdowns in the first half.

The Kansas City Chiefs are still undefeated. Somehow. KC looked at its first loss directly in the face before some special-teams heroics, as the Chiefs escaped with a 16-14 home victory over the Denver Broncos on the game’s last play Sunday afternoon.
