Fresh off their first defeat of the 2026 campaign, the Kansas City Chiefs have a massive opportunity to right the ship. AFC West play is back on the menu, with head coach Andy Reid's team traveling to Denver to face the Broncos.

Given that Kansas City already has a victory over its bitter rivals this campaign, Week 8 presents a chance to create legitimate separation in the standings. There are some obstacles that could make doing so a bit more difficult, but that's been the name of the game for the Chiefs in 2026. Can they find a way to escape the Mile High City with a win?

Here's everything you need to know and how you can follow along with the Chiefs as they square off against the Broncos.
