The NFL Week 1 primetime games have been all about divisional rivalries, and that’s exactly how they close out. The Kansas City Chiefs always bring in a ton of attention, especially now with Patrick Mahomes’ status being monitored so closely. As for Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos, they shocked a ton of fans last season with their AFC Championship Game run. With the AFC West rivalries wrapping up the NFL Week 1 action, you’re going to want our best Broncos vs. Chiefs predictions for MNF.

Better yet, since you’re also going to want to make your Broncos vs. Chiefs picks more valuable, we’ve also explained how to claim a GUARANTEED 10x Underdog promo code bonus!

🔥 Broncos vs. Chiefs Predictions for Monday Night Football, NFL Week 1

Is Patrick Mahomes playing in Week 1? That’s the question booths Chiefs fans and fans that want to see them go 0-17 have been asking all offseason. Well, we’re finally going to see him on the field to close out the slate, and given that the Broncos vs. Chiefs odds have been favoring KC, that’s been assumed for quite some time now.

Interestingly enough, Denver has actually won three straight against their AFC West rivals. That said, the streak started with a meaningless Week 18 game, and when we made Broncos vs. Chiefs predictions on Christmas Day last year, the Patrick Mahomes injury had already happened. So, what’s the pick for Week 1 MNF?

Well, let’s also not forget that Bo Nix underwent offseason surgery for his ankle. Another major factor regarding Broncos vs. Chiefs picks is that KC now has the reigning Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker next to Mahomes in the backfield. So, let’s see how that all affects our best bet!

🏅 Broncos vs. Chiefs Expert Pick: Under 44.5 Points (Underdog Has Prediction Markets As Well)

Patrick Mahomes is playing in Week 1, AND he has Kenneth Walker beside him, yet we’re still taking the under? Absolutely, and after starting Week 1 with a Super Bowl rematch under 44.5 (Patriots vs. Seahawks was 13-10), we love this pick. Primetime game unders have been a trend for seemingly ever, and so have Broncos vs. Chiefs predictions.

Even when Denver enjoyed the aforementioned Week 18 blowout win of 38-0, it still stayed under. We’re not calling for that type of lopsided contest, but rather one more like the 20-13 Christmas Day game. The total for that one was a very low 37.5, and Broncos vs. Chiefs predictions made on the under STILL cashed!

History aside, right now we have two starting QBs seeing the field for the first time since surgeries on knees and ankles - does that really scream explosive offense? KC hasn’t been that for years now, and Denver made their surprising AFC Championship Game run last year thanks to an elite defense.

This really isn’t a pick that requires many underlying metrics or nuance, so we’re locking in the best bet from our Broncos vs. Chiefs predictions for MNF on under 44.5 points (make your predictions at Underdog).
