Denver Broncos – The Broncos slid by the depleted Chiefs by a score of 20-13. Bo Nix tossed and rushed for a touchdown to move Denver to 13-3 to stay in the hunt for the top seed in the AFC.

Kansas City Chiefs – With Chris Oladukan under center, the Chiefs mustered 139 total yards, but they only lost by seven to a good Denver squad. Kansas City moved to 6-10 on the season in what could be Travis Kelce’s final home game.

Las Vegas Raiders – As the Raiders are holding Maxx Crosby against his will from playing, they lose once again, this time to the Giants, 34-10.

Los Angeles Chargers – The Chargers lose to the Texans 20-16 to officially hand the AFC West to Denver. The Chargers still have a spot in the playoffs, but in the Wild Card.
