The Denver Broncos have won nine consecutive games against division opponents<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Denver had its three-game winning streak snapped last time out, as it suffered a 34-31 overtime loss to the New England Patriots as one-point road underdogs in Week 12, while going OVER the betting total of 54.\u00a0 The Broncos are riding a nine-game divisional win streak dating to last season, which is important to consider when looking over the NFL betting lines.\u00a0 Since taking over as the team\u2019s starting running back in Week 12 of 2012, former Georgia star Knowshon Moreno ranks fifth in the NFL with 1,334 yards on the ground.\u00a0 Denver 14-8 SU and 13-9 ATS on the road the last two-plus seasons, with the OVER going 14-8 in that situation.<\/p>\n

Since former quarterback John Elway was hired in 2011 to fill a role in the front office, the Broncos have posted the fourth most wins in the league at 30.\u00a0 Denver\u2019s 429 points scored in 2013 marks the second-highest total in NFL history for a team\u2019s first 11 games.\u00a0 Veteran signal-caller Peyton Manning has thrown 36 touchdowns passes this season to represented the second most in league history through 11 games.<\/p>\n

Kansas City will look to snap a two-game losing streak, which includes a 41-38 setback to the San Diego Chargers as 3.5-point home favorites last Sunday, while losing the statistical battle for a third consecutive contest.\u00a0 \u201cWe need to go back and see what\u2019s up and correct it,\u201d commented Chiefs safety Eric Berry.\u00a0 The Chiefs have just two sacks in the last four games after piling up 35 through their first seven, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your pro football picks.\u00a0 Kansas City is 4-11 SU and 6-9 ATS versus division opponents the last two-plus seasons, with the UNDER going 10-4-1 in those 15 opportunities.<\/p>\n

The Chiefs hold a 56-51 all-time advantage over the Broncos in their 107 previous meetings, including a 24-16 mark when playing at Arrowhead Stadium.\u00a0 Kansas City is first in the league with a plus-13 turnover margin, which is far better than Denver\u2019s minus-three mark in that all-important category.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely play the total in this affair, as the UNDER is 5-0-1 in the last six meetings.<\/p>\n
