The Kansas City Chiefs are definitely making a big statement here and at the top of the league after the team punctuated its ninth straight win of the season after taking down the Denver Broncos in a 16-14 clutch showdown. There seems to be no slowing down for Kansas City with the way they are playing right now.

It was quite an off-game for the Kansas City Chiefs, but they made it look so easy and fun to watch with the way they have thrived on the big stage. Harrison Butker drilled a 20-yard field goal at 5:57 on the clock to retake the lead for the Chiefs, and they managed to defend for the rest of the game and hold on to their two-point lead.

At this point, it is hard to argue that the Chiefs may well be able to finish the season without a loss. They are taking this campaign one game at a time, and that seems to be working well for the team as they continue to rack up massive victories, showing the league that they have what it takes to win it all this time.

Not Slowing Down for the Chiefs

Kansas City was quite on the attack considering how well they are managing their offense from time to time. Patrick Mahomes finished with 28-42 of his passes for 266 yards and a touchdown, winning the showdown against Broncos’ Bo Nix, who finished in a decent fashion with 22 for 30 on passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns.

However, the game looked a lot closer than it did on paper. Nix and the Broncos were close to pulling off an upset against the Chiefs as Will Lutz nearly scored a field goal as time expired. But the Chiefs just can’t seem to lose, and they managed to block the potential game-winner that would have sent waves in the NFL world at this point in time.

Fans at the Arrowhead Stadium were celebrating like it was a playoff game. Kansas City has now won its ninth game trailing by seven points or more, and yet still holds a 9-0 record. They have also won 15 games in a row dating back to their Super Bowl run from last season, and that just says a lot about how the team is really putting up impressive performances on the big stage.

All Good Things Must Come to an End?

While the Chiefs’ perfect run continues, it cannot be denied that a lot of analysts and critics are putting up predictions as to when the team will lose eventually. There are still eight games left for the team, with the next one being against the Buffalo Bills, which is a promising note for many fans considering how big of a showdown this is expected to be.

The Broncos will also have another shot at beating the Chiefs this season, with a January 5 showdown scheduled – which would also be the last game of the 2024 campaign before the playoffs ensue. Should the Chiefs go undefeated from this point forward, it does seem that the Broncos will be the final chance for the Chiefs to have its winning streak and perfect season snapped heading into the playoffs.

At this point, the odds are looking up for the Chiefs, and there is a strong chance that the team can actually end up with a perfect season for the first time.
