Saturday's best bets
Kansas City Chiefs (-10, 44.5) at Denver Broncos, 4:30 p.m. ET on ESPN/ABC/ESPN+
Moody: The Chiefs lost last week to the Bengals, as Joe Burrow torched them for 446 yards passing and four touchdowns. Expect Kansas City to bounce back on both sides of the ball. The Chiefs rank third in total yards (397.3) and fourth in points per game (28.3). Meanwhile, the Broncos' offense is below average, ranking 19th in total yards (328.4) and 23rd in points scored (19.4). Denver, which hasn't defeated the Chiefs since Week 2 of the 2015 regular season, will have Drew Lock at quarterback rather than Teddy Bridgewater (concussion protocol). Though the Broncos' offense has struggled this season, their defense has performed well and is tied for eighth in overall defense (322 yards per game). Denver has only hit the over twice in eight home games this season. We might see a lower scoring game than many expect.
