Chiefs vs. Broncos 2018 live stream: Time, TV schedule, and pick/prediction for 'Monday Night Football'
The Patrick Mahomes Show continues on Monday night!
The Kansas City Chiefs haven’t been great on defense going into their Monday Night Football matchup against the rival Denver Broncos, but Patrick Mahomes has had little issue keeping his team on top through three games this season. The Chiefs will travel to Mile High to face the Broncos beginning at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN (live streaming via WatchESPN).
Mahomes has thrown for 896 yards, 13 touchdowns and no interceptions in three games this season. He’s completed 66.7 percent of his passes, and has been assisted by a decent but not-great running game. Mahomes shredded the Chargers for four touchdowns, the Steelers for six touchdowns, and dumped three of them on the 49ers in their last outing.
The Broncos are 2-1 on the season, with one-score wins over the Seahawks and Raiders in their first two games, and a 27-14 loss at the hands of the Ravens in their last game. Monday’s game will be Denver’s third home game of the season, with the other two being wins.

Chiefs vs. Broncos news
- The biggest injury news for Denver is the loss of tight end Jake Butt, who was placed on injured reserve. The team signed Brian Parker, another tight end, off their practice squad in a corresponding move.
- Another issue for Denver is the thigh injury to Tramaine Brock, as he is listed as doubtful for Monday’s game. Adam Jones and Dymonte Thomas are also injures and listed as questionable.
- For the Chiefs, the biggest concern is the absence of Eric Berry, who has a bone spur that is digging into his Achilles, and he’s been inactive thus far this season. Berry is officially doubtful for Monday.
- Aside from Berry, the Chiefs are relatively healthy, however. Berry is the only player listed as doubtful on the final injury report, and Kansas City has nobody listed as questionable.
- If the Broncos are going to have any chance against the Chiefs, they absolutely have to uncork the offense early and often.
- Peep the five questions with the enemy post on Mile High Report, and then the one from Arrowhead Pride.
- Denver will be wearing the all-blue uniforms against the Chiefs.
- The Chiefs are rolling. The Broncos are not, but Monday’s game is a huge opportunity for them to make a statement.
- Case Keenum hasn’t been playing great for the Broncos (he’s not getting much help, to be fair), but head coach Vance Joseph isn’t worried about his interceptions thus far.
- Former Chiefs star Tony Gonzalez thinks Patrick Mahomes will break the single-season touchdown record.
