This moment will define the Broncos, but not in a way you might think.
Denver Broncos defensive end Zach Allen heads back to the locker room after warm-ups at Geha Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri on Nov. 10, 2024. KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It is getting hard to explain the incalculable pain brought on by the Kansas City Chiefs. The Broncos lost for the ninth straight time at Arrowhead Stadium, and the psychological toll threatens to shake the faith of not only the team but Broncos Country.
Because this team is. The Broncos possess more character than characters. It starts with offensive lineman Alex Forsyth. Kansas City’s Leo Chenal pancaked him on the final play,“I have to be stouter,” Forsyth said. “They had four guys on that side. But it didn’t surprise us. I have to be stouter.” Told that Forsyth would be singled out for this loss based on the video evidence, right tackle Mike McGlinchey took exception. The Broncos, after all, produced 10 yards on their first three drives of the second half.
Chiefs coach Andy Reid explained that the Chiefs took advantage of something they scouted in the Broncos’ field-goal operation. They overloaded one side and overwhelmed Forsyth. It was, if Reid is to be believed, a wrinkle the Broncos needed to iron out. While Forsyth remains in the bull’s-eye, it was Sutton who drew an offside penalty with 15 seconds remaining in the first half when Nix spiked the ball. It moved the Broncos out of realistic field goal range. Two players later, Sutton failed to haul in a pass that would have created a chip shot, even if there was no such thing on this Sunday.
