The Chiefs amassed a season-low in total and passing yards. They also lost the time-of-possession battle. And yet they blew out the Denver Broncos 43-16 Sunday. How?

Their defense and special teams were terrific. The Chiefs got a touchdown in each phase. And Patrick Mahomes and the offense were good enough to come up with three touchdowns and three field goals.

The KC Star’s A-Team of Herbie Teope, Sam McDowell, Vahe Gregorian and Sam Mellinger joined host Blair Kerkhoff to break down the Chiefs’ 10th straight victory over the Broncos and sixth straight in Denver. Also, you’ll hear from one of the game’s stars, wide receiver Byron Pringle, the former Kansas State standout who returned a kickoff 102 yards for a touchdown.
