With this win we guarantee to have any 1-on-1 tie breaker with the Patriots. We have also officially ended the Chiefs near decade strangle hold on the division that has lasted since the 2016-2017 season.
Next week we have several clinching scenarios. In a perfect scenario we are still 2 weeks away from clinching the 1 seed, so we shouldn’t worry about that for now.
In order to clinch the AFC West title for the first time in my adult life, we need a Chargers loss against Philly this week and next week in Arrowhead against KC + a Broncos win over the Packers next week.
There are ways to clinch playoffs next week, but we need losses from teams that play this week and next week. I don’t have time to get into the gritty details of a clinch next week, but I am sure someone within the next week will.

I love this mf team
*NIX
Well let’s not get ahead of ourselves still need to win out or tie NE. Next 2 or 3 games will be tough unless NE loses them both as well one of theirs are against the bills so maybe 1 more loss for them. If we can win next 2 and they drop to Bill and Ravens then yeah we can go afk at Christmas till the playoffs
Tell me if before the season you thought we’d be the first seed in the AFC with the best record in the NFL heading into week 15. Then tell me why you’re lying
Ours to lose now, with the tie breaker.
So do we have to keep on winning to keep the spot ? Or can lose we lose some games and still be on top?
I could be wrong, but this win does not officially end the Chef’s ability to take the division. Texans win tonight and then it’s official.
Hosting a playoff game yeee boi
I feel pretty good about it. Realistically we’ll drop a game or two going down the stretch with our schedule but I have a feeling the Pats will drop 2 more between Buffalo, Baltimore and Miami
Feels so nice to be in this position now.
Idk about y’all but this is pretty sick.
Such a fun season so far! I truly believe we’re just heating up!!!
Go Broncos!!!
It’s a good time to be a Broncos fan.
The tiebreaker was much needed, now we need to keep it that way
Man big props to the new owners and to Sean Payton for turning this ship around with a quickness. I’m impressed and I honestly thought it would take longer. I hope we get a chance at number 4 this year!!
I love it!!!!
We have a tough stretch coming up. Hopefully we can make it through it.
Funny and here I thought I had the top seed out there

This isn’t official or clinched. One more Broncos win or one Cheifs loss eliminates them from the division title, but it’s not there yet.
I had a premonition of us benching our starters against the Chargers next year because we have the 1st seed already locked up. Unfortunately it helps the Chargers clinch the 7 seed though, coming full circle from last year’s playoffs.
