Mahomes and the Chiefs survived a big scare and have improved to 9-0 this season, extending their winning streak to 15.

Everyone knew this was a trap game for Kansas City, and they needed a miracle to win it. The Broncos fans should be happy with how their team played, especially Nix, who went into Arrowhead Stadium and did what he was asked to do.
