The Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs are in line for what could be the biggest game in Denver in a decade. Denver has the lead in the AFC West and a victory over the Chiefs to kick them back to .500 could be enough to put most of the rest of the season on ice in the division race for the perennial Super Bowl Champions.

The stakes of the game for arguably the entire conference are as high as they've been in years. However, fantasy football managers are likely to be interested in only one thing from the shadows: picking the correct players to reach their own personal goals. Here's a guide to help do that.

J.K. Dobbins was one of the best running back options Denver had enjoyed since winning the Super Bowl in 2015. However, Dobbins' injury troubles returned, placing the running back room in the hands of rookie running back RJ Harvey. If you have the back, he is a must-start, as he has looked explosive at times as the second string.

Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin are likely to see their fair share of targets as well.

The Kansas City Chiefs are in luck with Patrick Surtain II out, leaving Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy is a great spot to deliver big days. Isiah Pacheco is out, according to the official Chiefs injury report, so if you need a one-week filler, you could do worse than the back that helped kick off the Patrick Mahomes era.

Travis Kelce is likely to get a touchdown spike at some point, and the Chiefs' defense could have a decent day as well. Denver's offense has struggled in recent weeks, and the Chiefs' defense has been trending up in recent weeks.

Must Starts

  • RJ Harvey
  • Courtland Sutton
  • Troy Franklin
  • Kareem Hunt
  • Rashee Rice
  • Xavier Worthy
  • Travis Kelce
  • Chiefs D/ST

Denver and Kansas City will deliver touchdowns to some players, but not everyone. One player to be avoided is Bo Nix, who has struggled against good defenses this season. Evan Engram has been his go-to fourth-down must-have guy, but it hasn't translated to big games most of the time. As such, avoid him if possible.

Ad

Rookie Pat Bryant has had a better second month than his first month, but it hasn't translated to a big game just yet. With the stage as big as it has been in Sean Payton's career in Denver, expect the veterans to see more targets than the rookie.

The Broncos' defense is down Patrick Surtain II, so Denver's defense could be uncharacteristically mortal this week. If you have a better option, take it.

Ad

Lastly, Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster have been names to avoid this season in most games, and the pattern will hold in Week 11.

Must Sits

  • Bo Nix
  • Evan Engram
  • Hollywood Brown
  • Broncos D/ST
  • JuJu Smith-Schuster
  • Marvin Mims Jr.
  • Pat Bryant
