Denver Broncos NFL Week 11 Betting Lines

Gut-wrenching is the only adjective that comes to mind when trying to describe the Denver Broncos last second loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 10 betting action. The defending champs have dug down deep into their bag of tricks to pull out a number of games this season, and last week’s 16-14 triumph proved to be another after Will Lutz’s 35-yard chip shot attempt was blocked on the game’s final play from scrimmage. It’s a shame it occurred, but sticking close throughout is much different than seeing a win all the way through—especially against the defending two-time Super Bowl champs. Bo Nix churned out one of his best performances of the season playing to a 115.3 QB rating by way of getting the Chiefs stout pass defense for 215 yards and a pair of scoring strikes. The defense put forth another lunch pail showing holding Kansas City to 300 yards, sacking Patrick Mahomes four times, and forcing KC to kick field goals on 3 of 4 red zone penetrations. Denver just might’ve gone into Arrowhead and scored a huge outright win had it come up with just one takeaway! Its reward for incurring another tough loss is a third straight playoff caliber opponent in the form of the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11. Only this time, it comes in the Mile High City where the NFL betting market has taken a bullish stance on the team’s ability to claw over the breakeven mark both overall and as a host.

Though Denver has taken defeats each of the last two weeks, the Broncos odds of winning Super Bowl LIX fell to 80-1 from 100-1, while their odds of winning the AFC moved to 35-1 from 45-1. Oddsmakers seem to be impressed with the way the team handled its business against Kansas City! However, their odds to win the AFC West swelled to 250-1 from 40-1, while their adjusted in-season win total odds held firm at 8.5 with heavier vig still aligned with the under. Denver entered the year +450 dogs to make the playoffs, but the “Yes” now reads +185 from +175 with the “No” only -240 after initially hitting the board -650.

Denver Broncos Week 10 Recap

The Denver Broncos narrowly missed an upset in a 16-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, falling to 5-5 on the season. Rookie Bo Nix put forth his best showing of the season throwing for 215 yards and two touchdowns, connecting with Courtland Sutton for a 32-yard score and a 13-yard catch on third-and-6 in the final moments. That key play positioned Denver for a potential game-winning 35-yard field goal by Wil Lutz, but Chiefs linebacker Leo Chenal blocked the attempt as time expired, denying the Broncos a last-second victory and handing a division rival their first loss of the year. Denver’s defense pressured Patrick Mahomes throughout the game, particularly after Chiefs lineman Wanya Morris was replaced by rookie Kingsley Suamataia. This led to early success, as Nix orchestrated two long scoring drives and got the Broncos out to a 14-3 lead. Despite trailing, Mahomes responded, finishing with 266 yards, one touchdown, and a go-ahead drive culminating in a Harrison Butker field goal with less than six minutes remaining. Sean Payton praised his team’s fight, feeling they “outplayed” Kansas City but acknowledged the challenge of finishing against the defending Super Bowl champions. Denver’s tough loss emphasized both their potential and missed opportunities in a hard-fought divisional defeat that dropped it to 5-5 SU and 7-3 ATS for the season.

2024 Denver Broncos Schedule, Results & Record

Founded in 1960 as charter members of the American Football League, the Denver Broncos did not post a winning record until 1973. In the franchise's early years, the Broncos were known for their hideous brown and yellow uniforms that included vertical socks. Even when they went to orange and blue in the mid-1960s, the team was still bad and ran on a shoestring budget. The biggest claim to fame for the Broncos was their win over the Detroit Lions in a 1966 exhibition game. It was the first exhibition game between the AFL and NFL and a shocking upset.

Led by the Orange Crush defense, Denver finally made the playoffs and the first Super Bowl in 1977, losing to the Dallas Cowboys.

In 1983, the franchise's fortunes changed forever with the arrival of first round draft choice John Elway. Elway rewrote the Broncos record book as a Hall of Fame quarterback. Elway and the Broncos lost three Super Bowls before finally winning the Vince Lombardi Trophy in 1997 and 1998 before Elway retired to become a team executive.

Indianapolis Colts import Peyton Manning led the Broncos to two Super Bowls, including their most recent championship in 2015, before retiring after the game. Since then, the Broncos have struggled to find a credible quarterback—until the arrival of Russell Wilson in 2022, or so they thought. Now, it's "Bo Nix Season" in the Mile High City after upper management drafted the well-traveled collegiate star much earlier than experts had predicted in the 2024 NFL Draft.
