The Chiefs suffered their first penalty of the night at the worst moment. The Broncos were lined up to go for it on 4th-and-2 from Kansas City’s 9-yard line. As Bo Nix called signals, Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones committed an offside penalty. It gave the Broncos a fresh set of downs and the chance to deliver the dagger into the hearts of Chiefs fans.
Nix found R.J. Harvey for the go-ahead score with 1:45 left in the game. It proved to be the game-winner.
The second-year Broncos quarterback finished 26-of-38 with 182 passing yards and a touchdown pass to Harvey. The lone interception led to a touchdown drive for the Chiefs.
Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun had 66 passing yards on three completions. He threw a touchdown pass to Brashard Smith.

“So it’s a two-way street on that, but, at the same time, man, I am, at this point in this year, I’m just trying to finish out and give Chiefs Kingdom everything I got and go out there and do it with some of that flair that you said I play with.”
He said he would lean on his brother, Jason, and Gonzalez for some added advice.
Kansas City was already eliminated from the playoffs and injuries hampered any chance of the team playing spoiler.
