The Chiefs are still undefeated. The team survived a late scare and took down the rival Broncos 16-14 from Arrowhead Stadium. Denver lined up to kick the game-winning, 35-yard field goal with just one second left but linebacker Leo Chenal blocked it to end the game.
Patrick Mahomes completed 28-of-42 passes for 266 yards and a touchdown. Kareem Hunt had 100 yards of total offense while Travis Kelce caught eight balls for 64 yards and a score.
The Chiefs lead the AFC West at 9-and-0. In Week 11, they will travel to face the Buffalo Bills.
The Chiefs become the fifth reigning Super Bowl champion to win its first nine games, joining the 2011 Green Bay Packers (began 13-0), 1998 Denver Broncos (began 13-0), 2015 New England Patriots (began 10-0) and 1990 San Francisco 49ers (began 10-0).
