Chiefs Block Broncos' Potential Winner As Time Expires, Hold On For 16-14 Win To Remain Perfect

The Chiefs have won just about every way imaginable during a perfect 15-game run that dates to last season: Patrick Mahomes leading last-second touchdown drives, their defense making a stand, and Harrison Butker kicking game-winning field goals.

They added a walk-off block to the list against the Broncos on Sunday.

Leo Chenal was part of a red wave that crashed through the center of the Denver field goal unit, and the Chiefs linebacker got his hand on Wil Lutz's 35-yard attempt as time expired, allowing Kansas City to escape with a 16-14 victory .

"It's a complete shock, you know? Not much I can say about it," Chenal said. "I was really praying for something to happen. That moment is so heavy. There's a second on the clock, they're going to kick a field goal and you feel the weight of the moment."

Chiefs coach Andy Reid indicated they took advantage of something they had seen in the Broncos' field-goal operation.
