“That offensive line and K9, they took over the game. It went really well.”

The Broncos levelled the scores in the first quarter, but quarterback Bo Nix was sacked four times and intercepted once as the Chiefs pulled away.

Three-time Super Bowl winner Travis Kelce moved second on the NFL’s all-time list for most receiving yards by a tight end with a 59-yard play for the Chiefs.

Only former Chiefs star Tony Gonzalez (15,127) has more receiving yards in the position than Kelce (13,073).

Singer Taylor Swift, Kelce’s wife, and actor Tom Cruise watched the game together from the stands.

The Broncos won the AFC West title last season, ending the Chiefs’ run of nine successive divisional crowns.
