Pre-Game
Some Chiefs wearing T-shirts under their uniforms tonight to honor Eric Berry, who actually asked his coaches if he could play vs. Broncos.

It's cold in KC, but we'll all be warmed by the "Peyton weather" hot takes. #SNF

T.J. Ward joins the usual captains. The Broncos win the coin toss by calling tails and defer their option

First Quarter
PARTY ON PEY PARTY ON BARTH
— Carol Of The Spills (@IAmSpilly) December 1, 2014
Going after Chris Harris deep (especially targeting Donnie Avery) is not wise. #Chiefs need a better game plan
— Cecil Lammey (@cecillammey) December 1, 2014
That was the Broncos' 41st 3-and-out defensively, and that total leads the NFL this season.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
#Broncos score on opening drive.. Terrific catch and throw... DT has toyed with defenders since opening 3-game slump.... 7-0
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) December 1, 2014
With that TD, Broncos QB Peyton Manning has now thrown a TD pass in 51 consecutive games, the 3rd-longest streak in NFL history.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
Great job of ball tracking and concentration by Demaryius Thomas. I think that looked a lot easier than it actually was.
— Frank Schwab (@YahooSchwab) December 1, 2014
Connor Barth, Mall Cop NAILS THE XP!
— Colin Daniels (@southstands303) December 1, 2014
SACK! #Broncos dominating early! T.J. Ward blitz floors Alex Smith on 3rd down, forcing a #Chiefs punt.
— MileHighReport (@MileHighReport) December 1, 2014
Well Broncos fans, at least so far, offense, defense and ST is contributing, full team effort. Looks beautiful!
— Eatin' Greedy (@Bronco_Mike251) December 1, 2014
Tamme hurt on that play.
— Jeff Legwold (@Jeff_Legwold) December 1, 2014
TOUCHDOWN -- C.J. Anderson on third-and-11, cuts inside of Justin Houston and takes off. Broncos found the coverage mismatch.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) December 1, 2014

SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

This cold weather and the heavy gusts of wind are clearly affecting Mr. Manning limiting him to just 2 TD's in 1st. pic.twitter.com/Uo7kJMU8gp

This has just been an unbelievable, dominant quarter of football.

Second Quarter
The Chiefs forced a punt. I repeat: The Chiefs forced a punt.
— Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) December 1, 2014
Whoa. Fake punt from Foxy??? Is this real life?????
— Vic Lombardi (@VicLombardi) December 1, 2014
David Bruton on direct snap. First down.
— Mike Klis (@MikeKlis) December 1, 2014
Andy Reid getting out-coached in every facet.
— mike freeman (@mikefreemanNFL) December 1, 2014
The call of John Fox's career, that fake punt.
— JL Bigby (@ProsFB) December 1, 2014
Go BRUT!!!!!
— Nate Irving (@JusSayNate) December 1, 2014
Broncos 2-2 on fourth down tonight. C.J. Anderson 1-1 on trucks.
— Jon Heath (@JonHeathNFL) December 1, 2014
is that bad http://t.co/xILz1TaeFM pic.twitter.com/GEuQYqx7nt
— SB Nation (@SBNation) December 1, 2014
I joke a lot, but this is incredible.
— Colin Daniels (@southstands303) December 1, 2014
C.J. Anderson might be John Fox's favorite player ever. Gets to run it all the time, even on fourth down, and is the ultimate Next Man Up.

This is the kind of game plan that wins in the playoffs.
— mark schlereth (@markschlereth) December 1, 2014
It's okay, DT, we know you just wanted us to get our first look at Barth.
— Jon Heath (@JonHeathNFL) December 1, 2014
Broncos K Connor Barth makes 22-yd. FG attempt for his 1st field goal since 12/30/12 at Atlanta.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
With 6 minutes left in half, #Chiefs have net positive yardage.
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) December 1, 2014
Chiefs get on the board with some big plays on that drive. Fasano's leaping TD will make it 17-7, Broncos.
— Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) December 1, 2014
#Broncos Barth with 24-yd FG makes it 20-7 with 16 seconds remaining in the half.
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) December 1, 2014
Third Quarter
#Broncos D. Thomas topped 1,200 rec yards & 10 TDs on the year, 1 of just 6 players in NFL history to reach that in 3 consecutive seasons.
— Michelle Tuckner (@MichelleTuckner) December 1, 2014
Manning stripped from behind by Houston, who got around Vasquez ... Chiefs recover.

That's all Pot Roast right there. Needed a takeaway.
— Vic Lombardi (@VicLombardi) December 1, 2014
Right place at the right time: DeMarcus Ware scooped up an interception off a deflection at the line. Broncos have it at the 13 now.
— SI NFL (@si_nfl) December 1, 2014
Broncos K Connor Barth w/his 16th career game with at least three FGs.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
Broncos letting the Chiefs hang around. After going 5-of-5 on 3rd downs to start the game, the Broncos are 2-of-9 since.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) December 1, 2014
Another third down sack, this time from DeMarcus Ware. He just ended two straight drives. Chiefs punt it away.
— SI NFL (@si_nfl) December 1, 2014
The Chiefs forced a punt but the Broncos will keep the ball after the punt deflected off a Chief. Huge, huge break.
— SI NFL (@si_nfl) December 1, 2014
Colquitts crappy punts finally pay some dividends.
— Ryan (@5280Orange) December 1, 2014
Fourth Quarter
It's the 4th quarter. The Kansas City Chiefs have 66 yards of offense. The game is IN Kansas City.
— Vic Lombardi (@VicLombardi) December 1, 2014
Guess what? Complete teams can win games too. Doesn't have to always be on #18
— Eatin' Greedy (@Bronco_Mike251) December 1, 2014
New drinking game. Each time Manning overthrows Emmanuel Sanders, drink up.
— Kirk Michael Davis (@Kaptain_Kirk62) December 1, 2014
Conner Barth w/his 4th FG tonight, tying for 2nd most by a Bronco in team history playing at Arrowhead Stadium.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
Peyton is normally a 65% passer. At 50% tonight. But again, he doesn't have to shine for Broncos to win. This is a good thing.
— Vic Lombardi (@VicLombardi) December 1, 2014
For the second time tonight, the Chiefs have put together a competent touchdown drive seemingly out of nowhere. Now time to go for 2.
— SI NFL (@si_nfl) December 1, 2014
Touchdown Chiefs: Smith to Charles. 2 point conversion is no good. #Broncos lead is 26-16.
— ESPN Denver (@ESPN_Denver) December 1, 2014
Broncos RB @CjAndersonRB9 w/his 2nd consecutive 150-yd rushing game. 1st Bronco to accomplish that feat since 2004 (Reuben Droughns).
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
K Connor Barth has tied the Broncos franchise single-game record with his fifth field goal tonight.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) December 1, 2014
Connor Barth good from 37 yards -- 5-of-5, 17 of the Broncos' 29 points.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) December 1, 2014
Barth Maul. CC: @hochman
— Colin Daniels (@southstands303) December 1, 2014
Looks like Denver may hold an opponent under 17 for the first time this season. Only team yet to do so.

FUMBLE -- Broncos ball. Donnie Avery loses the ball on a hit from Rahim Moore and Bradley Roby recovers.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) December 1, 2014
If I told you the Broncos win by double-digits at Arrowhead with 200-plus rushing and you still complain, I can't help you.
— Vic Lombardi (@VicLombardi) December 1, 2014
It has to be asked: When Julius Thomas returns, should Virgil Green return to bench? After Broncos just rushed for 201 and 206-plus?
— Mike Klis (@MikeKlis) December 1, 2014
@TheCauldron @AndyGlockner The best stat is Andy Dalton has more receiving TD's than Chiefs WR's.
— Carrington Harrison (@cdotharrison) December 1, 2014
Victory formation for the Broncos. This one is over.
— SI NFL (@si_nfl) December 1, 2014
Broncos force 3 turnovers, ride early lead to 29-16 win over Chiefs. Denver is now 6-0 vs KC with Peyton Manning. pic.twitter.com/2NvRDAW9Ro
