Pre-Game:
Whatever #Broncos QB Zac Dysert becomes, it's clear he puts in the work...always out hours before kickoff each game with QB coach Greg Knapp
— Jeff Legwold (@Jeff_Legwold) September 14, 2014
Ran into young Avalanche star Matt Duchene (@Matt9Duchene ) on the sideline pregame. Friendly guy. He was guest of young John Bowlen.

First Quarter:
And there's the deep shot on the first play -- playfake, Sanders from Manning, beats the maligned Marcus Cooper for 48 on a post route.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) September 14, 2014
Julius Thomas with his fourth TD of the season! #Broncos march straight down to make it 7-0.

A field-level view of @Julius_Thomas' quick-strike TD in the first quarter. #KCvsDEN http://t.co/jD57zvjJQI
— Denver Broncos (@Broncos) September 14, 2014
The Broncos score on their opening possession for the sixth consecutive regular-season game (4 TD, 2 FG) dating to last season.
— Erich Schubert (@schube13) September 14, 2014
With that TD, Julius Thomas has the most TD catches in DEN history of any #Broncos player in the first 2 games of the season.

Jamaal Charles to the locker room, per Tracy Wolfson. Pointing to the Achilles part of his left foot, of course.

Lerentee McCray folds before he makes it to the sideline.
— The Orange Page (@theorangepage) September 14, 2014
Chiefs field goal is good, 7-3 Broncos leading with 2:02 left in the first.
— The Orange Page (@theorangepage) September 14, 2014
Injury update for Broncos - LB Lerentee McCray is doubtful with a knee injury.
— Patrick Smyth (@psmyth12) September 14, 2014
#Broncos lead 7-3 after one quarter. Manning 4-for-4 for 71 yards on first drive. Offense sputtered since...
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) September 14, 2014
Second Quarter:
With McCray injured, the Broncos are shifting Irving to SLB & using S.Johnson at MLB when Miller gets a breather.

Kniles Davis undefended for a touchdown Chiefs 10, Broncos 7.

Whoever thought, "What could go wrong if we have Phil Simms doing two games a week with half the time to prepare?" is now finding out.
— SI_DougFarrar (@SI_DougFarrar) September 14, 2014
When in doubt, pick on Cooper.

TAMME!!! Five TD's for the Broncos tight ends

As @JimNantzCBS just pointed out, Denver's first deficit of the year lasted three minutes.
— The Orange Page (@theorangepage) September 14, 2014
Yes, Andy Reid is punting. Yes, he should be going for it.
— Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) September 14, 2014
Julius Thomas split wide, in the slot, red zone threat, quicker off the line of scrimmage, team first guy.... #PayTheMan #Broncos
— Cecil Lammey (@cecillammey) September 14, 2014
When Chiefs won that game vs. Jeff Tuel when got entirely, totally outplayed to go to 9-0, they used up all their karma for a calendar year
— Frank Schwab (@YahooSchwab) September 14, 2014
Ruling on the field stands. Well, I'll be damned. Looked like he had possession to me. Broncos catch a break, and KC is out of challenges.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) September 14, 2014
DT had no business catching that. Sick.

Peyton Manning if 15 of 19 for 191 yards, 3TDs, 0 INTs, and a near-perfect 148.1 passer rating. #Broncos

Von Miller with his first post-ACL tear sack, and it's halftime.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) September 14, 2014
Y'all enjoy halftime. I'll be making sacrifices to the "please don't let this game ruin my story" gods.

Third Quarter:
Not stopping teams on third down is becoming a DelRio signature
— Colin Daniels (@southstands303) September 14, 2014
This is the longest field goal drive I think I've ever seen.
— Lindsay Jones (@bylindsayhjones) September 14, 2014
And then he didn't even make it. #Chiefs have ball for 10 minutes to start third quarter. No points.

Just like that the 3rd quarter will end with two drives. 21-10, Broncos over the Chiefs
— The Orange Page (@theorangepage) September 14, 2014
Mercifully, we come to the end of the third quarter.That got messy. Broncos were penalized 6 times for 54 yards in the quarter.
— Andrew Mason (@MaseDenver) September 14, 2014
Fourth Quarter:
Davis scores... cutting into #Broncos lead... Will be 21-17 after PAT
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) September 14, 2014
The Chiefs are a really bad offense, injured and lacking in talent, there is no reason the Broncos shouldn't have held them to less than 10.

Emmanuel Sanders with the first 100-yard day (in the regular season) of his NFL career.

#Broncos can't finish. They'll settle for 3, making it a 7-point game with 3:28 minutes left.
— MileHighReport (@MileHighReport) September 14, 2014
At the end of the first half, Von Miller breaks through with a sack. At the end of the second, DeMarcus Ware. Strip, fumble, ballgame.

Tuck rule: alive and well

If that’s a pass, why not a penalty for ineligible receiver? First person it hit was an lineman.
