Cec and Mase break down everything that went wrong for the Broncos in their 31–10 loss to the Chiefs on Monday Night Football — and what it means moving forward. Denver couldn’t slow down Kenneth Walker, who ripped through the defense all night. Missed tackles, poor fits, and bad angles made it easy for Kansas City to control the game. So how big of a concern is this going forward, especially with more quality running backs on the schedule. On offense, the Broncos failed to run the ball consistently, even though JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey looked good on limited touches. Can Davis Webb get them involved earlier, or will Sean Payton have to step in and help with play‑calling. And then there’s Bo Nix, who struggled under constant pressure. Cec and Mase dig into how Denver can better protect him, what adjustments are realistic, and how the offense can stabilize before Week 2. 🔥 In this episode: How Denver’s run defense became a major concern Why Dobbins and Harvey need more early involvement Whether Sean Payton steps in on play‑calling How the Broncos can better protect Bo Nix What Monday night revealed about Denver’s identity Drop your take — what’s the biggest fix Denver needs before Week 2.
