It was not pretty, but Andy Reid and his Kansas City Chiefs got the job done on Thursday Night Football for their fifth straight win of the season.
The win was a 19-8 win over their divisional rival Denver Broncos. The loss for the Broncos dropped them to 1-5 on the season.
Let’s take a look at how the game went down and what games to watch for in NFL Week 6 action.
Kansas City Chiefs 19-8 over Denver Broncos
Russell Wilson finished the game with just 95 passing yards in the loss for Denver. The struggles continue for Sean Payton and his Broncos. Wilson also threw two interceptions in the game as well. The lone touchdown for the Broncos was late in the fourth quarter, as Courtland Sutton caught it in the back of the end zone.
For Kansas City, Travis Kelce and Isiah Pacheco were the key cogs. Pacheco rushed 16 times for 62 yards, while Kelce caught all nine of his targets for 124 yards in the game. Patrick Mahomes finished the game 30 of 40 for 306 yards and a score while also throwing an interception.
The Chiefs now have the Chargers, and the Broncos take on the Packers before these two teams meet up again, next time in Denver.

London Part 3
The National Football League is once again in London for NFL Week 6. This is the third straight week of games in London, with Jacksonville winning both the first two.
This time it’s the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans. Both teams are in need of wins, as they are in dogfights for their division. The Ravens are coming off the loss at Pittsburgh, while the Titans are 2-3 following their loss at the Colts in Week 5.
This matchup should be fun, with Derrick Henry guiding the Tennessee offense on the ground and Baltimore showcasing their quarterback Lamar Jackson.
Looking to Stay Unbeaten on the Road
Both the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles are going to go into NFL Week 6 without a loss. The 49ers have a test on the road at the Cleveland Browns. The 49ers are coming off the blowout win over Dallas on Sunday Night Football.
Cleveland will likely be the best defensive team that the 49ers have faced this season. Cleveland is 2-2 on the season, so they would love to spring their season with a Week 6 win over San Francisco. For Philadelphia, they are on the road as well.
The Eagles go to Meadowlands to take on the New York Jets. Zach Wilson and the Jets are coming off the win over Denver and are seeking to get back to .500 on the season.

Two Surprising Teams in Tampa
The Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers both come into their Week 6 games with just one loss each, and both leading their division.
The Lions continue to impress following their win last week over the Carolina Panthers. David Montgomery and his ground game have been tough to stop for Detroit. For Tampa Bay, Baker Mayfield has led the Buccaneers to win three out of four to start the season.
The Buccaneers have taken their bye, so they are going to have a long haul from here, but at home, this is a game they would certainly like to get.
Sunday Night Massacre?
The Sunday Night Football game does not appear to be one of the more competitive games we will see this season. The Buffalo Bills host the New York Giants.
While both teams are coming off a loss, the views and vibes for both teams are vastly different. The Bills still feel they are contenders at the top of the AFC, while the Giants are figuring many things out.
Daniel Jones, Saquan Barkley, and Darren Waller are all questionable to play. New York has been playing from behind all season and certainly will have a tough time if they do that in this affair on Sunday Night.

Beautiful Monday Night in Los Angeles
SoFi Stadium will be the host of the Monday Night Football game in NFL Week 6. The Dallas Cowboys are at the Los Angeles Chargers. Two NFL teams that have been all over the map. Austin Eckler is expected back for the Chargers, which would be a huge boost.
The Chargers are 2-2 and were starting to play a little more consistent before their Week 5 bye. Dallas is coming off the blowout loss in San Francisco. Dak Prescott and the offense were bad in that game, but allowing 42 points is never a good recipe. A second straight primetime loss would have folks up in arms in Dallas.
