·25 min·2 clips

The Broncos beat the Chiefs 38-0 at home to secure their first playoff spot in eight years.

The host, known as the Right Man, celebrates the Denver Broncos' 38-0 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs to clinch an AFC playoff spot. This episode is a detailed breakdown and reaction to the regular-season finale that ended the Broncos' postseason drought. The host watched the game with Adam from Cromwell Sports, a frequent podcast guest. The Broncos secured the 7th seed by shutting out a Chiefs team that started many backups, including quarterback Carson Wentz. Offensively, rookie quarterback Bo Nix completed 26 of 29 passes for 321 yards and four touchdowns. Key plays included a screen-pass touchdown to Marvin Mims and a 47-yard deep pass to Courtland Sutton that set up a scoring throw. A deflected pass was caught by Devon Vele for another highlight-reel touchdown. The defense recorded five sacks, with Nick Bonitto getting two, and applied constant pressure on Wentz. The Chiefs' only scoring chance was a missed field goal by Harrison Butker in the second quarter. Running back Audric Estime scored a late rushing touchdown, and many Broncos reserves played in the fourth quarter. The host presents a theory that the Chiefs may have used a "vanilla" game plan because a Denver win kept the Cincinnati Bengals out of the playoffs. Bo Nix broke a Peyton Manning franchise record with an 89.7% single-game completion percentage. This victory marked the first time an Andy Reid-coached Chiefs team has been shut out. The host notes the confident post-game locker room atmosphere, with players believing they can win as underdogs in Buffalo. Nix took a victory lap to high-five fans, and the team wore popular 1977-inspired throwback uniforms. Longtime radio voice Dave Logan planted the team flag pre-game, then called the first touchdown upon returning to the booth. The host believes the Broncos are "playing with house money" after exceeding preseason predictions of a 5-6 win season. He suggests the team's future is bright due to a young core and improving salary cap situation. The chemistry between Nix and Sutton, who surpassed 1,000 receiving yards, is highlighted as a key asset. The tone is overwhelmingly enthusiastic, celebratory, and conversational, blending play-by-play recap with fan-centric reaction. The style is informal and optimistic, featuring direct audience address and personal anecdotes from watching the game. Denver Broncos fans and anyone who enjoys detailed, passionate post-game analysis will love this episode. Listeners seeking objective, critical commentary on opponent quality or strategic shortcomings might want to skip it.
