The first major game of the NFL schedule release is officially out: the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football to close Week 1. What does this tell us about how the league views the AFC West heading into 2026?

Meanwhile, Bo Nix is also expected to be fully healthy after his late-season ankle injury, setting up one of the biggest quarterback matchups of opening weekend.
