The Denver Broncos have matched the worst six-game start in their history. Their 16th consecutive loss to the Kansas City Chiefs dropped them to 1-5 under first-year coach Sean Payton, who never lost five of his first six games during his 15 seasons as head coach of the New Orleans Saints.

Russell Wilson threw for a meager 95 yards, the third-lowest total of his 195 career NFL starts, including playoffs. The only worse outings — 77 yards against the Vikings in 2018 and 93 yards against the Cowboys in 2017 — both came in Seattle victories. The Broncos got the ball with 47 seconds left in the first half and were facing third-and-5 from their 44 when they used their second timeout. Right tackle Mike McGlinchey was beaten by Chris Jones, who sacked Wilson for a 7-yard loss with 22 seconds left before halftime.“That’s a boneheaded mistake by me,” Payton said. “They were calling one as well and I’m off by a down, but that was stupid.”
Butker’s 60-yard field goal as the first half expired would come into focus in the fourth quarter when the Broncos pulled to within 16-8 only to allow Butker’s 52-yarder with 1:55 left that restored the Chiefs’ two-score advantage.
