On this week’s Football Fridays with CHJ & BK, Brandon Krisztal and Chris Harris Jr. start with the news that rocked the Broncos’ locker room: Alex Singleton’s early-detected testicular cancer diagnosis. They discuss how the NFL’s medical testing helped catch it, what it means for Singleton’s timeline, and how teammates like Courtland Sutton are rallying around their captain and friend. From there, the guys hit the offensive side of the ball, reacting to Sean Payton’s comments about simplifying things for Bo Nix, the impact of first- and second-down penalties, and how much the drops and missed opportunities are holding the passing game back. They also talk about the return of Lil’Jordan Humphrey, what he brings as a blocker and reliable target, how Marvin Mims changes the explosive-play equation, and why wide receiver blocking is so critical to the Broncos’ screen game.

Then it’s time to go behind enemy lines as longtime Chiefs sideline reporter Josh Klingler joins the show to explain what’s really going on with Kansas City. Josh and Chris dig into why a 5–4 Chiefs team feels so “meh,” how their banged-up offensive line is holding them back, what Rashee (Richie) Rice adds to the offense, Travis Kelce’s continued dominance, and how teams like the Jags and Bills have attacked the Chiefs’ weaknesses. Back on the Broncos’ side, Chris breaks down why this Denver defense is so unselfish and dangerous, why Vance Joseph’s front can give Mahomes fits, and how guys like Zach Allen and Nik Bonitto can wreck the game if they keep Mahomes in the pocket. In the weekly Chris Harris Jr. Film Room, they roll back last year’s matchup in Kansas City to show how the Broncos generated pressure, what coverages worked against Kelce, and where communication busts simply can’t happen on third-and-long.

The guys also run through the latest Bell & Pollock Injury Report, from Singleton’s absence to Jonah Ellis’ hamstring, Marvin Mims’ return from concussion, and how the Broncos might deploy DeAndre Tillman on defense — and maybe even dream about him as a goal-line tight end. They close with their weekly picks around the league, including Commanders–Dolphins in Madrid, Bucs–Bills, Seahawks–Rams, Lions–Eagles, and finally their predictions for Broncos–Chiefs at Empower Field at Mile High. Will Denver’s defense be enough to slow down Mahomes, and can Bo Nix and the offense do just enough to pull off another statement win? Chris and Brandon both see a tight, low-20s game coming down to a late field goal.
