In Short: SportsLine's Projection Model forecasts a 22-19 victory for the Kansas City Chiefs over the Denver Broncos in Monday Night Football.

Monday Night Football will feature the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Denver Broncos, with the game set to kick off at 1 p.m. from Progressive Field in Cleveland.
According to SportsLine's Projection Model, the Chiefs are favored to win with a score of 22-19. The model simulates every game 10,000 times and has a track record of accuracy, including correctly predicting De'Von Achane's performance.
SportsLine's model also identifies top Fantasy football sleepers, urging players to find diamonds in the rough as the Super Bowl rematch between the Patriots and Seahawks approaches.
CBS Sports expert Eric Cohen is also backing the Bears in another game, but questions remain about whether the two teams will combine to hit the over on the total.
SportsLine's model, which is up almost $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception, is now being used to predict the outcomes of college football games as well.
Joe Buck, the play-by-play voice of Monday Night Football, has signed a new five-year, $75 million contract to continue his role, according to Bleacher Report.
SportsLine is offering a $25 trading bonus after a $10 deposit with the promo code SPORTSLINE, and Kalshi is also offering a similar bonus with their promo code SPORTSLINE.
The Rams began the 2026 NFL season as the highest price in futures trading to win the pro football championship, sitting at approximately 17% to win it all (84% No).
If the Rams are hosting the 49ers, and Los Angeles is trading at Yes 60% to win, you would pay $0.60 per event contract.
SportsLine's model is also being used to predict the outcomes of college football games, with the model being 59-49 on top-rated CFB picks this season.
CBS Sports expert Ben Johnson praised Case Keenum's performance on Monday night, calling it a 'sublime performance' and commending the coach's game plan with a third-string quarterback.

- "All hail Case Keenum after his sublime performance on Monday night. You can't tell me that Ben Johnson isn't a top-10, if not higher, coach in the NFL right now. Brilliant game plan with a third-string QB in Week 3. The Jets are improved and could be a playoff team within the next two years, but I'm not sure that they are much better than a six or seven-win team in 2026. Chicago's strong rushing attack should be enough to secure a victory at home."
