DENVER — It took the Denver Broncos three tries to put away the Kansas City Chiefs. Terrance Knighton batted away Alex Smith's fourth-and-goal pass to Dwayne Bowe with 15 seconds left, preserving the Broncos' 24-17 win over the scrappy Chiefs on Sunday. The Broncos (2-0) thought they had sealed the win twice earlier on the drive.
