The Broncos locked up the No. 1 seed in the AFC with a 38-3 win against the Chiefs at Sports Authority Field at Mile High on Sunday.

The victory guarantees them a first-round playoff bye and homefield advantage throughout the playoffs.

Quarterback Peyton Manning led the way with 304 passing yards on 23-of-29 passing with three touchdowns and a quarterback rating of 144.8. He set multiple franchise records with his 2012 numbers.

Wide receivers Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas each made highlight-reel touchdown catches. Decker finished with seven catches for 76 yards and two touchdowns while Thomas finished with seven catches for 122 yards and one touchdown.

Denver’s rushing attack was led by a committee of Knowshon Moreno, Lance Ball and Jacob Hester. Ball and Moreno accumulated 15 carries each and Hester finished with seven rushes for a career-high 53 yards. The Broncos finished with 170 yards rushing.

The defense, meanwhile, held Jamaal Charles and the Kansas City Chiefs to just 93 total rushing yards.

It sacked Chiefs quarterback Brady Quinn four times and allowed their offense to gain only 26 yards through the air.

Safety Rahim Moore and linebacker Keith Brooking each made their first sack of the season on Sunday.

The Broncos finish with a record of 13-3, tied for the best record in the NFL. They will take the field two weeks from now at Sports Authority Field at Mile High in the Divisional Round.

A three-and-out that featured linebacker Keith Brooking’s first sack since 2010 helped set up the Denver offense for its fifth touchdown drive of the game.

An 8-yard completion to tight end Virgil Green and a 9-yard completion to wideout Eric Decker helped get Denver moving.

A 15-yard defensive pass intereference call on a pass intended for tight end Jacob Tamme put Denver across midfield to the Denver 41-yard line.

A play later, Manning faked a handoff from the shotgun formation and lofted one for wideout Demaryius Thomas, who made a striding, over-the-shoulder catch to the K.C. 3-yard line.

Running back Lance Ball finished the drive off with a 3-yard touchdown run, his first of the season and second of his career.

After the score, Denver leads 35-3 with 1:04 remaining in the third quarter.

On the drive, Manning topped the 300-yard mark for the 72nd time of his career, extending an NFL record he already owns. It is the ninth time this season that Manning has topped that mark, which ties a career-best. In the game, Manning is 23-of-29 for 304 yards and three touchdowns, good for a passer rating of 144.8.

Thomas passed 100 yards receiving on the drive for the ninth time of his career and eighth time in the regular season. He has done so seven times in the 2012 season. It is the second straight week Thomas as topped 100 yards, as he has piled up seven catches on 122 yards in the game – the sixth-highest receiving yards total of his career.
