Orton joined the Broncos as part of the trade that saw Jay Cutler head to Chicago in 2009, but his stay at Mile High proved to be a relatively short one as he was replaced by Tim Tebow this season and then waived, ending up with the Chiefs.

Tebowmania subsequently ran wild on the NFL as Denver embarked on a run of dramatic victories, but the bandwagon has been brought to a shuddering halt in recent weeks with defeats to the New England Patriots and the Buffalo Bills putting their playoff hopes in jeopardy.

Now the situation is quite simple for Tebow and the Broncos; win and they are in the playoffs.  If Orton gets his revenge and the Chiefs head back to KC with the win, Denver will need San Diego to beat Oakland.

Denver are 5/8 favourites to get the job done themselves, with a Kansas City win priced 6/4. The Chiefs are 23rd against the run this season and that is not a fact that can be overlooked, meaning Tebow and Co are likely to run over the visitors.

Eric Decker has become a popular target for Tebow and now has eight touchdowns for the season, and the wide receiver is 11/1 to make the first TD of this match his ninth of a successful campaign for him personally. The Broncos are expected to hand Kansas City a heavy dose of running back Willis McGahee, and he is 11/2 to score the first TD, while it would certainly be wrong to overlook Tebow in the first touchdown market. The former Florida star has already scampered in for six scores this season and he is 6/1 to make it seven with the games first six-pointer.

Dwayne Bowe leads the Chiefs with five touchdowns this season and he is 7/1 to get the first here, while Orton is a 50/1 outsider to put the first six-pointer on the board against his old side.
