December 18th, 2016 New England Patriots at Denver Broncos
This is a huge game, with enormous playoff implications. The Patriots have been reeling from their slow start after the four game suspension for Tom Brady, but are really in their stride now, but still looking up at the New York Jets in the division. The Broncos are looking up at the Kansas City Chiefs, and are currently tied with the Raiders who have a game in hand. This game is very reminiscent of the AFC Championship game, a defensive struggle with Von Miller and Demarcus Ware absolutely pestering Tom Brady all day long. However, an ill-timed Mark Sanchez interception will doom the Broncos on this day, and New England will squeeze out a 24-19 victory.
Record 8-6
