Week 17 vs. Oakland Raiders

If the Broncos and Raiders are in first and second place in the AFC West, this game could determine three potential spots. The division crown, a first round bye, and a wild card spot.

The division crown comes with an automatic home game in the playoffs. A first round bye means skipping the wild card round, or they can play on the road in the first round and most likely the entire playoffs.

Both teams could very well have double digit wins by the time they play in the season finale in Denver. Can you say another flexed game for the Broncos?

How crazy would it be if the AFC West crown came to the final day of the season between the Raiders and Broncos? I’m getting goosebumps just thinking about it.

It will be interesting to see where these two teams are once Week 17 rolls around.
