Prediction

As I have stated before, seeing the Denver Broncos sweep the Oakland Raiders would be a Christmas dream come true. That is one of the things that I am asking Santa for Christmas. Granted it is an early present, it would make Christmas Day all the sweeter.

Oakland got a surprise win over the Pittsburgh Steelers just a couple weeks ago, so we should not sleep on this team. In the last meeting, it took a Brandon McManus field goal to get the win.

Plus, anything can happen in an AFC West showdown.

For some reason, I see this being a low scoring game. While the Oakland Raiders are last in points allowed, I do not see Denver taking advantage. They will get a ton of yards, but not enough points to show for it.

Phillip Lindsay will get his 1,000 yards and the Broncos will play mistake free football. The defense will force some timely turnovers while Von Miller and Bradley Chubb continue on their trends.

Denver wins in their final road game of the year.
