Week 17 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

The Broncos will conclude their regular season against the Las Vegas Raiders. However you saw this season going and looking at the predictions, this could be considered an okay season. Not a lot of us predicted the playoffs for the Broncos.

There is always an outside chance it happens. Never say never until it is set in stone. It would be quite interesting if this final game of the season would determine who makes it to the postseason.

But looking at the records of both teams, it is likely Las Vegas will be the team that will be in the hunt for the postseason. And with a chance to get to the postseason, I think the Raiders hand the Broncos a tough loss to close out the season.

However, if the Broncos are able to get to this record with how the season has played out for the first eight games, I will consider that a win in my books.

The sky is the limit. Hopefully, 2021 is a better year for them. 8-8 would be a huge win with all that has happened. But my final record below seems more realistic.

Record: 7-9
