It hardly seems believable, but the 2020 season for the Denver Broncos is already coming to an end.

In the midst of a pandemic, we should be grateful that the NFL season was able to be played at all, but unfortunately, the Broncos will be wrapping up another disappointing season in a year that was especially bizarre, especially considering how hard the Broncos were hit by injury this season.

For the second season in a row, the Broncos will face off with the Las Vegas Raiders in a regular season finale that has no playoff implications. Aspirations were high for both franchises coming into 2020, but neither team could get it done.

Unfortunately, instead of battling for rights to second place in the division, the Broncos face finishing in last place in the AFC West if they lose this game.

There may be no playoff implications, but as always with a divisional rival, pride is riding on the line for both teams.

Let’s get to the preview.
