The hardest thing for all sports teams is handling prosperity. The Broncos are coasting, do you remember how awesome they looked the first two weeks, destroying two good teams, the Patriots and the Cowboys. They are but a shadow of that performance, playing just enough to win. Going after a perfect season doesn't draw the same intensity as a battle for first place in the division. The Broncos have quite a cushion and a easy schedule, they must feel pretty good about the season, and they will win the division, and have the best record in the NFL. (assuming most of their starting lineup stay healthy)

Reasons for a Raider upset.

Elway and Davis listed with 11 of their teamates as questionable, 9 more as probable, essentially they got beaten up in Kansas City, the Raiders will do the same to them.

Raider defence, despite the injuries to Allen and Turner, will overpower the injury riddled Denver offense.

I think the Raiders will play with more intensity, which leads to more turnovers by the Broncos.Anything can happen in a football game.

Cheers
