Doesn't mean shit, since oakland slayed them on opening monday night. Theyre still in first place right now, and Denver is in last.

it means the broncos are just as capable of making it to the playoffs as the raiders, chiefs, and chargers are. idk care man, i'm a bronco fan that's what's good, hopefully they can play some good ball tomorrow!

AS a KC fan here, I love my chiefs to death, but Oakland will win it. chiefs dug themselves into a hole, and our schedule is brutal from here on out. and Sandiego doesnt have their shit together, and denver isnt even in the picture.

So yeah, oakland will win and get their shit rocked just like my chiefs did last season. They are going to the playoffs but it wont mean any thing.

There's no way the ponies are going to make the playoffs by running the ball the whole time and throwing for like 60 yards every week against the teams remaining on their schedule. The Raiders have at least 4 winnable games left, and a game in hand on everyone... Broncos can only hope for 7 or 8 wins at this point... I don't realistically see them winning more than 3 or 4 of these...

NYJ
@SD
@MINN
CHI
PATS
@BUFF
KC

i'll be at the NYJ game this thursday night so i'm going to mark that up as a W

SD 50/50 but i'd say W, they haven't been playing any better then denver

Minn = W

fuck chicago and cutler, that game we will find a way to win i feel like= W

Pays= L

Buff= W

KC= W

obviously to some people this will seem like a joke, to a bronco fan this is how i see it, and what i hope for!

either way, wanna put up some bets on who makes it farther, Raiders VS Broncos


i got 100 bucks on the donkeys! haha

The Raiders have the ability to beat any team out there. The D line is one of the best in the league even though they don't play like it sometimes and by the time the playoffs come the secondary should finally be healthy. The offense, when healthy, is the second best in the league next to the Packers. Fuck the Pats. They have a great offense but absolutely no running game which is why Brady is in the shotgun 5 wide the entire game. If the Raiders get healthy and play like the team that they really are I would not be surprised to see them in the Super Bowl. However my money is on the Packers decimating everyone except for a close game against the 49ers and winning the Super Bowl no contest

The Jets are overrated as shit, so I could see that happening, but I have a feeling San Diego will throw all over Denver after that.

Chicago will beat Denver... I don't see how Denver will be able to run the ball that well on them, and regardless of their poor passing D, I don't see Tebow throwing all over them...

Pats is an obvious loss... Buffalo is a tossup depending who shows up (game's in Buffalo, so I'd pick them, honestly)

KC sucks monkeynut, so I agree there.

Either way, I don't see them winning 5 games the rest of the way enough to make it come down to a possible tiebreaker with Oakland or San Diego... January 1 will likely decide the division depending on how poorly SD does the rest of the way... They've lost 4 in a row, but I feel they have an easy enough schedule to pull out 5 wins - they'll have to beat Oakland in the hole to do it though...

Denver has absolutely no chance of beating the Jets. The jets just got unlucky against the pats and are taking the superbowl for sure.

Campbell is a free agent after this year. He's as good as gone. If that wasn't the case, this whole thing with Palmer would have likely never happened.

Depends who they play, really... Houston, New England and Pittsburgh all have total cupcake schedules the rest of the way, so it would be shameful if they all didn't win their divisions...

Pretty much leaves the likes of Cincinatti, NYJ, Baltimore, Tennessee, and Buffalo as your wild card contenders... with Cincy, New York, and Baltimore as the most likely to win it, since Tennessee and Buffalo are inconsistant as fuck.

I like Oakland's chances against any of them, really... San Diego's as well if they were to take the West.

I believe the Ravens will show up for the first time in 10 years in the playoffs and win it.

I was gonna say that the Texans might be the number 1 seed in the AFC but Schaub went down and they don't know how long until he comes back. Also their last six games include Atlanta, at Cincinnati, and Tennessee. Also their defense isn't the best and Cam Newton is always a wild card so that's not an automatic win either. So the Steelers will probably number 1 because the only real tough game they have is San Francisco and then they also play the Bengals who they already beat on the road. Baltimore has to play the Bengals twice and the 49ers plus the Steelers have a game on them so I'm thinking wild card. The Patriots could easily get first as well because their schedule is so easy. They play one team with a winning record and that's Buffalo. Buffalo's schedule isn't that hard and the Jets have about three hard games. My guess for wild card is Baltimore and Buffalo but don't quote me on Buffalo. It could very easily be New York. I think Patriots win the division at 13-3 and are top seed. Steelers (and it pains me to say this because I hate Ben Rapeateenager) win the division at 12-4 with a loss at San Francisco and are the 2nd seed. Raiders win the division at 11-5 with a loss to Green Bay and are the 3rd seed. I believe the 9-6 Texans will beat the 9-6 Titans to become the 10-6 Texans and the 4th seed in the playoffs. Texans lose first game against Baltimore. Raiders will beat Buffalo this time around if it is Buffalo. If it's the Jets then Rex "I like feet" Ryan might be able to rally the troops but I still think the Raiders D line can beat the Jets O line and Mark Sanchez. After that we have Baltimore vs. New England which I have no idea. That will be a great game. And then there's the Raiders vs. the Steelers. The Raiders can do it because they've done it before with Gradkowski at QB and you know Seymour wants to end Rapeateenager's career without punching him this time but it will be tough. Both will be great games. I think the Raiders can beat the Pats but not Baltimore, Baltimore will beat the Steelers, and the Pats vs. the Steelers I have no idea. And that's the AFC for you

Baltimore can handle Cincinatti.  They only lose to bad teams.

Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with the Ravens.  We handle the Jets and Texans with ease while having trouble with the Cardinals; we demolish the Steelers week 1, and then we lose to the Jags, Seahawks, and Titans.  The Ravens just play to their competition, and it's not good.  They should be undefeated.
