There was a time this game was circled on the schedule.
For the more seasoned fans of the Denver Broncos, that’s still the case. No matter the amount of time that passes or the two franchises change, the games against the Oakland Raiders still matter the most.
It’s officially Raider Week. And right on cue: Fuck the Raiders!
But there is an aspect about the 2018 edition of this classic rivalry that is both marvelous and hilarious. Perhaps it’s the return of Jon Gruden. To a lesser extent, it’s the fact Denver is 2-3 in the last five games.
