The Denver Broncos (6-6) come into this game against the San Francisco 49ers (2-10) having finally put together several confidence-building wins after a tough 3-6 start to the season. The AFC playoff picture is pretty muddled and uncertain for a slew of .500 teams, but the Broncos favorable schedule moving forward gives them a good chance to make some waves.
Those waves can only continue if they keep winning. After losing both Emmanuel Sanders and Chris Harris Jr. to injury, it will be on the ‘next man up’ to make it happen.
