The Denver Broncos are the No. 7 seed and the final team in the AFC playoff picture entering Week 12 of the regular season. A stranger to the postseason since last securing a spot in the 2015 season, the Broncos (6-5) are ahead of the Indianapolis Colts (5-6) and Miami Dolphins (4-6) in the conference wild-card race. Denver is effectively two games behind the current No. 6 seed because of a head-to-head loss to the Baltimore Ravens (7-4). Denver's most recent postseason appearance came in Super Bowl 50 in 2016, when Peyton Manning -- in his final career game -- and the Broncos defeated the Carolina Panthers.
