The NFL has laid out a path by which the Raiders can clinch a playoff berth on Sunday. That’s right, the playoffs are just five (not so easy) steps away for the 7-8 Raiders.
First, the Raiders will need to beat the Broncos in Denver. After that …. well, it doesn’t really matter, according to the Broncos’ Phillip Lindsay.
“If they think they’re going to come here and clinch a playoff (spot), they got another thing coming. … If they think they’re going to come in here and just get one, they’re sadly mistaken,” Denver’s running back told reporters Tuesday.
