There is just one game left in the season and the Raiders look to get back to .500 against their AFC West division rivals, the Denver Broncos up at Empower Field at Mile High.
Preseason predictions showed the Raiders as an improving team but most pundits predicted another losing season due to the difficulty of the Raiders schedule. For a while there in mid-season, the Raiders went on a tear and it looked like they were going to prove the nay-sayers wrong. They went three in a row after losing a very close game to the Texans in Houston, beating the Detroit Lions (31-24), the San Diego Chargers 26-24, and the Cincinnati Bengals (17-10).
