With their win this past weekend against the Los Angeles Chargers, the Oakland Raiders kept their playoff hopes alive, and they hope to finish the job today against the Denver Broncos. Of course, the Raiders also need a ton of help in order to punch their ticket to the playoffs, but they can only control what they can control.
In what has been a roller coaster of a season, the Raiders got out to a 6-4 start, and appeared destined for the playoffs with some very winnable games ahead. Instead, they lost four straight, and needed that win against the Chargers to try and pull off a miracle two-week span this Sunday inside Empower Field at Mile High.
