The Broncos got a big win on the road last week in the Meadowlands as they knocked off the Jets 10-9. It was an ugly game that was affected heavily by the rainy conditions all game long. Nonetheless, Denver found a way to win the game and improve to 2-2 after an 0-2 start to the year. Now, the Broncos head back home to take on their nemesis, the Raiders, in a game that features the Broncos wearing their classic 1970s-1980s throwback uniforms. It will be beautiful to see those uniforms and helmets again. Denver has lost 8 straight games to the Raiders, and they haven't beaten them since December of 2019. The Broncos defense has been tremendous to start the season, and it has helped them get back to .500 as the offense comes along with Bo Nix leading the way. This is a tough game for the Broncos because the Raiders have really matched up well with them the last few years. The Broncos are due to finally beat the Raiders, but until I see it, I just can't pick them.
Prediction: Las Vegas (+3) over DENVER
Final Score: Raiders-23 Broncos-16
