The game against the Colts is not a must-win game technically speaking. But when we take a look at the remaining schedule, it may make many in Broncos Country take pause:
Colts at Broncos Dec. 15
Broncos at Chargers Dec. 19
Broncos at Bengals Dec 29
Chiefs at Broncos Jan 5
Those last three games look pretty tough at this point and time, especially if the Chiefs have something to play for in the final week of the season.
This young team is getting a real trial by fire for their playoff aspirations and I am absolutely loving it.
Big moments in football are the crucible that either exposes a team's flaws as it falls short or provides an opportunity for a great team to make a statement.
This week is going to be a very big moment for Sean Payton’s Broncos.
Win and the Broncos are so very likely to make the playoffs for the first time since 2015.
Lose and the pressure cooker gets cranked to max as the Broncos will need to win some very tough games to get to the post-season.
It's a must-win game for both teams. A win and the Broncos basically lock up a wildcard spot.
A loss puts them in hot water. https://t.co/gaGqItboX1
