Sunday, January 01, 2017 4:25 PM
Play: Point Spread: 1.0/-102 Oakland Raiders
Oakland was all set to win the AFC West and challenge New England for top spot and top team in the AFC, but that all went out the window with Carr going down last week. Oakland can still win the AFC West and secure a bye with a win, but its not that easy as they have to travel on the road to Denver. Denver is out of it as far as playoffs and have lost three in a row, but would love to end on a win and winning year along with figuring out which quarterback they want to move forward with. Oakland is 3-2 in divisional games thus far while Denver hasn't fair well in divisional play having lost four of five heading into this game. Denver is just 4-3 at home while Oakland has played very well on the road having won six of seven. Oakland is going with Matt McGloin who is 2 of 4 on the year for 29 yards and for his career is 155 of 266 for 1,847 yards with 11 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in four years with the Raiders. McGloin has done well on the road with a 2-3 record and five touchdowns and only three interceptions. Look for McGloin to play well against a tough defense and Oakland to get the win and a bye to give them two weeks to prep for next game winning 20-17. Play Oakland
