They won three out of four games, losing only to Kansas City int hat period. Rookie Drew Lock, had a great December, after taking over the starting job. There is a lot of excitement in Denver, after last couple of games, where it seemed that they finally have found a franchise quarterback.

They are traveling into a hostile environment to get their part of the job done. Especially against a fired-up team, trying to catch the last train. McCarron replacing Deshaun Watson and not having DeAndre Hopkins at this disposal is a massive downgrade. But the one between Houston and Tennessee is a tricky one. But unfortunately for Oakland, some of these teams already cemented their places int he playoffs and will rest their starters today.īaltimore does have a very deep roster and could still defeat Pittsburgh who has issues of their own at the QB position. At first glance, that doesn't seem like mission impossible. But also need Pittsburgh to lose to Baltimore, Tennessee to Houston and Jacksonville to Indianapolis. In order to get there, they obviously need to win their game. Just when we thought it's over, they defeated the Chargers last week, and thanks to some other results, they got right back in the playoff race. But then a downfall began, where they lost four games in a row (and were favored in two of those).

Standing at 6-4 just a month ago, they were one of the most pleasant surprises of the season, considering that nobody expected them to hold a winning record at that point, after playing a brutal schedule to begin the season. Bunch of results will have to fall their way today, but the calculation for them to get into the playoffs does exist. It's quite amazing that the Raiders are still alive.
