After playing on Thursday, the Broncos do not have a game on Sunday. Here's a look at the team's remaining schedule.
Denver (7-2) also owns one of the NFL's best defenses, headlined by pass rushing aces Nik Bonitto and Jonathon Cooper. Bonitto has eight sacks this season, and Cooper has seven. Overall, the Broncos are allowing the third-fewest yards per game this season.
Denver's defense bailed out the Broncos in a 10-7 squeaker over the reeling Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday night, sacking Geno Smith six times to atone for spotty performances on offense and special teams. The Broncos (8-2) own the league's best record, but they didn't look anything like it on a windy night in the Rocky Mountains.
Following the victory on Thursday evening, the Broncos remained undefeated (4-0) in their throwback uniforms since reintroducing them in 2024, and Denver now has the NFL's best record in the NFL at 8-2. Denver now has until Nov. 16 to recover for a game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Denver Water is purchasing new land to relocate from Denver's Burnham Yard, making way for the new Broncos stadium.
The Broncos, Nuggets and Avs have their business in order. And their order is the top of the standings (Broncos and Avs) or within a whisker (Nuggets). None of this is a shock, though the Broncos perched ahead of the Chiefs and Chargers ranks as a surprise.
"Denver played one of the ugliest offensive games you’ll see on Thursday, but beat the Raiders to get to 8–2 while riding a seven-game winning streak. Next Sunday, the Broncos host the Chiefs in the biggest game they’ve played in a decade," Verderame wrote.
The injury report for the Denver Broncos (7-2) ahead of their game against the Las Vegas Raiders (2-6) features 10 players. The contest begins at 8:15 p.m. ET on Thursday, Nov. 6, at Empower Field at Mile High. Game time: 8:15 p.m. ET
