The Denver Broncos have a chance to retake the number one seed from the New England Patriots with a win over the Las Vegas Raiders this afternoon. A win will also give them all of the tiebreakers they will need to beat out New England if both teams finish with the same record at the end of the season. Suffice to say, this is a huge game for the Denver Broncos and they cannot afford to come out flat.
Kickoff is set for 2:05 p.m. Mile High time on Sunday, December 7, 2025 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. You can watch the live stream of the game through FuboTV or on CBS. The game will be called by Andrew Catalon (play-by-play), Charles Davis (analyst), Jason McCourty (analyst), and AJ Ross (sideline). You can also check local Broncos radio network affiliate stations.

Broncos vs. Raiders score predictions
According to FanDuel, the Broncos are 8.5-point road favorites over the Raiders this week. I was cautious again on my predictions, because this team seems to play up or down to their opponents. I certainly think they should beat the Raiders by two scores, but my confidence level that they will is not quite there based on their season so far. They should win still, though.
Prediction:Broncos 20, Raiders 17.

Broncos first drive has officially taken up MORE than half of the quarter.
Impressive drive.

TOUCHDOWN, Broncos.
That time, Bo Nix runs it in.
Impressive opening drive for Denver.

That’s the one guy you can’t leave wide open.
Broncos do it and it results in a Raiders TD.
— Zac Stevens (@ZacStevensDNVR) December 7, 2025
Courtland Sutton started waving for Raiders medical personnel to come onto the field as soon as Kyu Blu Kelly went down.
Kelly grabbed at his left knee and now the cart is out for him.

Hecukva play by Bo Nix to step up in the pocket and throw a DART to Courtland Sutton for a FIRST DOWN.
Great catch too.
— Zac Stevens (@ZacStevensDNVR) December 7, 2025
The Broncos sent Wil Lutz onto the field, but chose not to kick … they were trying to draw the Raiders offside.
Crawshaw with 4.24 seconds of hang time on his subsequent 35-yard punt. Strangely, it was fair-caught at the 5. 35 yards net and gross.

SACKED.
Malcolm Roach sets a new career high as he records his third sack of the season.

Near pick-6 for Zach Allen. Raiders will punt.

Bo Nix had a season-high nine dropbacks under center vs. Commanders last week and is playing a ton under center this first half (and on this drive).
Notable development as Sean Payton normally has him in heavy doses of shotgun.
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) December 7, 2025
Two-minute warning.
Bo Nix came into this weekend sixth in the NFL in passer rating during the last two minutes of each half and OT of games.

FIRST DOWN
Sean Payton goes for it on 4th down and picks it up.
Good pitch and catch from Bo Nix to Troy Franklin.
— Zac Stevens (@ZacStevensDNVR) December 7, 2025
On 4th and 3, Troy Franklin had 4-yd catch for first down but replay showed he didn’t have control until after he was knocked back 2 yards.
So turnover on downs, Raiders ball at LV41.

Bonitto gets on the board with a sack of his own.
Denver gets to Geno Smith three times in the opening half.
Bo Nix’s Hail Mary attempt falls incomplete, and the Broncos head to the locker room up 14-7.

#Broncos have held Raiders to 264 yards on 80 plays over six quarters this season. Or 3.3 yards per play. Just smothering them
— Troy Renck (@TroyRenck) December 7, 2025
Man, that’s the second ball that’s tipped right off Jahdae Barron’s hands the past couple weeks. But a sign to him being in increasingly better spots in this #Broncos defense.
Zach Allen with the pressure there and Raiders go 3-and-out.
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) December 7, 2025
Bo Nix has completed a pass to 11 different players today.

Harvey plunges forward for a first down on fourth-and-1. Denver’s at Las Vegas’ 12-yard line and leaning heavily on the clock.

Nix throws high to Sutton and it’ll be 4th down.
