The 2-2 Oakland Raiders will begin divisional play tomorrow against the 4-0 Denver Broncos. I’m sure you’ve figured out by the records and recent history that the Raiders are underdogs in the contest. But I’m sure this young talented team has plenty of will and head coach Jack Del Rio along with staff have a way.

This is in no way an article to predict a win over the big, bad Broncos but a win is possible. The media has been talking like the Broncos, especially their defense, is this big juggernaut. That may be the case but there are some weaknesses there that the Raiders will be able to exploit.
