Denver Broncos at Las Vegas Raiders: 3 bold predictions in 2020 Week 10
Raiders force three turnovers
The Raiders have been horrible in terms of forcing turnovers this season. They are tied for 31st in the league for interceptions this season with just three, an area that has been an issue for this franchise for quite some time. Fortunately for the Raiders, that number changes this week, as the Broncos are one of the most turnover-heavy offenses in the NFL.
Broncos quarterbacks have thrown 12 interceptions this season, tied for the most in the NFL, six of those coming from Drew Lock in just five games. I would expect the Broncos to start off slow like usual, as the Raiders are going to force Lock to make bad decisions, throwing two interceptions and fumbling the ball once, as well.
This will finally be the week that we see the Raiders defense step up, frustrating the Broncos defense the majority of the first half, and coming away with a late turnover to end the game. The Broncos never go away, but winning the turnover battle is going to go a long way in the Raiders possibly putting them away early.
