The Las Vegas Raiders dominated the Denver Broncos in Sunday’s matchup and here are the studs and duds from the big win in Week 10.

The Las Vegas Raiders have not been on the right side of a blowout yet this season until Sunday’s matchup with the Denver Broncos. The AFC West rival hung tight through the first half, and had their chances to take the lead, but as has been the story in all the Raiders’ wins this year, they built a nice lead in the third quarter and this time didn’t look back.

The story of the day was the Raiders defense forcing the Broncos into some characteristic turnovers, as Denver is among the league leaders in giveaways. It was the first time the Raiders defense dominated a game all year when they didn’t have wild weather helping them control an opposing offense like it did in Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns.

Sunday’s matchup was the second time a Raiders defense has held an opponent to 14 points or less this year and just the fourth time they have done so since Jon Gruden took over in 2018. It was a dominant performance that showed up in and out of the box score and hopefully something they can build on for the rest of the year.

There were several players that were key contributors to this beatdown and a few that made it closer than it should have been thanks to a lack of focus. Let’s take a look at the studs and duds from the Raiders Week 10 win over the Broncos.
