The Las Vegas Raiders dominated the Denver Broncos from start to finish in Week 6, and with that said, here are 3 things we learned.

This has been an emotional and tumultuous week for the Las Vegas Raiders. Just a week ago they lost their head coach Jon Gruden due to an email scandal and they still had to suit up and play football on Sunday.

Gruden was in the fourth year of a 10-year contract and though many of us did not see him finishing out the deal, we did not expect it to end so soon and in such a shameful manner. During the scandal and the fallout of the emails, the Raiders and interim head coach Rich Bisaccia had to prepare to go on the road and face a division opponent in the Denver Broncos who are having some troubles of their own but strictly on the field.

Despite the distractions and everything that went along with it, the Raiders went into Denver and dominated the Broncos from start to finish. Here are three things we learned from the comprehensive victory as the Raiders stayed in the mix for the AFC West and a playoff position.
