Oakland Raiders vs Denver Broncos Sun. Oct. 24th 4:15pm EST

The AFC West division has notoriously been one of the worst divisions in the NFL for quite some time with the San Diego Chargers winning the division title almost annually, but this season the division has been turned upside down with the San Diego Chargers struggling and the Kansas City Chiefs leading the way.

As of right now, the Kansas City Chiefs look like they are destine to win the AFC West division title, but if the Oakland Raiders and the Denver Broncos get back on track they have a good shot at contending within the division and getting back into the playoffs. When it comes to the playoffs, make sure to do your NFL football betting at a world class sportsbook.

Unfortunately, both the Raiders and the Broncos are coming off disappointing losses against teams they could have beaten, but in Week 7 they will have a chance to redeem themselves in this AFC West showdown.

Coming into this divisional matchup, the Denver Broncos will almost certainly be favorites to come out on top, but I believe Tom Cable and company are more than capable of pulling off the upset.

The Oakland Raiders may be coming off a disappointing loss to the San Francisco 49ers, but they have played a bit better than anticipated this season and could be ready to get back on track with a win over their division rivals this Sunday in the Mile High City.

Obviously, both the Raiders and the Broncos have their work cut out for them as it will be difficult to compete with the Kansas City Chiefs this season as they are playing some impressive football this year, but in my opinion both teams are capable and should make for a good show this weekend.

So even though the Broncos are probably the team favored to come out on top in this AFC West showdown, I think the Raiders will be able to pull off the upset and gain some ground in the division.
