Denver Broncos (3-7) at Buffalo Bills (7-3)

Sunday, November 24, 1PM ET

I keep wanting to write off this Denver Broncos team, but they keep making it hard to do so. After they beat the Cleveland Browns a couple of weeks ago, they nearly toppled the Minnesota Vikings before a historic second-half collapse. Despite all of that, they must be taken seriously.

I’m sure Sean McDermott will have his squad prepared for Sunday, though. The Buffalo Bills have been impressive this year, winning with suffocating, opportunistic defense and an offense that makes just enough plays to stay ahead on the scoreboard.

Putting up a ton of points won’t be easy for Josh Allen and Co. going up against Denver’s exceptional defense. Still, with the Buffalo D doing their thing against a Brandon Allen-led offense, the Bills should have plenty of opportunities to find the end zone. As long as they avoid turnovers and feed Devin Singletary and John Brown early and often, things should go right for Buffalo.

I’m still a bit shocked that the Bills are 7-3, but they’ve earned it. If they can avoid falling asleep and slipping up against the Broncos, they’ll be that much closer to securing one of the AFC’s Wild Card spots and ensuring their season doesn’t end in December.

Prediction: Bills win 21-16
