The Denver Broncos (5-10) host the Las Vegas Raiders (7-8) to close out the regular season Sunday of Week 17 at 4:25 p.m. ET. Here’s a look at the early Raiders-Broncos betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Raiders were eliminated from postseason contention Saturday night with a crushing, last-second 26-25 loss to the visiting Miami Dolphins. The Silver and Black seemingly put the wraps on a big victory with PK Daniel Carlson’s 22-yard field goal with 19 seconds remaining, but a 34-yard desperation connection between Miami QB Ryan Fitzpatrick and WR Mack Hollins with a Las Vegas 15-yard facemask penalty tacked on, set up PK Jason Sanders’ improbable, game-winning 44-yard field goal with only a second remaining.
It was the Raiders’ fifth loss in their last six games, and it ensures they will miss the playoffs for the 17th time in the last 18 seasons. QB Derek Carr completed 21 of 34 passes for 336 yards and a touchdown while adding a 1-yard rushing score. WR Nelson Agholor caught five passes for 155 yards and a TD.
The Broncos also are struggling of late, having dropped two straight, and six of their last eight following Sunday’s 19-16 road loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. QB Drew Lock completed 24 of 47 passes for 264 yards and rushed for 15 yards and a TD but failed to throw a scoring pass while being picked off twice. PK Brandon McManus connected on 3 of 4 field-goal attempts, but a second-quarter try that clanged off the left upright proved to be the difference in the end.
The Raiders dominated the visiting Broncos 37-12 in Week 10, easily covering as 3.5-point favorites as RBs Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker each rushed for a pair of touchdowns, while Lock tossed a career-high four interceptions. The final score, though, slid Under the 50-point total.
