Raiders seek a moral victory in the Broncos' division [TNF Live Thread]

The 9-3 Broncos have already clinched their division coming into tonight's game against the 3-9 Raiders. Denver is a more complete team than anyone expected this year, looking pretty great on both sides of the ball. Peyton is making everyone forget about the fact that he's had 4 potentially dangerous neck surgeries, and Von Miller is making everyone outside of Denver wish they had him at OLB on their team. 

Barring any craziness happening (which is always a possibility in this league), the Raiders defense will have more than they can handle tonight. They might be better off letting Manning throw a few deep passes for short scoring drives and then wear down the D with Darren McFadden. Yep, he's back. 

I see one of two things happening; one probable, and one a remote possibility. Either the Broncos kill the Raiders and we just get to enjoy the excellence that is Peyton Manning under center, which is always a thrill. Or the Raiders make this a game, which will be good for some entertainment whether they win or lose. Either way, I'll be watching (after the Cee Lo intro, anyway). Grab a drink and Q it up here for some Thursday Night Football!
