The Denver Broncos are sitting at 11-2 following a win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday and are in the driver's seat for home-field advantage throughout the playoffs .

Last year, the Broncos went 10-7 in coach Sean Payton's second season, reaching the NFL playoffs for the first time since the team won Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 campaign. Payton will now attempt to get his squad back to the playoffs -- and he has aspirations to go much further than the Wild Card round this time.

After going 10-7 and reaching the NFL playoffs last season, the Broncos have five nationally-televised games on their 2025 schedule. Denver will be featured on Sunday Night Football , Monday Night Football and Thursday Night Football this fall.

In a 2024 training camp joint practice, Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain had a pass breakup and outside linebacker Nik Bonitto had a sack.

Coming off a 22-19 win over the Kansas City Chiefs last week, the Denver Broncos have a bye in Week 12 (Sunday, Nov. 23) before going on the road to face the Washington Commanders on Sunday Night Football in Week 13 (Nov. 30).

FOXBOROUGH - The race for the AFC’s top seed has pretty much come down to two teams. Heading into Week 15, both the Patriots and Broncos have matching 11-2 records. At this stage, in the event of a tie, the Broncos have the edge based on their record versus common opponents.

The NFL set its Week 17 schedule by setting up a Saturday doubleheader that could have a significant impact on the playoff picture.
