In a decisive Week 11 matchup, the Denver Broncos topped the Las Vegas Raiders with a final score of 35-17, solidifying their playoff aspirations. The victory not only boosts Denver's confidence but also tightens their grip on a strong position in the AFC standings as the season heads into its final stretch.
Offensively, the Raiders saw a solid performance from quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr., who threw for 237 yards and two touchdowns. Despite the loss, Richardson’s efforts kept Las Vegas competitive, with standout performances from his receiving corps, including Dont'e Thornton Jr., who racked up 102 receiving yards. However, the Broncos' RJ Harvey led the ground game with 78 rushing yards, helping to balance their offensive attack.
Defensively, the Broncos made a significant impact, with Pat Surtain II securing two crucial interceptions that shifted momentum in their favor. Alex Singleton led the team with four total tackles, contributing to a strong defensive showing that kept the Raiders at bay. The turning point came late in the second quarter when Surtain's second pick set up a touchdown that gave Denver a commanding lead, ultimately sealing the win.
