The struggling Raiders take on the playoff-bound Broncos in a Week 10 AFC West matchup. While the Broncos are on a six-game win streak, Las Vegas should keep this game close as Denver’s offense has struggled to stay consistent over the last few weeks.
Look for RJ Harvey and Troy Franklin to continue to make positive impacts. Our 3 top picks for Thursday Night Football are below. Good luck!
The Raiders are just 2-6 under Pete Carroll this season, with a handful of blowout losses and two victories against Tennessee and Week 1 at New England. While this team is trending downwards, the trio of Geno Smith, Ashton Jeanty, and Brock Bowers is finally healthy.
Though Denver’s momentum is the opposite, sitting at 7-2 on the year, they have not strung together complete games this year. They barely defeated Houston and both New York teams over the last four weeks, with their offense starting games extremely slowly.
In a primetime matchup, I’m taking Las Vegas to keep it close at Mile High against a team that has only won two games by more than a touchdown.
The Eugene, Oregon to Denver, Colorado connection is very real with Troy Franklin and Bo Nix connecting for three touchdowns in the last four weeks.
Facing a Vegas defense with some holes in the secondary, Franklin’s 70% snap share should get him enough targets down the field to reach this mark.
This season, he has gone for 4+ catches in five of nine contests. He’s slowly becoming the WR2 in Denver and has a real shot at WR1 status with Sutton not getting any younger.
Speaking of jumps up in the depth chart, RJ Harvey is starting to create real opportunities for the Broncos, scoring 5 touchdowns in the last 3 weeks.
Mostly used as a receiver, his 30% snap share should rise in this game after two straight 50+ yard games on just 15 touches.
With some added redzone touches with Dobbins serving more so as a goal line back, I like the rookie to get awarded extended opportunities in a game that the Broncos will try to hold onto possession as much as possible.
