With their victory over the Chargers on Sunday afternoon, the Broncos locked up the top seed in the AFC and will have the elusive first-round bye next week. The Broncos will be the only AFC playoff team not to play next week, and will not know their first playoff opponent until the end of next week. Denver will truly enjoy this next week off and will use it to get healthier.
The Broncos picked up an incredibly boring 19-3 victory over the Chargers on Sunday, and seemed to be using an incredibly limited Playbook. The Broncos took no shots down the field, were mostly relying on the running game and short screens, and seemed incredibly content with an ugly win.
