The Denver Broncos desperately need a win in Week 16 to stay in the playoff race. The team found itself in good position prior to Week 15, but a dreadful loss to the Detroit Lions dropped Denver down to 7-7.

All six of those teams remain in the thick of the playoff hunt, though the Broncos are the longest shot in that group to actually get in. A win over the New England Patriots wouldn’t push the Broncos into a playoff spot, but would keep the team in the hunt.
