It was a good Sunday for the Broncos, who moved within a win of clinching an AFC Wild Card playoff berth and also saw potential roadblocks Miami and Los Angeles both lose. Miami is now one of three 6-8 teams in the AFC with a worse than 10% chance of reaching the postseason, according to NFL.com’s playoff picture. That leaves four teams likely jostling for Wild Card seeds 5-7 with one of Pittsburgh or Baltimore winning the AFC North. Both hold a head-to-head tiebreaker over Denver. A look at the stretch run:
