If we lose Sunday, we're not in the catbird seat any longer. The division will be Denver's to lose at that point.
I would agree (and have said) that Denver may be more motivated on Sunday. But we have a lot to lose.

It's really hard for me to get into the "respect" angle. Even if they win, a certain portion of the national media is going to find another reason to call them a fluke. I simply don't care about respect.
Win or lose, we can still control our own path to the playoffs.
If Denver loses, they lose all control. They have far more to lose.
