Broncos don't control their own destiny
Quote:
While there are a lot of confusing scenarios, we know this much: the Ravens and Jets are both in the playoffs with victories in Week Seventeen.
The Broncos are in the best position after that. If Denver beats Kansas City at home, the Broncos just need two other things to happen.
The Broncos need the Ravens or Jets to lose, and need to not finish in a two-way tie with the Steelers for the final spot; Pittsburgh beat them head-to-head. If it's a three or four way tie, Denver's superior conference record would take over.
The Broncos, then, are in the odd position of wanting the 8-7 Texans to win because Houston could negate Pittsburgh's advantage over Denver in a head-to-head tiebreaker.
