"Broncos-Raiders Showdown: Quarterback Strategies and Streaks in NFL Week 18"

The Denver Broncos are facing a quarterback conundrum as inconsistency from Russell Wilson has led to speculation about his future with the team.

Ian St. Clair from Mile High Report suggests that the Broncos may look to a rookie quarterback in the next season, with names like Michael Penix Jr. or Bo Nix being potential candidates, while not ruling out a move for a veteran like Baker Mayfield. Additionally, the Broncos might consider trading receiver Jerry Jeudy and possibly cornerback Pat Surtain II to move up in the draft for a quarterback. The team's offseason focus will likely be on reloading, with edge rushers, playmakers at receiver and tight end, and decisions on the offensive line being key priorities. Despite the Raiders being slight favorites, the Broncos are motivated to win their upcoming game against the Las Vegas Raiders to break a losing streak and finish the season with a sense of pride.
