Chargers' Wild Card loss proves how far ahead the Denver Broncos are

The Denver Broncos had an 11-game win streak at one point in the 2025 NFL Season, and Denver ended up positioning themselves so nicely that a late-season loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars actually didn't negatively impact Denver in the playoff push.

The Chargers rested many of their starters in Week 18, which allowed Denver to cruise to a victory in the second half. Now since on the bye, the Broncos sat back and watched the interesting AFC Wild Card Round thus far. With the Chargers' loss to the New England Patriots and the Buffalo Bills' win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Broncos are hosting the Bills in the Divisional Round.
