The first will come on the road against the Oakland | Forum

Heading into their final two games of 2018 Chris Harris Jersey , the Denver Broncos will need to win both to avoid their first back-to-back losing season since 1971.  Raiders on Monday Night Football and Christmas Eve in what will be the Raiders final game in the City of Oakland.The fans in Oakland are going to be the rowdiest they’ve ever been despite their team being a lackadaisical 3-11. “I guess the fans, and it’s been a good football team for a long time,” Head Coach Vance Joseph said on Thursday. “It’s a tough place to play. They have unique fans, I would say. It’s a true home-field advantage, and when they’re playing well and they’re rocking, it’s a hard place to play. It’s going to be that way on Monday night—we kind of anticipate that a little bit. We’re getting ready for battle.” With Chris Harris Jr. officially moved to injured reserve on Wednesday, joining wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders, the Broncos are looking to the future with a lot of young players getting some playing time to close out the season. That means we should see a different team than one we’ve seen most of the season, especially on defense where young players will getting more playing time than they’ve gotten all year long.That is, those who are healthy. Despite the loss of several stars, the Broncos are reasonably healthy beyond that with only a few players hoping to get well enough to play on Monday.Broncos injury reportPlayerPos.InjuryThursdayFridaySaturdayGame StatusPlayerPos.InjuryThursdayFridaySaturdayGame StatusRaiders injury reportPlayerPos.InjuryThursdayFridaySaturdayGame StatusPlayerPos.InjuryThursdayFridaySaturdayGame Status Plenty of people cared deeply about Wednesday’s release of the schedule. Broncos coach Vic Fangio is not one of them.“I had no reaction, really,” Fango told reporters on Thursday. “I’m only interested to see who we play the first two weeks because that’s who you’ll start planning on in the offseason. Other than that Derek Wolfe Jersey , the schedule at this point in the season is really kind of irrelevant. Where the schedule does matter sometimes is during the season you may play teams that might be missing players. That helps you. Or, you might be missing your own players. That hurts you. Or, you get a team that’s on a hot streak and you get them right in the middle of their hot streak, or you get them when they’re playing down a little bit. There’s no way to predict what’s a good schedule.”Still, one of those first two opponents is the Bears, the team for which Fangio most recently worked.“It’ll just be another game,” Fangio said. “I’m sure there’ll be a little bit of build up to it, but it will be special to go against those guys. Those guys were great players and great people. I loved being around them, but for those 60 minutes it’ll be another NFL game.”The Broncos are hoping Fangio isn’t just another coach. In this era of young offensive minds, Fangio’s no-nonsense, old-school attitude could be exactly what Denver needs.
