“We have to play the game to win, that’s all that matters,” Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton said. “We don’t care about none of the other stuff. Whoever has on shoulder pads and is wearing red, white and yellow, we have to beat them boys. The franchise has churned through half a dozen coaches and more than a dozen starting quarterbacks since hoisting the team’s third Lombardi Trophy nearly nine years ago.on Christmas Day that secured the conference’s first-round bye as they seek a three-peat as Super Bowl champions. Reid is using the finale as a chance to rest some of his starters, who will have more than a three-week break by the time they return to the field for an AFC divisional-round game on either Jan. 18 or 19.

“You could say that it would have been nice to be able to go into this game and have your position locked in,” Sutton said, “but in terms of a storybook thing that you couldn’t really write up any better, I think this is the best opportunity that we could have to go in and solidify why we deserve to be in the dance.”
