Sunday will be the 130th all-time meeting between the Las Vegas Raiders and the Denver Broncos.
The division has been highlighted the past two seasons by having the back-to-back Super Bowl Champions Kansas City Chiefs in it, but the division is much greater than just one team. This Sunday the battle between the Las Vegas Raiders and Denver Broncos will add yet another chapter to its long history between the two rivals.
Eight games in a row is an impressive streak, but in 64 years of the rivalry, it is not the longest streak. The Raiders had a 14-game win streak from 1965-1971. The Broncos' longest win streak against the Raiders was from 2011 to 2015, when they, too, won eight straight games. In 1977, the Raiders traveled to Denver to play them in the AFC Conference Championship with a Super Bowl appearance on the line. The Broncos won 20 - 17 to capture their first AFC Championship. In 1993, these teams also met in the playoffs in the AFC Wild Card. The Raiders defeated the Broncos and moved on with a 42 - 24 victory.
