The Las Vegas Raiders' defense chocked the life out of the Denver Broncos' offense in what had to be one of their best showings all season long. Not only is that evident by the Raiders only allowing one third-down conversion the entire game, but also how the Raiders' defense held the Broncos to 158 yards the entire game. The team also didn't allow Drew Lock to get in for a touchdown, which one could argue was downright critical to the victory.

The Raiders also held the Broncos to less than 20 rushing yards the entire game and forced the Broncos to pass more than they probably wanted to. This put a lot of pressure on Lock, who was eventually sacked twice. Of course, the Broncos aren't the best opponents in the league, but the Raiders' defense deserves a lot of credit for keeping the season alive. Hopefully, they can do the same against the Colts and the Chargers in the season's final two games.
