The Denver Broncos cap off Week 3 of the regular season on Monday night, with a prime time match up against the AFC West rival Oakland Raiders. Peyton Manning and company have looked like the top team in the AFC throughout the first two weeks and they will be looking to continue rolling through the competition by dominating the lowly Raiders.

To be fair to Oakland, they have looked slightly more impressive than many had imagined, but they don’t stack up as a quality opponent for the Broncos on paper.

As a result, the folks in loss Vegas have the Raiders entering tonight’s game as 15.5-point underdogs.

It is hard to imagine the Raiders defense finding a way to stop Manning from lighting up the scoreboard, so we could be in for a lackluster finish to the week. At the very least, it will be fun to see how many touchdowns Manning can toss against another low-level opponent.
