NFL power rankings: Week 14 hump day edition

(10-2). Previous: . Denver Broncos. 5. team. 45. <p>The third week of the Brock Osweiler era for the Broncos was pretty much the same as the first two. With this young man under center, this team just looks reinvigorated, which isn’t a slight to Peyton Manning at all. They just may have needed a change, and when it was finally made, things were going to start looking up again.</p> <p>This win moved them to 10-2 on the season now, and even with the youngster under center, you still get the feeling that they can be a legitimate Super Bowl contender down the road with this stifling defense they possess.</p> <p>Denver still has a tough schedule ahead of it, although three of the four remaining games are at home. The Broncos should win this week, hosting the Oakland Raiders before traveling to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. It will be a treat watching Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown go against the best defense in football. After that, the Broncos return home to host the Cincinnati Bengals on a Monday night before closing out the season against San Diego.</p>
