Denver Broncos vs. LA Rams

This game was mentioned briefly in the intro, but this game between the Broncos and the Rams is as big as it comes on Christmas day. If the Broncos can win on the road over the holidays, it’ll show a lot of progress. By this time in the season, they should be clicking on all cylinders, and as long as there aren’t a lot of injuries, the Broncos can hang with the Rams.

It will be a must-win for the Broncos because to dethrone the reigning Super Bowl champs is a huge moral victory, and the Broncos need as many of those as they can get. If the Broncos can take down Matthew Stafford and the Rams, it will give them the confidence to close the last stretch of the season out with a bang.

This game is one of the most highly anticipated matchups because it is on Christmas day, and the quarterback matchup will be a fun one to watch.

Between this game and the Chiefs game, Russell Wilson will have a lot of quarterback battles, so his competitive edge is there because this game isn’t one where he can relax.

Will Stafford or Wilson emerge on top and win this game? Only time will tell, but whoever has the better game and gives their defense enough rest to get those stops will be the victor.
