Road loss to Titans makes Broncos’ playoff road much harder
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Denver Broncos already faced the NFL’s toughest stretch in their bid to reach the playoffs and defend their Super Bowl title.
Their path just got much, much tougher.
The Broncos lost 13-10 Sunday to the one team left on their schedule without 10 wins already. Instead, the Tennessee Titans finished off a big victory that kept them tied with Houston atop the AFC South.
Now the Broncos (8-5) are two back in the mighty AFC West with three games remaining — and in a crowded field for a wild-card berth.
