After earning comeback road wins during each of their last two games, the Denver Broncos (6-4) return home this week to face the Oakland Raiders (2-8) on Sunday. Kickoff at INVESCO Field at Mile High is set for 2:05 p.m. MST, and the game will be televised by CBS with Dick Enberg and Randy Cross calling the action.

Denver is coming off a 24-20 win at Atlanta on Sunday against a Falcons squad that entered the game undefeated (4-0) at home. The Broncos trailed 20-17 in the fourth quarter before driving 83 yards in 10 plays for tight end Daniel Graham's 9-yard touchdown grab with 5:35 remaining that proved to be the game-winning score.

Winners of their first game against Oakland this year by a 41-14 margin on Monday Night Football in Week 1, the Broncos on Sunday look to sweep their season series with the Raiders for the ninth time in Mike Shanahan's 14 seasons as head coach (1995-Pres.). Shanahan owns a 21-6 (.778) career record against the Raiders, who have lost their last four games and last week at Miami were unable to hold onto a 15-14 lead with five minutes remaining in their 17-15 defeat to the Dolphins.

The Broncos enter this week's game with a two-game lead atop the AFC West over San Diego (4-6), which hosts Indianapolis on Sunday night. Denver has held the outright division lead following every week this season, marking only the second time in club history (1997) that it has been alone in first place through each of its first 10 games of a season. The team joins the 10-0 Tennessee Titans (AFC South) as one of two clubs in the NFL this year to own sole possession of first place in their division following every game.

While a team's turnover ratio often is indicative of its success, few teams in the NFL have proven that like the Broncos this year. Denver is 5-0 during the regular season and 7-0 including the preseason in games in which it posts an even or positive turnover ratio.

Seven different Broncos rookies have combined to make a total of 28 starts for the club this year. That group includes Spencer Larsen, who last week at Atlanta became the fourth player in the NFL since 1990 and the first player in Denver history to start the same game on both offense (fullback) and defense (middle linebacker).
