Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I just made a scenario where all the teams I wanted to lose do so and the Broncos actually seem to have better tiebreakers than the Bills week 18.
Problem is this scenario also ends up with KC needing to beat us the last week to get the 1 seed. We can actually still make the playoffs with a loss against KC assuming the right combination of teams lose.

Same. Realistically though we will have to beat KC to make it.
Titans fan here. I’ve always liked the Broncos and wish your team well. I was reading the playoff predictions on ESPN today and got intrigued when it said the Broncos have a 1% (or less) chance of making the playoffs. I thought, “I’m going to go to the simulator and see what has to happen.” I figured it out.
Broncos path to the playoffs:
Win out—must win both games.
Week 17
Must happen:
Titans over Dolphins
Browns over Steelers
Rams over Ravens
Week 18
Must happen:
Steelers over Ravens
Cincinnati over Browns
Patriots over Dolphins
Chargers over Raiders
If all that happens then the Broncos are in regardless of what happens in all the other games. (And if any game ends different the Broncos are out)

That's all correct except for week 17 the colts must beat the raiders as well and looks like Wentz is out due to COVID-19 protocols

It is fitting the most unrealistic thing by far in that scenario is the Broncos will win
