Betting News: Tebow, Broncos Lose; Still Clinch Top Spot In AFC West

When it comes to Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos, there is no doubt that there is an aura surrounding the team and everything they have done this season. That aura was taken to a new level on Sunday, when despite suffering their third straight loss to close out the season, and second in as many games against sub-.500 teams, the Broncos still managed to lock up the top seed in the AFC West and a trip to the playoffs. Denver managed to score just a field goal against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in a 7-3 loss, but with the Oakland Raiders losing to the San Diego Chargers 38-26 at home, they managed to squeeze in to the postseason. It won’t get any easier for the Broncos now that they have made it, as they get set to meet the Pittsburgh Steelers in the opening round. Meanwhile, despite losing to the Baltimore Ravens and falling to 0-4 against the top two teams in the AFC North, the Cincinnati Bengals clinched the final AFC wild card spot and will travel south to take on the Houston Texans next week, while in the NFC the New York Giants locked up the NFC East with a 31-14 home win over the Dallas Cowboys the eliminated their division rivals.
