BILLS @ BRONCOS

At first glance you would see a sixth seed traveling to the top seed in the Divisional Round of the playoffs and think the ine seed has it. But this six seeded Buffalo Bills are better than most sixth seeds.
Josh Allen has much more playoff experience than Bo Nix. Allen is 8-6 in his career in the playoffs while Nix only has one loss for his young playoff career. 
The Buffalo Bills are 3-4 against teams with winning records this year including beating the Jacksonville Jaguars last week in the first round of the playoffs. The Denver Broncos are 4-2 against teams with winning records this year.

Denver is led by second year rookie quarterback, Bo Nix who only had 11 interceptions all season. They have a runningback by committee with Dobbins, Harvey, and McLaughlin. Their wide outs are Sutton who topped 1,000 yards receiving and Franklin. 
Buffalo was led by runningback, James Cook and quarterback, Josh Allen who had over 2,000 yards and 26 touchdowns rushing. 
Denver defense had 68 sacks, 10 interceptions, and 4 forced fumbles. 
Buffalo defense had 36 sacks, 13 interceptions, and 7 forced fumbles. 

If Bo Nix doesn't turn the ball over and Denver defense does it's thing, they should win. But guess what Buffalo, Patrick Mahomes is not in the playoffs (Allen is 0-4 against Mahomes) so something just feels like it's Buffalo's year.

The Denver Nuggets may be the team that can take out the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Nuggets did bring the Thunder to seven games in the Western Conference Semifinals this past post season.  They resigned Bruce Brown, signed Tim Hardaway Jr., Aaron Gordon will be healthy heading into the season, and Nikola Jokic will be a top three MVP player. Losing out on Jonas Valanciunas sucks, but maybe they'll be able to sign Bradley Beal if he becomes available?

The LA Clippers beat down the Denver Nuggets last night to take a 2-1 lead in their series. The Clippers were better than the Nuggets in almost ever statistical category which showed since they won by 34 points.  Nikola Jokic had a triple double, but only scored 23 points which is below his season average of almost 30 points per game. Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon both score in double digits, but the rest of team didn't help too much.  Denver and LA were 2-2 in the 4 games they played against each other this year.

BRONCOS

The Denver Broncos and Bo Nix are playing well this season. After beating their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders last night, they hold an 8-2 record.  Don't get too excited though, they have only beaten one team above 500 (Eagles). Their two losses are against the Chargers and the Colts.  Don't get me wrong, this team is playing well, has a good defense, and a good young quarterback, but lets see how they do against teams with winning records.  Their nect game is against the Kansas City Chiefs.
