Gross Bombs: NFL Props for Week 16
Josh Gross
The Denver Broncos are suddenly alive in the AFC West, and at 5-5 in the standings, they only trail the Chiefs by one game for the division lead. The AFC West is in a bit of disarray with the Chiefs early struggles and the Broncos still have a lot of divisional games coming up. The Broncos are on bye for Week 11 but return in Week 12 to face the Los Angeles Chargers.
Super Bowl Odds Update – Denver Broncos
The Denver Broncos have the unfortunate reality of not making the postseason since 2015; when they made it last time, they won the Super Bowl over the Carolina Panthers. Since then, they’re a collective 36-50 in the standings. Entering Week 11 of the 2021 season, they’re 5-5 in the standings. Denver’s odds to win Super Bowl 56 have moved slightly to +10000 at BetMGM.

Broncos Futures Odds
The main futures markets to pay attention to for the Denver Broncos are odds to win the AFC West and AFC conference odds.
For the AFC West, they are last in odds at +1200 to win the division title and trail the Los Angeles Chargers (+150), the Kansas City Chiefs (-110) and the Raiders (+850). They still have a shot to surprise some teams, but Denver needs to win games within the division as it finished 1-5 in games against those three squads in 2020 and already took a loss to the Raiders in 2021.
As for AFC Conference odds, the Broncos are far down the list to get back to the Super Bowl and sit at +5000 odds at BetMGM to pull it off. That’s the 5th-worst odds in the conference and seems highly unlikely given the other three teams in their own division.
Denver Broncos Betting Trends
The Broncos are coming off a season where even though they finished 5-11 in the standings, they were a reliable spread most weeks. They finished 9-7 against the spread in 2020 and 5-3 ATS in road games. They’re 5-5 SU and ATS in 2021.
Although totals bettors didn’t find much of an edge for this squad in 2020 with an 8-8 O/U record, bettors in 2021 have been making bank on low-scoring outcomes involving Denver. Eight of the nine Broncos’ games this year have gone UNDER the closing total.
Here are the betting trends from the 2021 season:
- 5-5 ATS
- 2-8 O/U
