Week 10 of the NFL brings a Thursday Night Football showdown between the Las Vegas Raiders and the Denver Broncos, set for November 6 in Denver. As always this season, you can catch the game exclusively on Prime Video, which continues to be the home for Thursday nights—the only way to tune in is by streaming through the Prime Video app or website. Major outlets like FOX Sports and Pro Football Network confirm this broadcast arrangement.

Looking at the betting lines, DraftKings and Fox Sports both have Denver as a solid 10-point favorite over Las Vegas, with the moneyline around Broncos minus 500 and plus 380 for the Raiders, and an over under of 42.5 points. Covers.com and FanDuel both highlight the sense of lopsided matchups in the odds, with Denver favored at home thanks largely to their defense, which has been particularly stingy at Mile High. That said, the spread has crept a half-point since Sunday, reflecting increasing skepticism surrounding the Raiders offense under pressure in a tough road environment.

This week, much of the media buzz centers around Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix, who’s been playing controlled, mistake-free football. According to ESPN’s recent commentary, his poise and the Broncos clock-control offense are key reasons oddsmakers and analysts see Denver as a firm favorite. On the other side, the Raiders' first-year head coach is drawing attention for his aggressive 4th-down calls, and there’s league-wide chatter about whether second-year quarterback Aidan O’Connell, who threw for 284 yards and two scores last week, can replicate recent late-game heroics against a Broncos secondary that leads the AFC in takeaways according to NFL.com.

The Raiders' main playmaker to watch is tight end Brock Bowers, fresh off a 127-yard effort, while the Broncos lean on Courtland Sutton and running back Ashton Jeanty, who’s set to get an expanded role after J.K. Dobbins was ruled out Tuesday with a high-ankle sprain, as first reported by NFL Network this morning. Injury-wise, the Raiders will again be without defensive tackle Bilal Nichols, while Denver lists safety Justin Simmons as questionable with a calf tweak, but signs point to him playing.

Media voices are largely in agreement on the basics: The Denver Post’s latest preview picks the Broncos to win comfortably, predicting the Raiders' offense to struggle in the altitude, while the Las Vegas Review-Journal argues that Las Vegas’ “nothing to lose” mentality could bode well for a feisty performance—if O’Connell can avoid costly turnovers. No major surprises or last-second bombshells have dropped in the past 24 hours, though several analysts, including Fox’s Colin Cowherd, have speculated on whether this Raiders regime is already nearing a breaking point if the game gets out of hand.
