Raiders lose AFC West, another QB in 24-6 loss to Broncos (Yahoo Sports)

In a game that couldn't have gone much worse, Oakland lost its latest starting quarterback, Matt McGloin, to a shoulder injury, then fell 24-6 on Sunday to Denver, a team with nothing to play for and facing the possible exit of coach Gary Kubiak for health reasons. Combined with Kansas City's win over San Diego, the Raiders (12-4) squandered the AFC West title and the first-round bye that went with it - and instead fell to the No. 5 seed. The Raiders came into the last week of the regular season with a chance at the AFC's top seed.
