Broncos aim for playoff spot with key strategies against Bengals on Saturday

The Denver Broncos can secure a playoff spot by defeating the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. This game marks the anniversary of the Broncos' last postseason clinch, also against the Bengals, nine years ago. Key strategies for the Broncos include establishing a strong running game early and effectively matching cornerback Pat Surtain II against Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase. The return of cornerback Riley Moss is expected to enhance the Broncos' defensive pressure. The Bengals, facing elimination from the playoffs, will likely play with urgency. The Broncos, while still having a chance to clinch next week, need to match this intensity to succeed in a challenging environment.
