After snapping a long playoff drought by reaching the playoff last season, Sean Payton&rsquo;s squad has taken another giant leap. Sitting at a sparkling 10-2 heading into December, the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/nfl\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Broncos <\/a>currently own the best record in the AFC alongside the Patriots, and have seized control of the AFC West, holding a two-game lead over both the Chargers and the Chiefs. Their latest chapter was written on Sunday, when they erased a deficit yet again to beat the Washington Commanders in overtime, 27-26, on a walk-off field goal. <\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Denver Broncos Record-Setting Resilience in One-Score Wars<\/h2><p>No team in the NFL has mastered the art of the close game quite like these Broncos. Denver is now a staggering 8-2 in one-score contests this season- the most such victories in the league- and Sunday&rsquo;s overtime thriller pushed them into the history books. With the win, the Broncos set an NFL record by winning their ninth consecutive game in which they trailed at some point, breaking the previous mark. Even more incredibly, Denver has trailed in all twelve games this year, but have still come away with 10 wins on the season.<\/p><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DRtWfZAESXg\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
