Last season, Sean Payton was, to many in Broncos Country, an annoyance, an abrasive overrated leader who failed to deliver. This season he is Mike Shanahan 2.0.

Before Sean Payton arrived, the Denver Broncos had an eight-game losing streak to the Las Vegas Raiders, which was snapped earlier this year when the Broncos beat the Raiders 34-18 at home

Like in the two teams' first meeting, the Raiders built an early lead over the Broncos. But, Las Vegas couldn't sustain it. Denver used a pair of second-half turnovers to turn the tide in their Week 12 victory over the Raiders.

We take a look at the studs and duds from the Broncos' fourth win in six games. Lutz contributed 17 points to the Broncos, including field goals of 38, 53, 54, 45, 33 yards and two extra points. Lutz and the field goal unit have been exceptional since the game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Sunday the Raiders hosted the Broncos to Allegiant Stadium. These are some of the top images captured by photographers.
