Not many fans think the Broncos are a playoff team in 2024

Not many fans think the Broncos are a playoff team in 2024

The results are in and not very many of us Denver Broncos fans think this team is going very far in 2024.

Earlier this week before the Denver Broncos full regular season schedule was announced, I asked fans if they felt this team looked like a potential playoff team in 2024. The key word there was “potential” and even that wasn’t enough to sway many votes. Only 36% of us think this team has the potential to be a playoff team this season.

This certainly falls into line with how our own internal polling went on [projected wins for the...

What are the most awkward NFL return-to-home stories of all time?

What are the most awkward NFL return-to-home stories of all time?

Sean Payton will return to New Orleans to face the Saints this year, as will Russell Wilson be traveling to Denver to face the Broncos...talk about awkward...but what are some of the other most uncomfortable reunion stories in the NFL?

The NFL regular season schedule for 2024 was released this week, and among the most eyeball-grabbing matchups were the New Orleans Saints, Sean Payton’s former team, heading west to play the Denver Broncos, Payton’s current team, as well as Russell Wilson’s Pittsburgh Steelers traveling west to face the team still paying him a butt load of money just to see...

Predicting wins and losses from the Broncos 2024 schedule

Predicting wins and losses from the Broncos 2024 schedule

Here is my best and most realistic prediction for the wins and losses from the Denver Broncos 2024 regular season schedule.

The Denver Broncos will face a rather brutal gauntlet of games in 2024. Their regular season schedule features three stretches of games that figure to be as difficult as they could be and their Bye Week is so late in the season that fatigue could become a factor for them as well.

That said, I remember analyzing the schedule in May of 2023 and felt like they would run through the first month of the season before hitting a...

Denver Broncos 2024 Draft class could be Sean Payton’s foundation

Denver Broncos 2024 Draft class could be Sean Payton’s foundation

When it comes to the foundation of the Denver Broncos going forward, the 2024 NFL rookie class could be the starting point that Sean Payton hopes to build on.

Could Denver Broncos rookie class be foundation for Sean Payton?

When Sean Payton took the head coaching gig for the Denver Broncos in 2023, he came into the mix right before the Super Bowl, in the middle of free agency meetings, and just a month and a half out from that draft.

Without a first and second-round pick, Payton’s hands were tied a little bit. Denver’s top picks were Marvin...

Quarterbacks with small hands don’t fumble more than quarterbacks with big hands

Quarterbacks with small hands don’t fumble more than quarterbacks with big hands

Bo Nix has big hands, but that doesn’t mean he will be better at holding onto the ball than JJ McCarthy who has tiny mitts.

New Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has some of the largest hands of the QBs in the 2024 draft at 10 1/8”, but Joe Milton (10 1/5”) and Michael Penix (10 1/2”) have larger hands. Penix has some of the largest hands ever for a QB at the combine. Of NFL QBs who have started a game, only Juck Druckenmiller, Ryan Mallett, Nick Foles, Cody Kessler, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Will Levis and Dak Prescott have bigger...

Broncos have one of the toughest strength of schedules in 2024

Broncos have one of the toughest strength of schedules in 2024

Despite picking highly in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos did not benefit much from the strength of schedule ending up with one of the toughest in the NFL.

The Denver Broncos had their 2024 regular season schedule released yesterday and it is definitely looking pretty brutal on paper. That could change by the time these games come around, but I still don’t think I could have picked a worse schedule of games for a team.

Looking over a Sharp Football Analysis, their strength of schedule confirms that Denver has one of the more brutal schedules based on forecasted...

Horse Tracks: Mystique and optimism surround Denver Broncos after schedule release

The Denver Broncos and every team in the National Football League released their schedules yesterday. Here are some of my early thoughts on the matter and what to look forward to in 2024.

Good morning, Broncos Country.

The Denver Broncos and their National Football League counterparts release their schedules for the 2024 season. In case you missed it, here is the full slate of games for the Broncos. From what I’ve gathered, a good portion of fans are skeptical about Denver’s ability to compete in 2024. There are a lot of good reasons to have reservations, but I might be...

Broncos open 4.5-point road underdogs to Seahawks in Week 1

The Denver Broncos will open road underdogs in Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks.

The Denver Broncos will open the season on the road in Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, oddsmakers have given the home team a 4.5-point advantage making Denver the underdog. The over/under stands at 43. This spread dropped just minutes after the official Broncos 2024 schedule dropped.

This spread seems like it could grow further in Seattle’s advantage given that Denver will likely be starting a rookie quarterback in Bo Nix or even worse having Zach Wilson be the Week 1 starter...

Broncos 2024 schedule: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

Here is the good, the bad, and the ugly from the Denver Broncos 2024 regular season schedule that released today.

The NFL has announced its 2024 regular season schedule and the Denver Broncos were seemingly a target for retribution by the schedule-makers. If you could sit down and create a worse lineup for Denver than the one they received this year, please do share. It seems every stretch of games this season comes with some pain and brutality. Even so, I was able to find at least two good things to point out to go with the rest that were...
