I have them at 2-14. The don;t seem to be that great of a team. Weak defense that didn;t improve much. The QB situation is still up in the air. They have tough schedule. Not a good year for Denver.

I got them checking out at a solid 4-12 under new QB Tim Tebow & Company. Some things always hold true for the Broncos: tough a home, tough against divisional foes. Got them splitting with KC/OAK and taking care of the Lions at home.


Detriot

Denver can't run the ball. IF you can;t run the ball the Lions defense will destroy you. Just ask the Packers.

As for the other side of the ball Denver is one of the worst against the pass. Detriot will be able to throw on them. I see this game being a blow out in Detriots favor.

Oakland and Kansas

Oakland and Kansas can run the ball. They were two of the best in the league and have two of the most explosive backs in the league.

Denver can;t stop the run. Von Miller will help a little but I see Charles and DMac having huge days.

Unless they get unjured I don;t see Denver winning even with Nnamdi gone.

Buffalo

Neither of these teams can run or stop the run so this will come down to who can pass the ball better.

Broncos are the better passing team. Even with Tebow they are better at throwing the ball because they have better recievers than the Bills.

This will be a close one.


Forfeited Turn


Summerizing:

-Detriot will kill the QB if you can;t run and are forced to pass.

-Oakland and KC will be able to run all over Denver.

-Denver will win because they have a better recieveing core and both QBs/run games are not that great.

Ouch. Tebow won't be that bad.

4-12, 5-11 probably. They'll beat the Bengals (who are a 3 win team), and maybe Minnesota.

2-14 isn't out of the question. But I think that D is going to do fairly well. Von Miller and Elvis Dumervil will wreak havoc on offensive lines. I'd say 3-13 would be my pick.

With the 3rd W being @ Miami.

Ouch...

That schedule is brutal, for a team that is average (at best). As I was reading it...I was thinking the same thing...3-13.

But - the NFL is funny...injuries, fluke plays, teams that forget to "show up", or overlook a team like Denver. So, maybe 4 wins isn't out of the question.

Tampa played a lot better than they were predicted to do before last season.

Either 2-14 or 4-12 puts them sqarely in the mix for the Andrew Luck Sweepstakes. I don't know that 4-12 will be quite bad enough to lock it up, though.

If they keep Orton they can win 6 to 9 games and possibly be in the mix for the playoffs down the stretch. If Tebow plays they will win about 3 or 4 games and just miss out on getting Luck.
