    Default Broncos Gameday Thread: Broncos vs Seahawks 08-07-14

    So I guess there are 3 things to say:
    1. Glad a new season is starting
    2. No injuries pls
    3. GO BRONCOS!

    Not sure anything about scheduling and am sure this has already been covered, but why is Denver playing a team in the preseason that they play in the regular season?

    I don't know a definitive answer, but a lot of it has to do with travel times in the preseason. I think the NFL tries to keep travel distances down during preseason so you play teams in your geographical area.

    I think west coast teams want to travel shortly and save times. Same thing for Denver.

    Well...at least no one else started this thread. Off to a good start already.

    Sorry, that was a typo. Meant to say "too scarred to post this"

    I'm excited to actually see this team play - it's been too long. I wish it weren't the Seahawks, but whatever. No injuries is the biggest thing. Let's do this!

    Why do the Broncos play the Patriots every year? Weird.

    Why do they have to travel to NE for the third straight year, that's what bothers me. Last time they were in Denver for reg season was with TT.
