Thread: 2018 Broncos Forums Regular Season Predictions

If you had asked me prior to Saturday I would have optimistically said 12-4.

We'll be lucky to win 5 games, this team has 12-4 talent, but they don't have the talent to overcome the coaching staff. This year isn't going to be pretty on any level.

The talent on defense doesn't even matter this year. Woods is so bad at DC that this defense has gone to crap. We're crappy on both sides of the ball IMO.

It wasn't even the poor play that killed my optimism, it was the fact that the team looked unprepared.

We looked just as flat as we did all last year, this coaching staff hasn't improved even slightly. I believe VJ even said at one point in the week that we hadn't gameplaned for the Vikings...VJ is an awful coach, until he's gone, it doesn't matter how much talent we have on this roster, it's going wasted.

Nobody game-plans for a pre-season game. That's not what they are for.

But, the point remains. VJ was not the right choice. They should have signed Kyle Shanahan who is looking like a great coach in SF right now.

They were ranked #3 last season in defense.

i'm sticking with my 6-10 prediction. . . i like a lot of the off-season roster moves we made, but i have zero confidence that this coaching staff is capable of getting it done. . .

Hope like hell you are wrong, but my head says you are right.

Yup when you complain so much you end up losing sight of facts, Broncos and joe woods defense was top 5 in every category, they were also 18 in points which says we were big play prone on defense. Chubb Miller gotsis wolfe will change alot of that.

I predict the Broncos will be 12-4

Barring any major injuries.

9-7 floor; 11-5 ceiling

9-7 Or 10-6 Depends on how good Case is playing.

I wish I could be as optimistic as you. For us to hit 9-7 they would have to fire VJ after the preseason game this weekend and somehow bring Bill Cowher out of retirement.

I'll also go 6-10 for the same reason as some others - no faith in either VJ or Woods.

The last draft was a good one, but it's seeming less likely Chubb makes as big an immediate impact as hoped. Hindsight should be interesting on whether that should have been a QB. Could be a lot of mediocrity for awhile in Denver.

I see the Broncos winning a game or 2 against playoff caliber teams.
