Thread: Regular Season Prediction Thread

Dominant defense will abound again in the Mile High city. The offensive line will be much improved, and the Broncos will have real NFL caliber coaches. The only drawback to this season is that the team is learning a new system on both sides of the ball.

After a slow start to the season, the Broncos go 12-4 and are the team that no one wants to face in the playoffs.

I'm gonna say 9-7 with a chance of a wild card.

I'm so excited.

I see 8-8 to 9-7. The defensive improvements look great on paper and should give offenses lots of problems - but I'd have to imagine it will take some time to find the offense to find itself with a new QB, Sanders coming back from the achilles, whatever Lindsey's status winds up being early, and Fant new to the NFL.

First five games are Raiders away, Bears at home, Packers away, Jags at home, and the Bolts in their laughingstock of a soccer stadium. I think they drop 3 of these games and hover around .500 all year with that start and are on the outside looking in on the playoffs.

Wild card is Flacco, obviously. If he comes out hot and with a chip on his shoulder, bonds with Sutton and Fant immediately - with the defense in place it could get a lot more interesting. The odds are against it though.

I’ve said 8-8 for the last two years and I was apparently too optimistic. I’m sticking with that again though. Can’t see Flacco doing much better than that

I honestly can see anywhere from 7-9 to 10-6. Injuries are, of course, the great equalizer.

6-10

We’ll be a run heavy team with great D. 10-6

8-8, we have young talent at the skill positions on Offense but you never know how they will perform in the beginning of their careers. The defense will keep us in games, but I see some missed opportunities on offense in critical situations just due to the youth at WR and RB/TE.
