The Denver Broncos caught the league by surprise last season, winning many one-score games and doing all the little things well to earn a 14-3 record that put them at the top of the AFC.
This year, the Broncos won't be able to sneak up on anyone. The team has a first-place schedule and can prepare to get every team's best shot as new challengers look to knock them off their perch.
Brett Kollman, founder of the All 32 YouTube channel and co-host of the Bootleg Football Podcast, recently previewed the season for every team in the league, complete with win-loss predictions.
Kollman begins to talk about the Broncos at about the 54-minute mark of this particular episode and fans should both like and respect what he has to say.
Kollman discusses the team's narrow margins of victory last year and mentions the fact that the team led the league in three-and-out possessions, something that was largely overlooked due to the overall success the team had. He fully recognizes Jaylen Waddle as a big difference-maker, and though he projects a questionable loss to the Carolina Panthers, he ultimately has the Broncos finishing at 11-6 on the season and the No. 2 seed in the AFC, behind only the Buffalo Bills.
He also predicts that the Broncos will win the AFC West for a second season in a row.
With as many doubters as the Broncos seem to have gained this offseason, fans of the team should take that prediction and be quite satisfied. It will be interesting to see how close it comes to being reality.
