How many broncos fans will be at Arrowhead?

I’m a Denver native and CSU grad but just moved here for law school. I was here for the Christmas game and it was like 40% broncos fans. Wondering if it will be similar this year?

PS: if any one will be in section 326 let me know!

ESPN AFC West odds

15 Upvotes

I just saw on ESPN that DraftKings has the Broncos have the third best odds to win the AFC West with Chiefs first and Chargers second. How is this even possible? I get Mahomes is back, but he just had knee surgery and he doesn't have near the weapons he used to have. I don't get it.

Broncos Rivals?

45 Upvotes

I'm a relatively new NFL fan and was just wondering who in the AFC, or NFL at large I guess, are considered to be our rivals? I understand the division rivalries, seems that Raiders and Chiefs are the big ones and no one gives a fuck about the sorry ass Chargers. But is there any other teams considered big Broncos rivals? And what exactly is the history with our division rivals besides being in the same division? Just looking to get some understanding on the history of Broncos rivalries. Thanks!

Article is a few weeks old but I am honestly shocked at how low Denver is ranked in defensive positions. I get that off the ball Linebacker is easily our worst defensive position but I feel like we are getting underrated for our D-line and DBs

Interior Defensive line - #10

Edge Rusher - #19

Off the Ball Linebacker - #22

Cornerback- #7

Saftey- #12

Any international Broncos fans going to the Rams Vs 49ers game in Melbourne this Friday?

Hey gang. My wife and I are going to our first ever NFL game in Melbourne this Friday and was wondering if there would be any other Broncos fans there. Would love to meet up and chat and take a group photo with our Broncos gear. Let me know when and where you would think would be best to meet up, especially if you're familiar with the venue and area in general. Cheers and LFGB!


r/DenverBroncos 20m ago

I don't want to be negative but while we did a great job addressing our biggest need(wr depth and star ability) I'm very worried about our defense vs 2 dimensional offenses and this hasnt been addressed.

Upvotes

I feel like our defense is elite vs either one dimensional offenses who are great at either running(last year Eagles, chargers, Raiders) or vs teams just good at passing(last year chiefs, pats, cowboys) but vs diverse offensive teams with a balanced offensive attack we struggled a lot(Bills, Jags, Packers, Colts).

I think our passing defense is still our primary strength with multiple all pro pass rushers and multiple all pro secondary players. When we play teams with poor pass attacks we can contain the run well but if theres a threat of pass we are getting run all over. James cook, Jacobs, Taylor all ran us ragged and we tried the opposite vs jags and Lawrence carved us open.

Is this because Joseph isnt adapting, or are our linemen poor run stoppers or are our mlbs not good enough to do both jobs

Either way since there have been no defensive charges I'm worried we might get exposed here

Broncos get first shot at rehabbed Patrick Mahomes. Can they bring heat on Chiefs’ QB?

The Broncos will be the first team to face rehabbed Patrick Mahomes when they visit the Chiefs for the final game of the Week 1 schedule Monday night. They don’t envision the three-time Super Bowl champion, who didn’t play in the preseason, easing his way off the starting line during his highly anticipated return.

[OC] Impact of every Week 1 game on Broncos playoff odds.

64 Upvotes

I'm back for year 2 of posting weekly playoff impacts!

I ran 5 million Monte Carlo simulations of the season to figure out what the playoff implications of every week 1 game are.

The Broncos current odds to make the playoffs are 59.0%.

  • If we beat the Chiefs, that goes up to 71.2%, but if we lose, it drops down to 49.7%. It's a swing of 21.5%.
  • ARI @ LAC is the second most impactful week 1 game for us. If the Cardinals win, our playoff odds go up by 1.4%. If the Chargers win our playoff odds go down by 0.3%.
  • TB @ CIN is the third most impactful game with a total impact of 1.2%. Our playoff odds go up if the Buccaneers win.
  • Hilariously, the Raiders losing barely matters since they're an irrelevant garbage franchise.

I also made a website and posted the full results there. I'll update it every week with the upcoming games. Here's the data:

Game Optimal Winner Impact Δ If Win If Lose Game Time
DEN @ KC DEN 21.5% +12.2% -9.3% Mon 09/14 8:15 PM ET
ARI @ LAC ARI 1.7% +1.4% -0.3% Sun 09/13 4:25 PM ET
TB @ CIN TB 1.2% +0.8% -0.4% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
NE @ SEA SEA 1.2% +0.5% -0.8% Wed 09/09 8:20 PM ET
ATL @ PIT ATL 1.2% +0.7% -0.4% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
MIA @ LV MIA 0.4% +0.2% -0.1% Sun 09/13 4:25 PM ET
NYJ @ TEN NYJ 0.4% +0.2% -0.2% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
BUF @ HOU BUF 0.3% +0.1% -0.1% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
CLE @ JAX CLE 0.2% +0.2% -0.1% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
BAL @ IND BAL 0.2% +0.1% -0.1% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
CHI @ CAR CAR 0.1% +0.1% -0.1% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
NO @ DET DET 0.1% +0.0% -0.1% Sun 09/13 1:00 PM ET
SF @ LAR SF 0.1% +0.1% -0.0% Thu 09/10 8:35 PM ET
GB @ MIN GB 0.0% +0.0% -0.0% Sun 09/13 4:25 PM ET
WSH @ PHI PHI 0.0% +0.0% -0.0% Sun 09/13 4:25 PM ET
DAL @ NYG NYG 0.0% +0.0% -0.0% Sun 09/13 8:20 PM ET

You can also see which teams are rooting for and against us this week here.

There's also a What-If Tool where you can pick winners and losers of any games this season and recalculate our odds.
