Week 1: Broncos 27 Seahawks 24

On a day where the Broncos showed both sides of a team still trying to find it’s identity, they played mistake free down the stretch and secured a 27-24 win against a very tough Seahawks team, and start the year 1-0.  Early penalties and three Case Keenum interceptions proved almost too difficult to overcome as Denver got caught in a seesaw battle that saw the lead change six different times.  Terrible tackling and early penalties almost doomed this team from the start, but Denver showed a toughness they lacked last year, settled down late, and held on to a late lead with some spectacular defense. Von Miller was an unstoppable force with seven tackles, three sacks, two forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery. The two new rookie running backs, Royce Freeman and Phillip Lindsay, combined for 30 carries and 142 rushing yards, including a clock-eating performance at the end of the game that all but secured the lead and the game. Up next, the hated Oakland Raiders.

2018 AFC West Playoff Odds

The Future Odds for the AFC West’s 2018 season have just been released by OddsShark and the results are not good if you are a Broncos fan. The Broncos are in last place at +275, and their overall AFC rank for the playoffs ranks them 10 out of 16 teams. In other words, not a playoff team. Surprisingly, the Los Angeles Chargers are the early favorites to win the division at -145, followed by the Chiefs at +120 and the Raiders at +165.

Raiders 21 Broncos 14

The Denver Broncos lost their seventh straight game as they fall to the Raiders 21-14. In his season debut, Paxton Lynch performed horribly until he left the game in the third quarter with a leg injury. Trevor Simien came in and led a minor comeback with two late touchdowns but it wasn’t enough.  Denver plays at Miami next week.

Bengals 20 Broncos 17

The Broncos lost again for the sixth straight time to fall to 3-7 on the year. Huge mistakes and turnovers proved costly as Denver couldn’t overcome them and fell to the Bengals 20-17.  Offensive Coordinator Mike McCoy was fired in the aftermath as changes are already being made to improve the struggling offense. The Broncos take on Oakland in their next game.
