Although it is a long shot, with their continued win streak, the Broncos have a chance to become the 4th team ever to start off a season 1-5 and make the playoffs (alien.top)

In recent memory, the Chiefs did it in 2015 ending the season 11-5 and the Colts did it in 2018 ending the season 10-6. Both going 1-1 in the playoffs.

Although the AFC is a tight race if the Broncos continue their win streak and lose 1 or maybe 2 games (depending on how the rest of the AFC plays out)

They very well have a great shot of making the playoffs.

Their remaining schedule is:

Vikings

Browns

Texans

Chargers

Lions

Patriots

Chargers

Raiders

It’s not the hardest schedule and they more than likely have enough room to drop 2 games (Lions being the best case loss)

Again it’s a long shot, but if they can continue their momentum (and not miss as much FG’s) we may witness this be the 2nd half of the season up and coming playoff sleeper

I hope the Broncos get really close and the Raiders knock their asses out in week 18

We were talking about Raiders Broncos being the Caleb Williams bowl.

My bold prediction, winner of that game goes to the playoffs.

if they continue to win the turnover battle 4-1 or 5-1 i can see it happening

I think to myself "no"

They've got as much chance as the other 7 teams fighting for 3 playoff spots. The last couple weeks of the regular season are going to be fantastic if there's still a ton of teams in contention.

Sean Payton feeling smug as fuck right now lmao. What a turnaround

They've got some interesting games coming up. I doubt they beat the Raiders or Lions. Vikings, Browns and Texans are tossups. The Chargers are a team I can never predict.

They could win 10 games, they could win 6.

They might only WIN two more games, calm down

[–] Looscannon994@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

None of the remaining games are all that easy outside of the Patriots. But at the same time, none of the remaining games are completely unwinnable either.

After starting 1-5, I'd be happy finishing 8-9 or 9-8 with some good vibes heading into next season.
