Why do the Denver Broncos have so many NFL Primetime games?

The Denver Broncos are all set to have another prime-time game when they face the Los Angeles Chargers in the week 6 game on Monday night. The Broncos have not had a stellar season this year and are currently 2-3 in the league.

In five weeks, they have already played three prime-time games against the Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers, and Indianapolis Colts.

They started the season on a Monday night where they lost to the Seahawks, 16-17. The next prime-time game came in week three as the Broncos faced the 49ers on a Sunday night and won their second game of the season. They recently featured in a Thursday Night football game last week against the Colts where they suffered a 9-12 loss.

With the Broncos already playing three prime-time games, they are once again ready for their fourth one as they face the Chargers on Monday.

How many more prime-time games Broncos are left to play this season?

The Denver Broncos were scheduled to have five prime-time games during the 2022 season, out of which they played three of them. Moreover, they also have seven nationally televised games this season of which three have already been played.

So now the Broncos are left with two prime-time games and four more nationally televised games on deck. Broncos fans are more than happy to see their team regularly in prime-time, but the team's performance has led them to think otherwise.

The Denver Broncos will play their fifth prime-time game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, December 12th.

Many fans are trolling the Broncos on Twitter about their poor performances and are wondering why the NFL has so many prime-time games scheduled for the Broncos.

Why Denver Broncos have so many prime-time games this season?

Prime-time games are one of the most important aspects of the NFL schedule as the league puts certain teams in it which gets the greater limelight. Not only when the games are being played, but also which teams play in prime-time and who features the most number of times in a season.

This season, 12 teams have been tied with a maximum of five primetime games: the Bills, Bengals, Broncos, Buccaneers, Chargers, Chiefs, Cowboys, Eagles, Packers, Patriots, Steelers, Rams, and 49ers.

The NFL thought the Denver Broncos would be worthy of playing as many prime-time games this season, but the team has been performing poorly so far. The Broncos signed new quarterback Russell Wilson to take charge of their team and will look to return to the Playoffs for the first time since 2015.

Can the Broncos make the most out of the two prime-time games left this season and give their fans a show to remember?
