Broncos' 2024 game-by-game prediction

The Broncos lose at the Seahawks for the second time in as many meetings

Week 1: Broncos at Seahawks

The last time these two teams met, it was Russell Wilson's return to Seattle. The Seahawks won that game, and they repeat the feat in the Broncos' first game without him, 17-15.

Week 2: Broncos vs. Steelers

Another close loss, this time 18-15 against the Steelers.

Week 3: Broncos at Buccaneers

That makes two losses at NFC teams, as Baker Mayfield leads the Buccaneers to a 29-21 victory. Antoine Winfield Jr., the league's highest-paid defensive back, intercepts the Broncos' last drive.

Week 4: Broncos at Jets

A win, finally, as the Broncos travel to East Rutherford and defeat Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, 26-18.

Week 5: Broncos vs. Raiders

Reality sets back in and they are routed 33-19 by the Raiders in their first intradivision game.

Week 6: Broncos vs. Chargers

Make that consecutive blowout losses at Empower Field against divisional rivals, as Jim Harbaugh's Chargers come to town and put up a monstrous 33 points while allowing only 17.

Week 7: Broncos at Saints

In just their second win of the season so far, the Broncos manage to hold off the collapsing Saints, 28-19.

Week 8: Broncos vs. Panthers

A home win and a winning streak at last, as the Broncos escape with a 17-15 decision against Bryce Young's Panthers

Week 9: Broncos at Ravens

Sitting at 3-5, the Broncos fail to capitalize on their newfound momentum, losing 25-18 at Lamar Jackson's Ravens.

Week 10: Broncos at Chiefs

The first meeting against the defending Super Bowl champions results in a 24-17 defeat.

Week 11: Broncos vs. Falcons

Kirk Cousins and the Falcons put on an absolute offensive masterclass, rushing and passing their way to a 39-24 rout.

Week 12: Broncos at Raiders

Same opponent, same result. The Broncos lose 19-17.

Week 13: Broncos vs. Browns

Another loss at home, this time 20-16 to the Cleveland Browns.

Week 14: Bye

A much-needed rest period.

Week 15: Broncos vs. Colts

The rest proves beneficial, as the Broncos hold off the Colts, 23-21.

Week 16: Broncos at Chargers

Same opponent, same result. The Broncos lose 32-20.

Week 17: Broncos at Bengals

In a sizable upset, the Broncos defeat the Bengals via a game-winning field goal by Wil Lutz.

Week 18: Broncos vs. Chiefs

Same opponent, same result. The Broncos lose 17-15, the same score as their first game.
