Broncos 2015 Schedule: Top Five Toughest Games

4. Denver Broncos @ Detroit Lions (Week 3)

This game might have gotten a lot easier for any team going into Detroit with their (huge) losses of Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley on the defensive line.

Still, the Lions are well-coached and have some top level playmakers offensively, and a tough quarterback in Matt Stafford who plays well late in games. Playing indoors will help the Broncos coming on the road, but the Lions are a good team and Calvin Johnson will give Chris Harris Jr., Aqib Talib, and the Broncos’ secondary all they can handle.

The results were also not overly favorable the last time the Broncos faced Golden Tate…

Sorry to bring that up again.

This will be one of the better games on the Broncos’ schedule in 2015.
