The NFL Releases the Denver Broncos 2017 Schedule
By Tylor Walden
The Denver Broncos know who they will be playing in 2017. Now it is time to see what time and day that they will play their 16 opponents.
Rejoice Broncos Country. It is time for us to dig into the 2017 Schedule.
There have been many leaks as to who the Denver Broncos will pay all throughout the day. However, it becomes official now.
The NFL has released the 2017 Schedule for all 32 teams. Do not forget that the Broncos will be playing the most difficult schedule out of all the teams.
The opponents the Broncos will play are all from the AFC West (twice for each team), AFC East, NFC East, and then the third place finisher from the AFC North and South.
Here is a look at the Denver Broncos schedule.
Week 1- vs. Los Angeles Chargers (MNF) September 11th at 8:15 PM MT (ESPN)
Week 2- vs. Dallas Cowboys September 17th 2:25 PM MT (FOX)
Week 3- at Buffalo Bills September 24th 11:00 AM MT (CBS)
Week 4- vs Oakland Raiders October 1st 2:25 PM MT (CBS)
Week 5- Bye
Week 6- vs, New York Giants (SNF) October 15th at 6:30 PM MT (NBC)
Week 7- at Los Angeles Chargers October 22nd 2:25 PM MT (CBS)
Week 8- at Kansas City Chiefs October 30th 6:30 PM MT (ESPN)
Week 9- at Philadelphia Eagles November 5th 11:00 AM MT (CBS)
Week 10- vs. New England Patriots (SNF) November 12th at 6:30 PM MT (NBC)

Week 14- vs. New York Jets December 10th 2:05 PM MT (CBS)
Week 15- at Indianapolis Colts December 14th 6:25 PM MT (NFLN)
Week 16- at Washington Redskins December 24th 11:00 AM MT (CBS)
Week 17- Kansas City Chiefs December 31st 2:05 PM MT (CBS)
The biggest thing about this schedule is the prime time games. The Broncos have five of them this season. Three of five of which are at home.
I found it interesting that the Broncos open up as the final game of Week One as they play the Los Angeles Chargers. It will be a late one for all of us Broncos fans.
And like last year, the Denver Broncos will play four 11 AM MT games. Get up early for those Broncos Country.
Next: What if Denver does not draft Christian McCaffrey?
From the looks of things, this is a pretty solid schedule. It will not be an easy road due to the difficulty of the schedule. It will be a great test for first year head coach Vance Joseph.
We look forward to seeing you all on Monday September 11th! Go Broncos!
