Recognized by many as a team on the rise, the Denver Broncos will have plenty to prove in 2020.

The Broncos have turned some heads with the moves they have made this offseason and coming off a promising finish with a rookie quarterback to the 2019 season, the growing belief is that the team can get back into playoff contention sooner rather than later.

For teams on the cusp of being contenders, there will naturally be some players on the team that must step up and prove the naysayers wrong. Whenever there is hope, there is generally just as much skepticism.

There will be skeptics over this Broncos team. How can they win the division when the Kansas City Chiefs also play in the AFC West? How can there be so much hope surrounding a quarterback that has only started five games? How will this team compete without adding another tackle to the offensive line?

Do these questions sound familiar? Every team faces questions during the offseason and these are the ones most commonly attached to the Broncos.

The answers to these questions could lie within the players mentioned in this article. Each of these guys has something to prove this year and each of them has critics that they would love to silence.
