There are certain things that could happen where the 2020 season could go very wrong for the Denver Broncos.

That song “See You Again” by Charlie Puth pops up into my mind sometimes when I think about how long it has been since the Denver Broncos have been to the playoffs.

It’s been a long day without you, my friend.

It’s also been quite a rocky road since the 2015 team closed out the season with a Super Bowl 50 victory in February of 2016. Peyton Manning and DeMarcus Ware retired. Gary Kubiak stepped down due to health concerns. It is almost like when the ’90s Bulls broke up.

For the Broncos to get back to the playoffs, there are things that just cannot happen. Certain things will just crush the team’s hope and dreams of reaching the playoffs for a fifth-straight season.

Hopefully, things go better with a starting quarterback in place. We can’t wait for the 2020 season!
