How many no-shows will there be?

Sadly, this will be one of the more interesting aspects of this game.

The Broncos have long had one of the best and most passionate fanbases in the league. The team’s home games have traditionally provided a huge advantage due to the loud, boisterous crowds that come to the games.

But for a variety of reasons, there could be a lot of empty seats this Saturday.

Many fans may choose to skip the game, eating the money for already purchased tickets, as a way to boycott the team and let the front office know (mainly George Paton) that this level of mediocrity will not be accepted.

Most Broncos fans seem to agree that it is time to move on from Vic Fangio, and the team could be leaning in that direction.

Because this game was moved to Saturday, there could also be a number of fans who no longer wish to attend as they originally planned to go on Sunday.

The Broncos have never really had an issue attracting fans to the games, which is why they had one of the most impressive sellout streaks in all of sports history.

There are sure to be empty seats on Saturday, the question is, how many?
