Three burning questions in 2022 for Denver Broncos

3. How is this offense going to look?

I suppose this is a burning question but in a good way. I think it’s a foregone conclusion that the Denver Broncos are going to have a really good offense.

But how exactly is this unit going to look? Will Nathaniel Hackett finally let Russell Wilson cook, something he’s always wanted?

Will the offensive line take a step forward, with key players like Dalton Risner and Lloyd Cushenberry needing to perform at a higher level?

How about the receivers? Will Jerry Jeudy silence those who think he’s a bust?

Will Courtland Sutton and Tim Patrick put the rest of the league on notice? How will projected TE1 Albert Okwuegbunam look?

What about Javonte Williams? How many times can we reasonably expect him to carry the ball?

Most of all, can this offense compete with their AFC West foes?

We in Broncos Country are probably leaning towards the optimistic side of these questions, which is fair.

But, there is still a chance that the offense maybe doesn’t play like we thought they could.

Both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020 and Los Angeles Rams in 2021, with their new quarterbacks, had some inconsistent spurts here and there during the season.

I’d also note that both teams just mentioned were not in the first year with a new coaching staff.

The Denver Broncos are. We could be looking at a situation at points during the season where the chemistry just isn’t fully there, not only on offense but on defense too.

I think questions about the right tackle position, edge group, and offense as a whole are the three biggest burning questions for the Denver Broncos going into 2022.
