Predicting remaining games for Broncos following bye week
Week 15 vs. Arizona Cardinals
In a battle of teams that should be better than they are, the Cardinals might have even more issues than Denver does.
Kyler Murray has been up and down all year and head coach Kliff Kingsbury seems to be a name on the hot seat. Where will Nathaniel Hackett be on the hot-seat level by this point in the season?
This will be one of those games where each team tries to give it away a few times, similar to when the Broncos played the Indianapolis Colts earlier this season, but this time the Broncos will come out on top.
Pick: Broncos 23, Cardinals 21
Record: 6-8
Week 16 at Los Angeles Rams
A Christmas Day game against the defending champs is what awaits the Broncos here, though this game does not seem anywhere near as difficult as it did when the schedule came out.
That is because the Rams have struggled this season and may not even make the playoffs after winning it all last year. That said, they will likely still have something to play for at this point in the season while the Broncos’ chances will be on their last legs.
Pick: Rams 19, Broncos 16
Record: 6-9
