The Broncos finished the 2019 season with a 7-9 record. And if one oddsmaker is to be believed, Denver should be right about at that mark in 2020.
The Broncos are favored in just five games this upcoming season and are a pick ’em in two others, according to BetOnline.ag. Denver’s best matchup is a home game against the Miami Dolphins, in which it’s a five-point favorite. On the opposite side of the coin, the Broncos are an 11½-point underdog to the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.
