As usual in the Peyton Manning era, the Denver Broncos will not only look to make the playoffs this year, but win the Super Bowl as well. Luckily for all of the NFL fans out there who are in pain because the 2015 season seems so far away, the schedules for the upcoming season have finally been released.
Of course, we already knew who the Broncos were going to play, but now we actually know when they will play each team.

It will be interesting to see how the Broncos do without TE Julius Thomas, but something tells me they still have enough firepower to do some damage on the offensive side of the ball. What are you thinking? 11-5 season? 12-4 season? Regardless, Denver should be in the playoffs once again, which is really all that matters.
Here’s to Manning staying healthy for the entire year, and Denver making another go at the Super Bowl.
