There are very few true contenders lined up for a crack at Super Bowl 50 next year, but the Denver Broncos are one veteran-laden team with a legitimate chance to win it all. Here’s 3 reasons why the Denver Broncos can win the Super Bowl this season.
1. Trouble Afoot For The Defending Champs
In case you’ve been in isolation this offseason, the New England Patriots’ 2015 title hopes were partially…deflated…after Tom Brady got hit with a four-game suspension for his role in (hashtag) DeflateGate. While that’s not enough to write the Pats off, it’s enough to open the door for AFC contenders like the Broncos should New England scuffle early on with unproven Jimmy Garoppolo at the helm and fail to make up the ground he ends up losing.
2. Demaryius Thomas Is Demaryius Thomas
If Thomas doesn’t go in the top few picks of your fantasy football draft, it’s a travesty of justice. Demaryius’ breakout 2014 season is only the tip of the iceberg for one of the NFL’s truly elite playmakers. His presence alone and the double teams that will come along with it should open the offense for other impact performers to shine. Add in the all-world stats that he’s bound to put up, and there’s really no chance for opponents to stop Denver's offense for long when he's on the field.
3. Defensive Talent Everywhere
Aqib Talib. Von Miller. DeMarcus Ware. Chris Harris. The Denver Broncos’ 2015 defense will be a cup overflowing with elite, proven commodities. From a pure individual talent perspective, there are very few defenses out there that can hang with the Broncos, let alone offenses. The fact that the unit has had time together to foster cohesion and trust is only going to be icing on the defense's cake of awesomeness.
