When I received the results from the SB Nation mothership for this weeks’ FanPulse, I noticed they had sorted all 32 team blog results by confidence level of each fanbase. The Denver Broncos fanbase were 72% confident in the team, which ranked 19th overall of all 32 NFL teams.

If I am to be honest with myself and case aside my bias, 19th is a pretty respectable and reasonable starting point for a team coming off back-to-back 10+ loss seasons. There are a lot of new faces and plenty of work to do before this franchise will be seen as a contender again.
