Week 4 TNF Pick

 Pittsburgh (-3) over CLEVELAND 

Broncos-Rams and Week 3 Picks

The Broncos rebounded with a strong second half last week in the Week 2 win over Jacksonville. Down 13-3, Denver made a comeback to win the game 20-13. It was a game that was very reminiscent of a lot of last year's games. Now, the schedule gets even tougher. The Rams, fresh off a win over the Giants, come into Denver for Sunday Night Football. This is one of the marquee games of the weekend, and it will be an interesting measuring point for this Broncos team. I expect a close game, but I think the Rams will be too much for Denver in this one.

Prediction: Rams (-2.5) over DENVER

Final Score: Rams-26 Broncos-20

Broncos-Jaguars and Week 2 Picks

The Broncos got absolutely embarrassed Monday night in the 2026 opener at Kansas City. The 31-10 loss was really disappointing. When you wait almost eight months for the season to start, and then your team comes out and gives a performance like the Broncos gave in that game is really discouraging. There's no way around it. A lot of people will overreact to Week 1, and it does tend to fool people, but I am worried about the Broncos. Their first six games doesn't give them time to figure things out. It won't get any easier this week when the Jaguars come to Denver. Jacksonville buried the Broncos 34-17 last year in December in Denver, and the Jags won their first game at home in convincing fashion. I would expect Denver to play better in this game, but I don't think it will be enough. I think the Jags will come to Denver and win again.

Prediction: Jacksonville (+2.5) over DENVER

Final Score: Jaguars-31 Broncos-20

Broncos-Chiefs and Week 1 Picks

The Broncos open up the 2026 season on the road in Arrowhead Stadium against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. This is a tough opener in my opinion. Patrick Mahomes, who tore his ACL on December 14th in a game against the Chargers, is going to start this game after recovering from knee surgery this offseason. It is pretty remarkable that Mahomes is ready to go for the opener. For reference, Micah Parsons tore his ACL on the same day and he is out the first four games of this season at least. If you are Denver, you have to expect the full level of Mahomes. If he wasn't there, then I can't see how KC would put him out there. In any case, I think Mahomes will play well and it will probably inspire his team. The crowd will be fired up and that will pose a problem for Denver. I haven't like this matchup since the day the schedule came out, and nothing has changed my opinion. I think Denver has the better overall team, but I have a feeling this night will belong to Mahomes

Prediction: KANSAS CITY (-2.5) over Denver

Final Score: Chiefs-27 Broncos-20
