-The Broncos are back as a national draw with Russell Wilson now their QB. They open the season with FOUR primetime games in the first SIX weeks. That's how it should be in Denver.

-I love that they put the season opener in Seattle on Monday Night Football. Why wait for the Russell Wilson return to Seattle? Plus, I love that it is a regular 8:15pm EST start time instead of a late 10:00 start.

-I hate that the Broncos are going to London to play the Jaguars, and I hate it even more that it is on at 9:30am EST. The last time Denver went to London was 2010 and it was a regular 1:00pm EST start time. I'm not a fan at all of this scenario this year.

-It's better that Denver hosts a Thursday Night game rather than go on the road. That will help them when Indy comes to down in Week 5.

-I feel like the first half of Denver's schedule is very favorable. I think they can definitely be 2-0 or 3-0 right out of the gate. I could see a 6-2 or 5-3 start after the first eight games.

-I like that the bye is right at Week 9 in the middle of the season.

-The back-to-back road games at Carolina and at Baltimore will be tricky in Weeks 12 and 13. That makes the Ravens game a lot harder for them considering that is on the backend of those two road games.

-The Broncos last six games are going to be a gauntlet. Three road games (at Balt, at Rams, at KC) plus home games against KC, Arizona, and the Chargers. That is going to be a rough stretch. They have to hope for 3-3 split those last six games.

-I love the fact that the Broncos are playing on Christmas Day at 4:30 against the Rams. Christmas Day works better for me than Christmas Eve, so I'll take that.

-I always like to see the Broncos finish at home the last game of the regular season, so it was nice to see them host the Chargers in Week 18. We'll see if that will be for a playoff berth or a division title.
