The Broncos are 3-2 after a hard-fought 23-17 win over the winless Chargers last week in LA. Now, they return home to Denver on a short week to take on the 3-2 Seahawks. This is a tough game for the Broncos. Obviously, a short week of preparation doesn't help Denver and their struggling offense. Bo Nix has not played well this season, and it seems like a lot to ask for him to suddenly catch fire playing that Seattle defense-even at home. Plus, the Broncos are dealing with a lot of injury issues right now. Pat Surtain and Talanoa Hufanga are both out of this game with ankle injuries, and Riley Moss is questionable. I said before the season that if Denver was 3-3 after their first six games, then they would be in good shape for the rest of the season. They have played a brutal schedule to start the year, and the Seahawks might be their toughest test. I think the Broncos will be able to go on a winning streak after this game, but I would be very surprised if they won tonight.
Prediction: Seattle (-2.5) over DENVER
Final Score: Seahawks-20 Broncos-7
