The Denver Broncos are ready to return from their bye week and sit at 3-6 heading into the second half of their 2019 season. Fans are still riding high after a win over the Cleveland Browns, which featured a new quarterback in Brandon Allen.
Several questions remain for the rest of this season, including how many more games the team will win. But before we get into that part, let’s look at some of the other key questions.
How much longer should Allen hold onto the starting job? Much of that answer likely lies within what the team decides to do with Drew Lock. Will the second-round pick play at all this season?
Will the offensive line, specifically Garett Bolles, ever start to play at a consistent level, or will this unit again be one of the big question marks going into next season?
When are the quarterback and offensive line spots not going to be big question marks for this team? How many games can the team win with those question marks the rest of this season?
Going over the team’s remaining schedule, we attempt to answer that final question.
Week 11 at Minnesota Vikings
Despite the Broncos being well-rested coming off the bye week, they have to travel to Minnesota to face a surging Vikings team.
Minnesota has a stout rushing attack and a good defense. This looks and feels like an unlikely win for the Broncos.
Prediction: Vikings 24, Broncos 13
Record: 3-7
