Week 6: Denver Broncos
So spoiler alert, but the Denver Broncos are probably going to win tonight. The Oakland Raiders have no threatening skill position players outside of maybe Josh Jacobs the rookie RB, but definitely nothing proven.
Focusing on the Broncos though, they have two of the best pass rushers in the NFL in Von Miller and Bradley Chubb, so I will keeping a very close eye on that duo. Behind them isn’t much, but they do have Chris Harris at CB and he is one of the best in the NFL.
Offensively, the Broncos are going to have to rally behind Joe Flacco with Drew Lock on I.R. but that was probably the plan anyway, minus the I.R. part.
Emmanuel Sanders is one of my favorite receivers and his recovery from the Achilles injury is miraculous. He is paired with Courtland Sutton who had a pretty solid year last year that not many people noticed.
Of all the things I am interested to see in this game from the Raiders drama to a potential Jon Gruden explosion, what I really want to see is the Denver Broncos OL.
Houston Oilers Hall of Fame guard, and former Tennessee Titans head coach and offensive line coach, Mike Munchak is taking over the OL in Denver this year and he is one of the best OL coaches in history.
With talent on the roster like Garrett Bolles, Dalton Risner and the sneaky addition of Corey Levin, I want to see if he can make that unit a top-10 group.
If so, then all of the sudden the Broncos may be a sneaky difficult matchup for the Titans, especially since Tennessee will have to travel for that matchup.
