On the other side, the Denver Broncos lost a lot of key players on the defensive side of the ball, but they still have a very favorable chance of knocking off the Seattle Seahawks. Why is that? Let’s dive into that question.
Seattle Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks were one of the few teams in the league that did not get a single win during the preseason as that losing streak will continue on Sunday night. Why does not winning a single preseason game matter this much to the Seahawks? The Seahawks along with their starting offense played two quarters in each of the last three games but only managed an average of 9 points per game.
Seattle has one of the worst offensive lines in the league, as quarterback and leader of the team Russell Wilson had some trouble carrying the team throughout the preseason. He will without a doubt have some problems on the road against a Denver team that has been great at home to start the season.

Last season, Wilson finished the year off with throwing for almost 4,000 passing yards along with 34 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Every team knows the issue that bolds with the Seahawks as the Broncos will be bringing the pressure all night long.
On the defensive side of the ball, expect the Seahawks to struggle a bit out of the gate, as they will be without cornerback Richard Sherman who is now a San Francisco 49er. The Seahawks are also now running a 4-3 defense but will be without one of the cornerstones of the style Dion Jordan.
This will be a tough challenge for Seattle..
Denver Broncos
The Denver Broncos had a fun offseason this upcoming season as they brought in a new quarterback to lead the team. Denver were hoping they could bring in top free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins, but they managed to land their next best option of Case Keenum who led the Vikings to a game away from entering the Super Bowl.
Keenum may not have the flare some of these other elite quarterbacks have, but he knows how to win and it was showcased in his stints with the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings.

However some bad news during the offseason would be the loss of a key defensive players. The Broncos lost cornerbacks Aqib Talib who was a veteran on the side of the ball, but still are a legit threat on defense.
The Denver Broncos are still a strong team heading into this season, as they have a experienced quarterback who knows the Seattle Seahawks quite too well. Expect that to play a huge factor in this one.
