Which NFL team has the best chance to go from worst to first in their division this season? JustinM_NFL says the choice is clear: the Denver Broncos. Here's why. FrontOffice33 | BroncosCountry
. Offensively, the Broncos are set up for immediate success with Wilson now running the show.
New head coach Nathaniel Hackett also feels like an appropriate leader to oversee a new-look Broncos offense. Hackett takes over in Denver after serving as Matt LaFleur’s offensive coordinator with the Green Bay Packers for the previous three campaigns. Hackett has been prepared for this opportunity by working as LaFleur’s understudy in a popular offensive system and scheme that is widely employed by several NFL franchises in today’s league.
The Broncos were solid defensively last season and it’s fair to project a continuation of that success. They finished eighth in yards allowed per contest and third in points allowed per game while often allowing their underperforming offense to hang around in the fourth quarter. The Broncos may miss the outgoing Fangio, but there’s enough talent on the defensive side of the ball to foresee production.
The Broncos didn’t lose any crucial defenders in free agency and managed to add several immediate starters.
