Denver Broncos’ Starting Lineups Predicted by NFL.com
The Denver Broncos are poised to take the league by storm in 2022, armed with Russell Wilson at quarterback and an lively, modern head coach in Nathaniel Hackett. Wilson may be an Eleventh-year veteran however the Broncos are literally fairly a younger staff throughout the board.
Nonetheless, as a result of skilled personnel savvy of GM George Paton, the Broncos have a well-placed veteran at each degree of the staff to stability out what relative youth and inexperience would possibly predominate.
This staff has a number of beginning jobs up for grabs on either side of the ball. NFL.com’s Gregg Rosenthal lately projected Denver’s beginning lineup on each offense and protection and there have been one or two noteworthy distinctions.
Let’s dive in.
Offense
- QB: Russell Wilson
- RB: Javonte Williams
- WR: Courtland Sutton
- WR: Jerry Jeudy
- WR: Tim Patrick
- TE: Albert Okwuegbunam
- LT: Garett Bolles
- LG: Dalton Risner
- C: Graham Glasgow
- RG: Quinn Meinerz
- RT: Billy Turner
Protection
- DE: Dre’Mont Jones
- DE: D.J. Jones
- OLB: Randy Gregory
- OLB: Bradley Chubb
- OLB: Malik Reed (huh?)
- ILB: Josey Jewell
- CB: Patrick Surtain II
- CB: Ronald Darby
- CB: Ok’Waun Williams
- S: Justin Simmons
- S: Kareem Jackson

Evaluation
You will be aware that Rosenthal has the Broncos working with three-wide receiver units on a majority foundation. That is possible how it is going to shake out, therefore the third beginning wideout, however Hackett is anticipated to deploy loads of two-tight finish units and even two-back units with a fullback to steer block.
Other than that, the one issues to jot down residence about offensively in Rosenthal’s projections are Williams holding down the beginning job over veteran Melvin Gordon and Graham Glasgow unseating two-year incumbent Lloyd Cushenberry III at middle.
Glasgow being the middle is extra a mirrored image of Meinerz being in demand by this teaching employees than it’s of the previous’s prowess. Cushenberry is susceptible to having his job taken, although, as his first two years within the league, regardless of his ironman availability, have been lackluster.

That is the beginning 5 upfront I foresee the Broncos rolling with to open the season, too. Cushenberry merely hasn’t lower the mustard, Meinerz is simply too good to sit down on the bench, and Glasgow is a savvy vet with expertise beginning at middle throughout his days in Detroit.
As for the protection, I am undecided what Rosenthal is considering by putting Chubb, Gregory, and Reed within the beginning lineup contemplating they’re all rush linebackers. New defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero is not going to run NASCAR pass-rush packages on a down-in, down-out foundation.
That is mainly a dime’d NASCAR lineup and whereas I count on the Broncos to throw seems to be like this at opponents every so often, this package deal shouldn’t be going to outpace the staff’s nickel unit, which can embody two down linemen, two rush linebackers, and both two off-ball linebackers, or one inside ‘backer and a dime-backer.
This is a greater stab at what the Broncos’ true beginning lineup in 3-4 base protection would possibly appear like come September.
- D-Line: Dre’Mont Jones (DE), D.J. Jones (NT), Eyioma Uwazurike (DE)
- OLB: Bradley Chubb, Randy Gregory
- ILB: Josey Jewell, Baron Browning
- CB: Patrick Surtain II, Ronald Darby
- FS: Justin Simmons
- SS: Kareem Jackson
Nonetheless the personnel/package deal math performs out, one factor is for certain. Glancing over Denver’s projected beginning lineups, this staff is well-balanced with expertise.
The Broncos will go so far as Wilson’s quarterbacking, and Hackett’s comparatively inexperienced teaching employees, will take them. Nonetheless, this staff has the potential for a real worst-to-first end within the stacked AFC West this yr.

The Raiders could be up two scores. Instead, Pat Surtain II happened.
With the Raiders leading 10-3 and with a first down at the Denver 5, quarterback Gardner Minshew made a horrible decision. He tried to hit Brock Bowers, and Surtain caught the ball in the end zone and went untouched to the other end zone.
The 100-yard pick-six has tied the game 10-10.
Minshew is 10-of-12 for 116 yards with a touchdown and the pick. He hit Bowers for a 57-yard score.
Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix is 4-of-6 for 43 yards.

The Broncos had a tough start to the season, losing to the Seattle Seahawks and Pittsburgh Steelers. However, rookie Bo Nix found some rhythm in Week 3, leading to a big win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Last week, the offense stumbled once again, but the defense stood tall against Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. Despite Denver only reaching the endzone once, it was enough to come away with a 10-9 win. The goal for the Broncos this season is to show signs of improvement after a tough 2023 season. It looks like the team is on the right path.
The Raiders have the expectations to stay around the playoff picture. It certainly has been an up-and-down start to their season. After losing to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1, Las Vegas rallied back to upend the Baltimore Ravens. However, the Raiders then lost to the Carolina Panthers in Week 3, before bouncing back to beat the Cleveland Browns last Sunday. Gardner Minshew has been okay at quarterback, but it comes down to how strong the Raiders’ defense is in determining if they have a chance to win.
Since their first meeting in 1960, the Raiders are 73-54-2 against the Broncos, winning each of the last eight matchups.
MY PICK: Broncos win, 20-18

Colorado Mesa hands Colorado Mines first RMAC loss in three years with stunning fourth-quarter rally
The Colorado School of Mines football team’s three-year RMAC win streak ended in the same place the last one did — inside Stocker Stadium on the Western Slope.
Colorado Mesa quarterback Liu Aumavae threw a pair of touchdown passes in the fourth quarter, and the Mavericks rallied from 13 points down to upset fourth-ranked Mines, 14-13, and claim the Nyikos Cup on Saturday.
A two-point conversion put the Mavericks (3-2, 2-1 RMAC) over the top, with Sam Horneck getting it done on a reverse option pass that handed Mines (4-1, 2-1 RMAC) its first RMAC loss in three years.
The Orediggers’ last conference defeat also came at Colorado Mesa — a 26-21 loss on Oct. 23, 2021, that ended a 14-game conference win streak. Mines won 23 straight RMAC games after that en route to two NCAA Division II championship game trips. But after playing with fire in back-to-back narrow road wins to start the season, the Orediggers were unable to stave off the Mavericks on Saturday.
Mines quarterback Evan Foster hooked up with Max McLeod for a 10-yard touchdown in the first quarter to open the scoring. McLeod finished with seven catches for 92 yards, breaking Brody Oliver’s program record of 4,010 career receiving yards in the process.
A punt block set up the Orediggers at the Mavs’ 9-yard line in the second quarter. Three plays later, Landon Walker dove into the end zone for a 13-0 lead after Mines missed the point-after attempt.
The Orediggers didn’t score again, however, as Foster was sacked five times and finished 14-of-30 passing for 159 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions.
Aumavae found Trevin Edwards for a 6-yard touchdown on the first play of the fourth quarter, but the PAT was blocked by Jaden Healy to keep the Orediggers’ lead at 13-6.
After Mines punted on its next possession, CMU chewed up 5 minutes, 41 seconds of clock with an 11-play, 98-yard march that ended with Aumavae connecting with Quezon Villa for a 9-yard score. After the trick play two-point conversion gave CMU a 14-13 lead, Mines had two possessions to drive for the winning score but came up empty both times. A strip sack recovered by the Mavericks ended the game.
