14. Denver Broncos (13)

Speaking of teams hoping to put an end to their playoff drought, the Broncos are in a similar situation to the Ravens in which they hope to see their offense make more of an impact during the 2018 season. Ever since Peyton Manning decided to call it a career, Denver has struggled to find a quarterback to rely on after learning the hard way that guys like Brock Osweiler and Trevor Siemian are far from the answer.

Luckily, the Broncos were able to take advantage of the Minnesota Vikings no longer wanting Case Keenum around after signing the quarterback in free agency to help fill their void on offense. Most quarterbacks would love to be part of an offense with weapons like Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders to work with, so it’s going to be fun watching Keenum during his first year in Denver, as they hope to become a threat in the AFC once again.

Taking down the Redskins in their third week of preseason at least gave the Broncos one win to be proud of this preseason to avoid the possibility of going winless. And with Keenum on board, the defense has to be thrilled over the fact that they won’t be feeling as much pressure to carry most of the load.
