I could see DEN going 6-11, or worse, looking at all those pass rushes. Lot of nasty defenses for a young QB.
Somehow, DEN has to win at least half their 50-50 games, like SEA, TB, ATL, LACx2, IND just to get close to .500.
We're going to find out pretty quick if Nix is for real or not.

He will be good or he won't. I'll still take this over any season we've had since Peyton retired. I am optimistic about this season. But "optimistic" doesn't mean winning the Super Bowl. It doesn't necessarily even mean sniffing the playoffs. It's just something to build on - an actual plan.
I was hopeful when we signed Russell Wilson. But by the second game of the first season, you pretty well knew it wasn't going to work. That makes for some long seasons.
