Broncos boast lower over-under wins total than Chiefs, Chargers. Is that a mistake?

Despite early signs that Denver’s defense and run game could be stronger, sportsbooks still aren’t projecting a big jump for the Broncos’ season win total. The Broncos are listed at an over-under of 9.5 wins, lower than figures for the Chiefs and Chargers, even with optimism after the preseason opener. In Atlanta, Denver’s starters—without Bo Nix, Jaylen Waddle and J.K. Dobbins—limited the Falcons and generated strong grading from Pro Football Focus. The discussion pivots to early-down efficiency and Denver’s improvement in one-score games, along with the potential impact of rookie back Jonah Coleman, who is drawing comparisons to Maurice Jones-Drew for his power.
