Former Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay has high expectations for the team following their appearance in the AFC Championship game in 2025. However, oddsmakers currently are not looking highly on the Broncos as Super Bowl contenders, as 11 teams have better odds than Denver to win it all this season.
"BB, that's disrespectful, man; that's straight disrespect from the oddsmakers there," Lindsay said on Denver Sports 104.3 The Fan. "And I understand why. You had a bunch of one-point games that you win. You say, 'Hey, they're not going to do that again.' If they're in these tight games, it's not gonna always be where the Denver Broncos pull it out and they win. And Bo Nix has that magic like Tim Tebow used to have.
"But also, it's like for the oddsmakers, what are you looking at? This team is well-put together. This team is back and you have a lot of the same players; actually pretty much every player that was there last year is back. And then you added Jaylen Waddle to the mix, who's this dynamic weapon that's explosive... (with everyone returning) the Denver Broncos should be the favorite to win the ***** Super Bowl!"

Outside of a brutal six-game stretch to start the season, there is no reason the Broncos cannot return to the top of the AFC playoff picture, in contention to compete for a Super Bowl in 2026.
