After nearly reaching the Super Bowl last season, the Denver Broncos are considered by many to be one of the top contenders to get to the big game this coming season.
That won't come easily. The Broncos will play a first-place schedule this year and last year's fortune of winning so many one-score games is bound to go the other way at some point. While 14 wins may be a tough hill to climb this year, the Broncos are a battle-tested squad that can beat any team in the league in a playoff setting.
But when will their first loss in 2026 come?
John Breech of CBS Sports recently took a look at the schedule and predicted when each team would suffer its first loss of the season. Broncos Country won't like this, but Breech predicts that to happen right out of the gate for Denver. He has the Broncos losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1 on Monday Night Football.
"With Patrick Mahomes coming back from a torn ACL, there is a small chance that he won't be back yet for this game, but if he's on the field, it's hard to pick against a Chiefs team that will be opening the season at home in primetime," wrote Breech for CBS.
