Here's what EA Sports had to say about the Denver Broncos --

DENVER BRONCOS:

How can the Broncos possibly improve an offense that shattered records in 2013? Five-time MVP is back as the top-rated quarterack in Madden 15. Despite the loss of Eric Decker in free agency, the Broncos still have an embarrasment of pass-catching riches in DeMaryius Thomas, Wes Welker, Julius Thomas and newly acquired Emmanuel Sanders. On the ground, the Broncos must get improvements from Montee Ball andRonnie Hillman to account for the loss of Knowshon Moreno.

After being shredded by Russell Wilson and Co. in Super Bowl XLVIII, the Broncos addressed the defensive side of the ball by bringing in veterans DeMarcus Ware (90 OVR) and Aqib Talib (90 OVR) to help shore up the pass rush and secondary respectively. In the trenches, defensive tackle Terrance Knighton (88 OVR) was dominant in Denver's run to the AFC Championship.

The Broncos are the highest rated team in the AFC in Madden 15. This really shouldn't come as a surprise considering that they were the best AFC team last season, and they added playmakers like Aqib Talib, DeMarcus Ward, T.J Ward and others this season.

The Broncos should be a fun team to play with in Madden when it's released August 26th!
