Josh McDaniels coached circles around Nathaniel Hackett in 2022 as his Raiders swept the Broncos. Those two wins accounted for 33% of his total wins for the season as Las Vegas edged out the Broncos 5-12 finish by one win. There has to be a chance Denver under Sean Payton will make the difference here on the coaching front.

Over the offseason, McDaniels has continued his strategy of dismantling an NFL roster by running Derek Carr out of town and replacing him with the likes of Jimmy Garoppolo. The defense still looks like a hot mess and they only recently got Josh Jacobs to come back to the team. This should be a game the Denver Broncos can win a home, regardless of whether or not Payton returns them to playoff contention in year one.
