The Denver Broncos Week 15 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals is one of the more important contests. It has major playoff implications, as both teams are fighting for a spot in the postseason. We take a look at this Broncos-Bengals game with some of our Broncos Week 15 predictions in mind.

Denver's defense has been the strongest asset for this franchise. The secondary is one of the best in the league, and the front seven has been consistent. The Broncos will have a shot to bother the Bengals on Sunday with their ferocious pass rush.

For the Broncos to win this matchup, they'll need the offense to be working smoothly. The passing attack has been a bit rocky, so Teddy Bridgewater will need to have a solid performance to help his team win. For that reason, we could see Noah Fant put up big numbers. Simultaneously, we should expect to see Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon continue to go ballistic in the rushing attack.

With that said, here are four bold Broncos Week 15 predictions for their matchup against the Bengals.

Broncos Week 15 Predictions

4. Broncos defense forces 3+ turnovers

The Broncos' defense has been incredibly consistent throughout the season. They've kept Denver in most of their games and have caused mayhem for opponents. The Bengals don't have the best offensive line, which could spell danger for Cincinnati.

Look for Denver to pressure Joe Burrow as much as possible. The Broncos' secondary is talented enough to keep up with Cincinnati's receivers. If the Broncos can make Burrow uncomfortable and force some turnovers, their chances of winning on Sunday drastically increase.

3. Teddy Bridgewater finishes with 200+ yards and 2 touchdowns 

Teddy Bridgewater hasn't been the most consistent, but at times, he's been a solid quarterback for the Broncos. He doesn't need to be elite to help Denver win, he just needs to be efficient. As long as Bridgewater doesn't turn the ball over, he'll prove to be an asset for his team. If he can manage to throw two touchdowns, Denver should be able to secure the victory.

2. Noah Fant leads the team in receiving yards

Noah Fant is one of the best young tight ends in the league. However, the Broncos' passing attack has been putrid for the most part, preventing Fant from having that breakout year we've been waiting for. Even so, this is a game Fant could take control of and help his team in a must-win game.

1. Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon combine for 150+ rushing yards and 3 touchdowns

The Broncos' offense starts ends with the rushing attack. Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon have been a phenomenal duo out of the backfield. Denver will lean on their talented running backs yet again, as they look to stun the Bengals in Week 15.

To do so, Denver will need to get the run game going early and often. With Williams and Gordon splitting carries, the backfield always has fresh legs. We'll see how this matchup plays out, but we should see the Broncos' running backs take control of the game on Sunday. If so, this franchise should be able to achieve their eighth win of the year. With the playoffs right around the corner, now is the time for Denver to go on a winning streak.
