Denver Broncos Week 9 Predictions

4. The defense will struggle without Von Miller leading the way

Broncos defense has been excellent the past two weekends only allowing a combined 27 points. On Monday the Broncos traded Von Miller to the Rams and it's going to be tough for the Broncos on the defensive side of the ball without Miller.

Luckily for the Broncos Dak is playing his first game since returning from injury. The Cowboys also have some potential star receivers out as CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper are both questionable for the game. This would be huge for the Broncos and would potentially make them win the game if those two don't play.

3. Teddy Bridgewater will have a coming-out party

Bridgewater had an incredible start to the season, but an injury set him back a little bit and he hasn't been the same ever since. He's one of the most underrated quarterbacks in football. It's only a matter of time until he starts figuring it out again. His teams going to need them this week. He's going to have to play some good football to beat this tough Cowboys team. If he doesn't the chances of the Broncos winning aren't very high. He will come out as he did in the first three weeks and be sensational for the Broncos.

2. The Broncos win by a field goal

Expect this to be a low-scoring game as both teams aren't the most skilled offensive teams. Dallas does feature an elite offense but with Dak just coming back and two major receivers possibly not playing, they will be an average offense on Sunday.

The Broncos are going to struggle putting points on the board and they will rely on some 4th quarter magic to win this game with a field goal.

1. The Cowboys spoil Dak Prescott return with a victory

For the last many years, the Cowboys always have a point in the season where they struggle. This is the best Dallas team that they've put out there in a long time, but if one thing's certain, the Cowboys will always make it hard on themselves.

The Broncos have a perfect opportunity to steal this game. They're coming off a win against a tough Washington Football Team who features one of the league's best defenses. Denver realizes if they don't start playing like how they did at the beginning of the season, their seasons going to be over and they won't be making the playoffs. Dallas is 6-1 and there's a chance that a few key players don't play. The Broncos have to take advantage of this and find a way to win this football game.

The Broncos are going to continue their winning streak and ruin Dak Prescott's return.
