With the Denver Broncos Week 10 matchup being against the Philadelphia Eagles, we'll see if Denver can string together two big wins to keep their playoff hopes alive. It should be a great Broncos-Eagles game as both franchises are determined to prove themselves. We'll be going over some of our Broncos Week 10 predictions for this game.
Denver's defense is a big reason why this team has been competitive. They just put on an impressive performance against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, making the Broncos a dangerous matchup for anyone. Especially against an Eagles team that's struggled on offense throughout this season.
However, it's Denver's offense Philadelphia should worry about. It's been a roller coaster of a season for Courtland Sutton, but he could get back into the groove on Sunday. For that to happen, Teddy Bridgwater must be at his best. Additionally, Noah Fant aims to make a splash after sitting out in Week 9. With that said, here are four bold Broncos Week 10 predictions for their game against the Eagles.

Broncos Week 10 Predictions
4. Courtland Sutton bounces back with 125+ receiving yards
He's had back-to-back slow games for the Broncos, recording a measly three receptions for 49 yards combined. Courtland Sutton is the best wide receiver on the team who has hit a rough patch. If Denver hopes to win, they have to feed the ball to Sutton against the Eagles.
With offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur ruled out, the Broncos might have trouble moving the ball downfield. However, there's a chance Denver gets creative with their play calling and tries something new with Courtland Sutton. Keep an eye on him, as Sutton could be in for a big performance on Sunday.
3. Teddy Bridgewater lights up the field with 275 passing yards
Teddy Bridgewater looked phenomenal against the Dallas Cowboys. He was slinging it downfield, making the right decisions, and the offense was moving fluidly. That's the type of play the Broncos need if they hope to find themselves in the postseason.
Unfortunately, Bridgewater hasn't been able to contribute like that at a consistent rate. The Broncos' offense lives or dies with Bridgewater's play. Even so, the Eagles don't have the best defense and this could be a great chance for Teddy Bridgewater to string together two big performances.
2. Noah Fant reels in 2 receiving touchdowns on the day
The Broncos' tight end is likely chomping at the bit to get back onto the field. After missing out on Denver's shellacking of the Dallas Cowboys, Noah Fant has to be looking forward to going up against a mediocre Eagles defense. Keep an eye on Fant, as he could be in for a big game on Sunday.
1. Broncos win the game despite not having Pat Shurmur
Denver has a solid roster, which is why they'll be competitive throughout the season. Losing Pat Shurmur is a big deal, as the team will lose some stability. Even so, it's not like the Broncos are going up a Super Bowl contender. The Eagles are on track to miss out on the postseason altogether, making this a great matchup for Denver.
Look for the Broncos to rely on their defense and start the game out running the ball. Controlling the clock and tiring out the Eagles is their best bet. Once Philadelphia's defense is tired, Denver should look to open up the playbook and light up the field with an excellent passing attack.
