Cleveland Browns at Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos are currently in last place in the AFC West, and I do not see them moving up any time soon. On Monday, they announced that quarterback Joe Flacco will miss an extended period of time with a neck injury, clearing the way for Brandon Allen to make his first NFL start against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.

Cleveland was beaten by the New England Patriots this past Sunday, but they should have much easier sledding against the Broncos in this one. Denver has issues on both sides of the ball, and you can expect the Browns defense, especially defensive end Myles Garrett to have a big game in this one.

For the Broncos, this has the makings of a very long season, but it will be interesting to see what Allen can do against the Browns. Cleveland has played well below their  talent level this season, but on Sunday, they come away with a big victory inside Mile High.

Prediction: Browns 30, Broncos 14
