The Denver Broncos know which teams they will face in the 2022 season and each of them along with where those games will take place has been revealed.

After finishing 7-10 on the season, the Denver Broncos will play the last place schedule in 2022. The team is searching for a new head coach that can help them get out of the AFC West cellar.

Of course, the Broncos will play the usual six games against their division but the AFC West will also take on the NFC West next season, meaning the Broncos could face some difficult opponents as three of those teams qualified for the playoffs this season.

Now that the regular season is 17 games long, each team faces one additional opponent from the opposite conference that is not in the division of which they are playing against that season. In 2022, that opponent for the Broncos will be the team they defeated in Super Bowl 50, the Carolina Panthers.

The full schedule will be released later this spring, but these are the teams that will appear on that schedule for the Broncos.

Broncos will play 9 games on the road, where they went 3-5 in 2021

Home games: Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers, Arizona Cardinals, Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers.

Away games: Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Chargers, Baltimore Ravens, Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, Tennessee Titans.

The Broncos will play one more road game than home game and that road schedule does look a bit difficult, as games in Baltimore, Los Angeles against the Rams and Tennessee could each prove challenging. They will also head to Jacksonville to face Trevor Lawrence there for the second year in a row.

However, if the Broncos are able to become the improved, competitive team the fanbase has long been hoping for in 2022, the home slate features several winnable games.
