DENVER, CO – NOVEMBER 27: Quarterback Trevor Siemian /

2. Denver Broncos

The Broncos are trying to get back to the playoffs after going 9-7 this season. Denver still has one of the best defenses in the NFL, but the offense has some serious issues. One of those lines up behind center, with Trevor Siemian struggling with most throws down the field.

After changing coaching staffs this season, it remains to be seen how much head coach Vance Joseph is committed to the current roster. Siemian could be put into a backup role, with rookie Paxton Lynch getting some looks. However, if the Broncos don’t think he’s ready to play, Romo becomes a very interesting option.

Romo is turning 37 years old in March, but he would make Denver an instant favorite. The offensive line has to be a major concern in this scenario, but Romo would love handing off to C.J. Anderson and throwing to Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas. If Denver could simply keep Romo upright, it could be a 12 or 13-win team.
