5 bold predictions for Denver Broncos in 2020

2. Von Miller, Bradley Chubb and Shelby Harris will combine for over 30 sacks

Fangio has a history of building his defenses on the principle of pressuring the quarterback. This year won’t be any different. He’s going to harass the opposing signal caller at every opportunity.

His pass rushing triumvirate of Miller, Chubb and Harris should do the heavy lifting. Miller and Chubb are both strong threats to notch double-digit sack totals if they can stay healthy. Both have the speed and power required to overwhelm offensive tackles from the edge.

Don’t underestimate Harris’ ability to produce pressure from the inside though. He got to the quarterback six times himself in 2019. The loss of Derek Wolfe up front will put even more pressure on him to produce in 2020. It could line up to be a career year for the 28-year-old lineman.

The cumulative effect of all three guys working together on obvious passing downs is going to be a nightmare for offensive coordinators. They’ll get a ton of sacks this season. Chalk them up for a cool 30 between the three of them.
