Broncos vs Patriots AFC Championship: The Roster Matchups That Could Decide It

The DNVR Draft Podcast gets you ready for the AFC Championship showdown between the Denver Broncos and New England Patriots, breaking down the biggest roster concerns exposed after the Divisional Round — and what they mean for both this game and Denver’s future outlook.

We open with a deep dive into Denver’s key matchup questions heading into the AFC Championship. Can the Broncos’ run defense hold up against playoff offenses? and is that a bigger priority than offensive skill players? How can Denver get in on the league-wide rise of multi–tight end sets? We also examine whether D-Line  depth and pass rush are becoming priority needs as the stakes rise.

We react to Mel Kiper’s latest mock draft, connecting national projections to Broncos fits and targets. We also recap the College Football Playoff National Championship, highlighting prospects who boosted their stock.

We wrap with CFP and NFL Playoffs lessons we learned, and thoughts on the NFL and college coaching carousel now that the season has wrapped up.

If you’re locked into Broncos playoff coverage, AFC Championship matchups, and how Denver’s roster questions connect directly to the NFL Draft, this episode is a must-watch.
