The NFL Football season is still about 5 months away, but there is something we can get excited about...the release of the preseason schedule. I know that Preseason games really don't mean much, especially in the second half but it gives us a chance to see our backups play, and see if they are worth keeping. Plus, who will be the second string QB for the Broncos this season. Hopefully we won't ever have to use them, unless were kicking butt and Peyton is taking a rest.

Three weeks from now we can start getting excited for the 2013 NFL Draft. Between now and then the regular season schedule should be released as well. In the preseason schedule it looks like the Broncos will be taking on  the entire NFC West Division. Here is the Preseason Schedule.

Week 1: @ San Francisco 49ers August 8-11 (TBD)

Week 2: @ Seattle Seahawks August 15-19 (TBD)

Week 3: vs. St. Louis Rams  August  24, 6 p.m.

Week 4: vs. Arizona Cardinals August 29 or 30th (TBD)

The exact dates and times will be announced later this month. What do you think about the Broncos Preseason Schedule? Are you tired of playing the Cardinals (Denver's second most common preseason opponent) and 49ers ( Most common - 35th time in Preseason) in the Preseason?
