The NFL will announce the schedule for the 2015 season on Tuesday night, but the number of games leaking out ahead of the made-for-TV unveiling is continuing on Tuesday afternoon.
Vic Lombardi of CBS4 in Denver reports that the Broncos will open up the season at home with a Sunday, September 13 game against the Ravens. That would pit Gary Kubiak against his 2014 team in his first game as the head coach of the Broncos.
Kubiak left Baltimore after one year as the Ravens’ offensive coordinator to return to the team he played for as a quarterback and began his coaching career with as an assistant. The Broncos also signed former Ravens tight end Owen Daniels and safety Darian Stewart as free agents this offseason.
All that familiarity should help with some of the advance scouting for both teams, although we imagine that even teams with less connections will be able to squeeze in some time in the film room between now and September.
