Portion of Broncos’ 2012 schedule leaked?

Update: 4/14/12, 12:31 p.m. (MT):  If you were wondering how in the world Spano got his hands on the Chiefs’ schedule, the answer is simple: He didn’t. 

Spano apparently stumbled upon Kansas City’s version of the fake 2012 schedule — that was going around before being debunked by the NFL — and he mistakenly interpreted the rumor as fact.  Disregard the post below, the dates are not correct.

The entire 2012 NFL regular season schedule will be announced on Tuesday, April 17th in a 3-hour special on ESPN at 7:00 (p.m., ET).  Leading up to Tuesday, portions of the Denver Broncos‘ schedule is bound to be leaked.

One member of the media, Mile High Sports Brandon Spano, claims to have gotten his hands on the Kansas City Chiefs‘ schedule.  Per reports, the Broncos will play the Chiefs in October and November this season.

In 2011, the Broncos opened the season on Monday Night Football against the Oakland Raiders.  Denver lost 23-20.

This year, the Broncos are expected to open the season on Sunday Night Football (SNF).  It has been widely speculated that Denver will be given the maximum amount of scheduled prime-time games (five), with the possibility of another due to the NFL’s agreement with NBC which allows the network to flex the best games to SNF after week eleven of the regular season.

On Monday the team begins offseason workouts.  On Tuesday the schedule will be announced and a little over one week later the Denver Broncos will be on the clock in the 2012 NFL Draft.  The offseason isn’t so bad!
