Some of the most important games in the 2009 NFL schedule were announced on Monday, and the Broncos will once again be featured on NFL Network’s Thursday Night Football.

This year, they will appear on Thanksgiving Night, at home against the New York Giants.

The Broncos have been a favorite of the TNF lineup, appearing on it every year since its debut on NFL Network in 2006. The Broncos played in the first ever live game on NFLN, when they lost to the Chiefs in Jake Plummer’s final start.

Aside from that, it can be inferred that the Broncos will face the Dallas Cowboys at home in Week one. Since FOX is the primary network for NFC teams, the Broncos only have two home games against NFC teams (the Giants and Cowboys), and the Giants are already scheduled for Thanksgiving, the Cowboys are the only option for the Broncos season-opener.

The remainder of the schedules will be released in the coming weeks.
