Cool. We get to end another undefeated streak next week.
Broncos defense is ranked #1 in the league giving up 5.3 points per game.
Yeah, but look at the awesome offensive power on their schedule so far.
at Cincinnati Bengals W 12-7
Cleveland Browns W 27-6
Oakland Raiders W 23-3
Dallas Cowboys W 17-10
I'm glad Denver won so that we can continue our streak of beating undefeated teams. Our defense is legit as well. We just held a high scoring Ravens team to only 14 pts. Denver's offense is no where near that of the team we played today. I predict a huge win for the Pats next week.
I haven't seen the Broncos yet this year. Can someone explain how the hell their defense has turned it around from last year? How many new starters?
they switched to a 3-4 and now have a pass rush, that's pretty much it......I haven't seen the Broncos yet this year. Can someone explain how the hell their defense has turned it around from last year? How many new starters?
Don't be overconfident.
Denver is playing very good football. The Giants barely beat Dallas week 2, and the Giants are an extremely good team. The Giants defense gave up 31 points to the Cowboys offense. Denver gave up 10.
I can't remember a team that started off so rocky with a new coach and then looked so good. The 2000-2001 Pats come closest to mind, but not in the same league. Give McDaniels credit - he has Denver playing like a team. Kyle Ortan is playing mistake free football - 20/29 for 243 yards with 2 TDs and 0 INTs. He has 0 INTS so far this season and a 91+ QB rating. They rushed for 117 yards which had previously given up on 73 yards rushing to Carolina.
And Mike Nolan has them playing defense. Really stingy defense, averaging under 7 points per game. Sure, they beat Cincy on a fluke in the opener, but Cincy is 3-1, and Dallas is a good team.
Should we win? Definitely, if we play well. We're too strong on both sides of the ball. But I assume that Denver won't make many mistakes on offense to give us points, and will take advantage of mistakes that we make. Our offense has already given up 14 points to opposing defenses this season, almost 20% of our opponent's total points. That's not acceptable.
If we execute well and avoid mistakes we should win convincingly. But if we look past this game or get sloppy we could be in big trouble.
LOL, yea
i dont want to look past this game...and its at mile high (although i believe most of our past troubles with the broncos have been b/c of shanahan)
either way, theyre playing good Defense, and enough offense to win
i trust we win, but be wary of a team thats playing good football right now, and also has luck on their side
