Denver is a serious contender. We have the best OL in the league, two very good WR's, two good RB's, 3 good TE's, a HOF QB, an elite passrush, an elite secondary, an elite kicker, an elite punter, an elite punt returner, the best coaching staff in the NFL, and the Executive of the Year. Things are good right now in Broncoland. |
In time, you'll learn to temper your enthusiasm a bit... it is almost the halfway mark. Things look good. I want to see them win the games they're supposed to win during this next stretch of 6. Once I see them do that consistently with the defense continuing to improve... then and only then, will I allow myself to start thinking about great things in the playoffs and all the stuff you typed.
Next 9 games... 5 on the road.
@Bengals - tough offense, avg defense
@Panthers - playing like puke
Chargers - playing like puke
@Chiefs - playing like puke
Bucs - tough offense, avg defense
@Raiders - mixed bag
@Ravens - should be a tough road game, projecting loss
Browns - helter skelter team, Den should win
Chiefs - playing like puke
I think I can see 6 wins out of the 9, they may not sweep KC, but I think they can win 6 and hit 10 wins at this point, possibly 11. I think there are 2-3 games here that could give Denver problems, but we'll see.
Denver's big challenge won't be the remaining schedule... it's the team(s) they might face should they advance. At this point, they should win the division, but they need to go out and win 7 of these remaining 9 if they're really going to convince me they're ready to do something major in the playoffs.
