You know, you could almost see this coming.
The Broncos weren't impressive at all against the Chargers. Manning looked pedestrian in that game.
They handled the Patriots, but mostly because the Patriots aren't really that impressive at all on offense. Manning did not put that game away until the second half.
The Chargers and Patriots were mediocre-to-good teams, and the Broncos looked merely "OK" against both of them.
Denver runs into the best team in the league and whammo.
