Lets hope you guys get a few more wins before reality kicks in...more wins gets you further away from drafting the talent you need.
How long does the new QB smell last? Right now...Donk fans are just happy to be winning games....bad QB play or not. Soon they will turn on him when he proves to be an average at best starter...and the cycle will repeat. [Reply]
Bucs, Steelers, Raiders, Panthers and Jets are ranked 19th, 23rd, 24th, 25th and 27th offensively...the only top 10 offense they've played is Seattle (7th) and they lost.
Bo Nix is on pace for a 10 TD/13 INT season...vast improvement over Wilson's 26 TD/ 8 INT 2023.
Yes, please keep winning...it's going to fall apart soon...just like last year.
I want two things...Bronco fans to get their hopes up...and Nix to be just good enough to be their starter in 2024.
Chargers are 29th on offense...so the trend of playing consecutive bottom-feeder offenses continues...until it doesn't.
Considering they were expected to be one of the worst defenses in the country, I think it’s fair to say they’re better than expected. You’re trying to show they’re not one of the best and that’s probably true. [Reply]
So far, the Broncos have played three of the worst offenses in the league and two decent offenses. Of the two that are decent, one scored above their season average. I think we need to see a little more before proclaiming it a great defense.
Just like the Chargers probably won't maintain a 12.5 points allowed average, Denver's numbers will probably come back to Earth too. [Reply]

Of course. Point is, they look better than they are because they have a win against one so so team and the rest are awful [Reply]
Broncos are blitzing at a 45% clip...which is most in the NFL. That's a crazy number that's not sustainable.
You can get away with that if you are playing inept offenses...teams are going to start to adjust. If they blitz every other play against Mahomes...he'll smoke them. [Reply]

Trying to make up for a lack of talent. Look at all the penalties Surtain has committed. Dude has been smoked over and over again but yet that little passer rating against and yards allowed is protected because of all those penalties . Dude has been burnt toast unless he grabs and he's gotten by with a TON not called too. [Reply]
