It’s been a rather strange week in Broncos Country. So much so that it’s easy to overlook the fact Denver managed to somehow beat the Washington Football Team and claw their way back to 4-4.
The victory feels like a hollow one because of the decision to trade Von Miller for a second and third round pick in the 2022 draft. Say what you will about the draft picks and the likelihood that either makes a significant difference, but trading Miller purposefully weakened the lineup and decreased the chances that this banged up roster can force their way back into the postseason picture.
