Will the real Broncos please stand up?
They opened the season 3-0 against teams that combined for an 0-9 record during that span. Then they lost four straight with a stagnant offense and questionable defense. They escaped with a win in Week 8 against Washington. And then there’s Week 9.
Denver dominated on Sunday, crushing the Cowboys, 30-16, in a game that was far more lopsided than the final score indicates. The victory improved the Broncos’ record to 5-4 on the year and renewed talk of a possible postseason appearance — the team’s first since the Peyton Manning era.
