With Sunday’s victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, the Broncos extended their win-streak to 3 games and brought their record to 6-6. For the first time in 7 weeks, Denver no longer has a losing record.
After the soul-crushing loss to the Jets in week 5, the third-in-a-row, .500 football suddenly felt like too lofty a goal. The secondary gave up big plays. The offense was stagnant. Playcalling was putrid. Game management was even worse. I was so heartbroken that I went so far as to say that this Denver Broncos squad had given up.
