Broncos do Broncos things in Christmas Eve disappointment

Related Topics: Denver Broncos, Russell Wilson

...and just like that, hopes for the playoffs vanished. We here at Mile High Report know that you’re busy and are going to condense today’s holiday rundown into a series of bullet points.

  • Denver did not capitalize on the one turnover they got. They elected to play it safe instead of jumping on the Patriots early.
  • Denver did not protect the ball. Turnovers and sloppy play doomed Denver in the second half.
  • Sean Payton does not trust Russell Wilson. The play calling was so conservative, the Broncos were more likely to lose yardage than to advance the ball.
