After winning the Super Bowl last year, the Broncos failed to make the playoffs. Does the problem lie with them, or is it elsewhere?
Anybody that has won a Super Bowl will probably tell you the same thing: repeating as champions is really hard.
The Denver Broncos reached the pinnacle of the sport just last year, only to miss the playoffs completely following the 2016 regular season. While future Hall-of-Famer Peyton Manning wasn't leading the charge under center this year, he was only a shell of his usual self during that title run.
