The Denver Broncos’ Super Bowl win last season was special for a number of reasons. They won on the biggest stage against the league MVP; Peyton Manning ended his career by hoisting his second Lombardi; and the Super Bowl marked the culmination of the most dominant defense since the ‘85 Chicago Bears. Further, because of how the Broncos played through the season and won the Super Bowl, many believed they would have a great chance at repeating this year.
The Broncos won last season by absolutely dominating and controlling on the defensive side of the ball.
