Mile High Report: Broncos Are Who We Thought They Were

The verdict is in: The Broncos are not all that good after all, a verdict hammered home by Denver’s ugly loss today:

The Broncos are who I thought they were. From the beginning of Training Camp, I said this team was neither deep enough, or talented enough, to overcome poor play from any of the three phases of the team – offense, defense, special teams. Through 6 straight wins to start the season that was the case, and through 4 ugly losses it is the case. The Broncos are not good enough to overcome mental mistakes, they are not deep enough to overcome Red Zone turnovers, and they simply don’t have enough talent to beat quality football teams when they commit unsportsmanlike conduct penalties that neutralize one advantage they might have – in the return game.
