Troy Renck is a Denver7 Sports Anchor.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — This represented the season of green lights. Everything would fall into place. Like a bright morning sun and a table at your favorite breakfast place. But instead of biscuits and gravy, you received biscuits and gravel.
The answer? Not necessarily. The Broncos have beaten a one-win Chicago team. That’s it. And while the Packers rank as a disappointment, they are 2-3. So, how do the Broncos claim their first victory in Denver before the Chiefs roll into town next week aiming for their 17th straight win over their once rival. It starts with slowing the run and showing no Love to the Packers quarterback.
Though not himself this year because of a lingering groin injury, the three-time All-Pro intercepted Patrick Mahomes last week when Jonathon Cooper hit his arm. Simmons boasts 28 career interceptions, fourth most by a Broncos player in his first eight seasons. He ranks as the only NFL player with at least four picks in each of the last four years.
Many have been rolling their eyes at this team for weeks, in large part, because of the defense. However, while the Broncos rank last in yards allowed and points per game , the group has shown improvement. Linebacker Alex Singleton and Cornerback Pat Surtain II credited smoother play calls and better communication. It no longer looks like half the team is playing zone defense with the other half in man.
