I realize I fall on the optimistic side of the spectrum of Bronco fortunes, but I think the Broncos have the classic pathway to the Super Bowl Championship and the Lombardi trophy. The Broncos are the kind of team that wins most often - when there is no dominant power around - and sometimes if there is a perceived dominant power around - it happens anyway.
The Broncos are showing the best defensive talent in the entire league - this despite an offense that has given up the ball -and taken an abundant amount of 3 and outs. Defenses win championships - something everyone confesses to know.
As for the offense - the long road to the end of the regular season - is here. Who does the Broncofandom blame for this crappy 11-4 record? The offense - especially the Oline. How about the press - yes them too.
It's the offenses fault.
In my opinion - this should make the offense more motivated - Do you think anyone will remember this season if they happen to jell in the playoffs thru the Super Bowl? The QB question is settled - the Broncos are going with a young guy - who is intellectually, emotionally and physically committed to winning. That should sharpen the focus. The coaches realize that they have to condense this offense down to what works for Brock - and the offense - for they too can become heroes. Then you have the DT factor - he too gets a chance at redemption in the playoffs - no one will remember his drops if he makes big plays consistently in the playoffs. Same for CJ Anderson.
This is how I see the up trends lining up:
1) Great defense - has depth unseen in the NFL for decades and playing at a high level of confidence.
2) An Offense motivated to redeem itself.
3) Players motivated to redeem themselves.
4) QB question settled - better focus on the game plan.
5) Time to condense the offense down to what works best with Brock Osweiler - coaches redeem themselves.
6) Osweiler is a three way player - he leads emotionally, he leads physically and he leads intellectually. He throws an accurate ball with pace.
7) Offense asserts itself - defense plays even better and opposing offenses turn the ball over more often.
Chargers game plan:
Run them off the field 2/3 run plays - challenge the oline to bust some runs. The Broncos can run on this defense - Hillman and CJ are in decent shape. What could be more uplifting than a dominate run game going into the playoffs? More play action to DT and Sanders, but fewer passes.
This team has upward trends that added to the strength of the defense - gives them a great pathway to the title.
I think the Broncos are much better than the current odds of winning the Super Bowl- which are 10-1 odds - now is the time to put some money down -and this is the year to do it.
