Indeed, if you look at February games, the stats are truly remarkable. Denver has won infinity percent more games than any other AFC West team in that month. And none of those games were played in the cheating Mile High air.

No diversion needed. Fact is 85% wins in September. Compared to the rest of the division, Donx have most amount of Home Openers. Most amount of home games played in Sept. Least amout of road openers. Least amout of back to back road games to open the season. And its not even close. Like I said, let the real rationalization begin... Looks like you're doing just that.
While you're at it, read up on the effects of high altitude plus heat and what it does to air density and oxygen and how it affects short term conditioning. You win more at home in Sept. because visiting teams get gassed and can't recover.
