I’m just pushing back against the obvious falsehoods here. Russell Wilson played well. The offense is noticeably better than it was last year. The Broncos, when healthy, have a lot of talent on their roster. |
Noticeably better than what? It definitely wasn't noticeably better than the Raiders games last year. If anything, it was less productive. 4.5 freaking yds per play.
The Raiders were one of the few teams that the Broncos could move the ball on last year and I won't be a bit surprised if that remains true this year.

I don't think anyone believes they're the sort of team that will get rolled by 30 every week. But this is the NFL. Everybody has talent and everybody's subject to a cap. That kind of team basically doesn't exist, unless they're tanking or at the start of a rebuild.
Bottom line is that Denver looked a lot like the team that won 5 games last year. If anything, they've regressed defensively. As a lot of people predicted after they brought in Joseph.
