They're going to be a tough out, not just because they have a good defense, but also because they've figured out how to score on offense. DEN isn't the doormat they were all these years, that's all I'm saying.

I'm saying Denver is enjoying a perfect storm of scheduling, timely opponent injuries and the AFC having 9 teams with 6 or fewer wins. It's essentially a walk in if your team is over .500.
The 6-7 Colts are their main competitors to make the play-offs. Every other team has 5 wins or less. It's a once in a decade situation...
If the Donks replicate this next season...I'll respect them as much as I can for a third place team. Both Herbert and Stroud looked far better than Nix...it's premature to care about him.
Hell...Wilson will likely have had better stats last season than Nix. The hype is because he's a rookie that isnt terrible...
