Are the Broncos for real?
When a football fan looks at the Denver Broncos in 2009, they say, "Well, their 4-0, but the teams they played aren't exactly what you call good". Not anymore.
Kyle Orton led the Broncos on a 98 yard scoring drive to even the game against the Patriots at 17, and another drive that ended with a Matt Prater field goal handed Denver their 5th win and finally made people thinking it's just another one of those bad seasons in Denver.
With games coming up against San Diego, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Washington, Denver can't get ahead of themselves. But right now Josh McDainels is probably partying with the thought of beating his old coach.
With Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter running the ball, Kyle Orton at QB and Brandon Marshall and Stokley at receiver, the Broncos are in pretty good shape. And, even though the Broncos were supposed to be an offensive team, they have allowed an average of 8.6 points per game against opponents, best in the league. The pass defense, led by Brian Dawkins and Champ Bailey has been a huge part of that.
Denver is on Monday Night Football next week vs. San Diego [I will be at the game].
