Horse Tracks: Battle of the worst, Broncos edition

One of the important things I have actually constantly liked about the Denver Broncos is that, till not so just recently, they’ve constantly been competitive enough to a minimum of be thought about a dark-horse outlier, a disruptor at the top of the NFL hierarchy. Teams utilized to fear entering into Mile High. They understood it was never ever a simple ‘W’, and as a fan that constantly felt remarkable.

Of course, current Broncos groups have actually stomped the life out of that sensation, however being this bad for so long has actually unlocked on a brand-new kind of prideful boasting:

“Our team sucks worse than yours.”

“No, way. Have you seen us play?”

“I guess we all know it was more Tom and not so much Bill, don’t we?”

With the Green Bay Packers and the New England Patriots looming on the schedule, their fans are feeling those competitive juices. Which group includes the most significant band of inexperienced nincompoops? Is there a group that regularly stands out not just at not stopping the run however likewise not the pass? Which group can dig deep within itself to give up on each other when it matters most?

“You think you’re bad? You haven’t seen our offense.”

“We have, like, no line whatsoever… On either side of the ball.”

“They can’t even get a play off in time.”

It’s reasonable to take a look at the Patriots and Green Bay and not be stressed. Winless Carolina is presently revealing everybody up, however they’re young and might screw around to win a couple video game at the end of the season.

These 2023 Broncos are first-rate horrible and I hope they recognize their possible to bring home that #1 total 2024 choice, a choice that Denver has actually never ever had in their history of taking part in the NFL draft. The splendor generally scheduled for the Lions, Browns, and Cardinals is within our grasp. All we need to do is connect, bang our head on a light, drop the stairs, and ignite along the method. We are a 3rd of the method there with simply 11-games to go. It’s essential these Broncos end up the season with a meek little lifeless whimper. Just like I understand this team can.
