The Broncos can’t afford a loss in their next three games if they want to see the postseason
Broncos Country is riding high after their team’s big win this past Sunday. But let me point out to you that what the Denver Broncos need to do now is go on a winning streak.
If the Broncos are going to see the postseason, they can’t afford a bad loss to any of their next three opponents (Raiders, Browns, and Colts). All three of their next games are against weaker opponents on paper. These are the kind of games that playoff teams take care of.
With Sean Payton at the helm, I’m sure the players are getting the message that every game is important and there is no room for taking their foot off of the gas.
With the stout defense that Denver has they have a legitimate shot against any team they face off against.
With Bo Nix’s play getting sharper each and every week, the offense is no longer a group that can’t put points on the board (compared to previous years).
Hopefully, the Broncos use these next three games to build momentum for the season’s end.
