I also wanted to talk about what I learned from my trip to Denver…which is that the Broncos’ youth and relative inexperience might actually be a GOOD thing. They’ve had so much roster turnover – only 6 starters are left from the pre-Payton era…and there might not be a ton of guys who are household names YET – but this purge has left them with some hungry and talented young players who seem to be changing the vibe around this team.
And not that I put a lot of stock in preseason results…but the fact that they did finish 3-0 and lead the NFL in scoring with over 33 points a game does speak to how much depth and skill there is from top to bottom on this squad…and how bought in and locked in everyone is.
They’re onto something in Denver and everyone I talked to there feels it. And I do think a lot of it has to do with Bo Nix. Sean Payton couldn’t hide his smile when I asked him about his QB. Even Pat Surtain and Courtland Sutton were kind of blown away by what they’ve seen from the rookie. Take a listen..
Hearing that he has confidence and a command of the offense wasn’t surprising given what I learned about Bo through the process…but the behind the back passes and “mojo” caught my attention. I think he’s going to be better than a lot of draft critics thought…and I think this team is going to surprise a lot of people.
The Patriots are the only team in the entire league right now getting longer odds to make the playoffs than the Broncos right now. Denver is at +590…Even the Panthers and Giants are getting shorter odds. I know the AFC is loaded…but I’m not going to get caught overlooking this squad.
