Why fans should still be optimistic about the Denver Broncos

Why fans should still be optimistic about the Denver Broncos

The loss to the Kansas City Chiefs stings but there are still reasons to be optimistic about the Denver Broncos.

Yesterday’s heartbreaking loss to the Kansas City Chiefs left a bad taste in the mouth for many fans across Broncos Country.

It was a missed opportunity that would have given them a lot of confidence moving forward. A win would have given them a two-game lead for the final wildcard spot in the AFC. Instead, they only have a one-game margin over several other teams.

Sitting at 5-5, every game from here on out is crucial for the Broncos. Head...

Sean Payton on Broncos response to loss: ‘The sky is not falling’

The 2024 Denver Broncos are young, but they’re resilient and that’s something head coach Sean Payton made clear after the team’s heartbreaking loss on Sunday to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Denver Broncos young team ‘resilient’ according to Sean Payton

This year’s Denver Broncos team had a lot of questions surrounding it during the offseason after the team made big changes, including moving on from Russell Wilson and veteran fan-favorite Justin Simmons. A lot of those questions had to do with leadership and who would step up from there.

Rookie quarterback Bo Nix has taken on a great deal of...

Andy Reid Roundup: Donovan Smith, JuJu Smith-Schuster and the deep ball

Kansas City’s head coach joined media members for his usual Monday Zoom call.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid met with the media via Zoom on Monday, less than 24 hours after the team’s 16-14 win over the Denver Broncos.

In his opening statement, Reid acknowledged that even though the Chiefs won, they have much to work on ahead of the Week 11 game against the Buffalo Bills. Specifically on offense, Reid emphasized the team’s lack of success in the red zone, taking too many penalties and missing what could have been touchdowns.

On the game-saving play, Reid highlighted...

2 Winners, 2 Losers from Chargers-Titans: Tuli Tuipulotu continues to step up

Tuli Tuipulotu spearheaded a pash rush that sacked Titans QB Will Levis seven times on Sunday afternoon.

The Chargers are now 6-3 and still...

The Denver Broncos made three mistakes on the blocked field goal by the Chiefs.

If you sat through the Broncos versus the Chiefs on Sunday afternoon, you saw a great game. It was competitive throughout, with Denver playing up to undefeated Kansas City’s level. And you watched with bated breath as the Broncos marched downfield to set up a game-winning field goal.

And when the Chiefs blocked the field goal to win the game, the whole thing came crashing down.

Broncos quarterback Bo Nix held his own vs. Patrick Mahomes

The Broncos rookie quarterback held his own against Patrick Mahomes in their first of many matchups to come.

Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix has been impressive this season, but all eyes were on him this Sunday to see how he would fair against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs at Arrowhead. Would he look overmatched, overwhelmed, and struggle in the tough environment against the undefeated reigning Super Bowl Champions?

He did not. He held his own and arguably, outperformed Mahomes on the field.

Sure, the final score fell in the Chiefs' favor in heartbreaking fashion, but Broncos Country has to come...

Has Audric Estime taken over the Broncos backfield?

It appears the Broncos rookie running back is their new starting running back.

Heading into Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs, there were whispers and rumors that rookie running back Audric Estime would be more involved in the running game.

That was not the case yesterday, as Estime led the Broncos backfield and appeared to have replaced Javonte Williams as the starting running back.
