Mile High Report
After a nice long bye, the Denver Broncos are back for the final six games of the regular season. They are locked in a major battle for the number one seed in the AFC and must keep winning despite having a 9-2 record. They will catch the Washington Commanders without their start quarterback and riddled with injuries to boot, while Denver is getting most of their missing starters back for this one.
“I think we felt—and we didn’t get into it, but I think we felt realistically when we… Obviously the scans and all of that were important,” Payton said. “When those came back positive, the relief for Alex [Singleton], never mind the football player. That news came prior to the bye week. We felt confident with him and Pat [Surtain II] and a few of these guys that we’ve been without that this was a target game.”
Coming out of the bye at near full strength is all a fan can ask for. They have two very winnable games this week and next week and after that it becomes very challenging, so they need to take care of business here in Week 13.
