So many people are coming out of the woodwork about how bad of a team Denver is To them, the 6 and 0 start was all smoke and mirrors. They are the worst 6 and 0 team in the history of the NFL.I heard some dipstick on the radio this morning gaurantee that Denver won’t make the playoffs. Why are certain people so infatuated with Denver’s demise this season Don’t we usually celebrate teams that overachieve and are up-and-coming I guess people are still jealous of all of the trips to the Super Bowl and the two Lombardi trophies.I have a few observations or points that I would like to make:1. Nobody should be gauranteeing anything about where Denver is going They have lost two games in a row. 
They haven’t looked good, but Pittsburgh didn’t look good after three weeks, Dallas didn’t look good after five weeks, and San Diego didn’t look good after the first six weeks either Teams go through rough patches. I would rather have the Broncos slip during weeks eight and nine than weeks fifteen through seventeen.2. People need to be consistent about what kind of schedule they think Denver has. There are the people who say that Denver won’t be able to last with the difficult schedule they have, but then they turn around and say that they haven’t beaten anyone good.

So, apparently, Dallas, New England, and San Diego (I will explain why I am leaving off Cincinnati in number 3) weren’t good when Denver beat them. Maybe they are saying that Denver wouldn’t be able to beat them again. Good teams find ways to win games, and they certainly found ways to beat Dallas and New England San Diego wasn’t even a challenge in the second half. Losses to Baltimore and Pittsburgh do not negate the succcess they have had.3. Most people who moan and complain about how lucky Denver is base it mostly off of Brandon Stokley’s miracle catch of a tipped ball in the opening week It was a lucky catch. There I said it! However, I also want to tell those fans to quit hating on the Broncos for that win.
