Welcome back to our Broncos at the Bye series. For the first installment, I asked the Mile High Report staff: “How can Denver achieve contender status in the last six games of the season?” With this second installment, I wanted to switch gears a bit and reflect on what’s been so great about the Broncos to date. That’s why I asked the staff, “What about the team gives you the most optimism after 11 games?”

I’m absolutely stoked on how well the defense has been playing. The most sacks in the league, the best red zone defense, and they are executing well for the most part on third down outside of crucial penalties. Overall, it’s been the biggest bright spot for the Broncos this season.

On top of that, I truly appreciate Bo Nix’s ability to turn it up a notch late in games.
