Denver's two loses to playoff teams were very early in the season to Atlanta and Houston.
Does anyone doubt the outcome if Denver played either at this point?
I think we would hurt ATL
Those 5 INT would not be happening
HOU would be a coin flip
I think we can handle NE, we almost came back in all 3 games
We never got blew out
We lost by single digits, only NE was a 10 digit loss, we almost removed that too!
Pey Pey is making stars out of no name receivers, confidence is building, winning gives teams such a boost
Those 3 losses early in the season helped rather than hurt the team
"Back to the Drawing Board" "Exploit our Strong option, Diminish our Weaknesses"
That is why we won 11 Straight, #1 seed, HFA throughout the playoffs
We could have lost that SD game, getting blown out like a motherfucker in the first half, but resilience pays off, we won that, and the team took on a whole new role of being a fierce and efficient team
There are brain farts here and there, but the team will gel and run like a well oil machine for years to come
