Everyone made some really good points. I\u2019ll keep it honest and side with Adam that the defense gives me the most confidence Denver can win this weekend. Truth be told, the Broncos would have not been as good as their record shows without Vance Joseph and the defense carrying the team for a good portion of the season. That\u2019s just the reality.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">It\u2019s almost impossible to stop Josh Allen. Like Joseph said earlier this week, he can wreck your dreams and single-handedly has the ability to take over games. I feel they can do more than enough to limit his impact on the game and give Bo Nix and the offense a chance to capitalize on shorter fields.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">It\u2019s quite serendipitous, but I truly feel this team has a lot of parallels to the 2015 squad that wound up securing the franchise\u2019s third Lombardi Trophy by winning Super Bowl 50 over the Carolina Panthers. If Denver\u2019s defense can bring their A-game on Saturday, they are going to have a tremendous shot at getting the privilege to host the AFC Championship game and be a win away from punching their ticket to Super Bowl 60.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I agree with a lot of what was said above.
