These guys won't stop talking. And you can pretty much do it. You're in Maz. In perpetuity. Yep. The sports hub. The Broncos have not been Bo Nix dependent. So that I think is the key point. And I want to say this while on the front end saying, I thought Bo Nix of the eight quarterbacks that played this weekend, you said it, Bru, and I agree with you 100%.

0:21.6

I thought he played the best. I thought Bo Knicks was awesome. I want to give Bo Nick's credit, and I, obviously, had he not been injured, coming off that game, you feel very differently about the Broncos. But over the course of the season, we watched the Broncos seven times win games

0:42.6

with quarterback play about the level I expect they can get from Stidham this week.

0:47.8

I think that if they just, if Stidham can just be 160 yards on 17 of 30 with no turnovers,

1:00.9

I do give the Broncos a real shot, not just to cover this number,

1:05.5

but to turn the Patriots over and to put them in an adverse position.

1:11.3

Nick right there, FS1, if they just get representative quarterback play.

1:15.4

Average replacement level, they would say in baseball mass, you know,

1:19.4

wins above a replacement level quarterback play.

1:23.1

A buck 60, 17 of 30, no turnovers.

1:32.2

Can they win the game? I don't think so, by the way.

1:35.8

I don't think so because I think the Pats are still going to score to our previous conversation. I think Stenem has to make some place and they need to put some points on the board. And just him managing a game into the high teens is I don't think going to get it done. Because I'm with what most people seem to think around here anyway, that the Broncos defense is overrated. I do. And overrated doesn't mean suck. And I still think it's one of the better defenses they will have faced. I don't think it's on power with what they just faced with the Houston Texans, though. I don't think it's on par with what they faced the last two weeks.

2:02.1

Yeah, I feel the same way.

2:03.1

I don't think they're as good as either of those two teams defensively.

2:05.8

Now, it's better than maybe over half the defenses they did face during the regular season. but I think that Denver is not on par with the Texans or the Chargers or if you make it the next game, the Seahawks,

2:18.8

I think this is a step down and the paths are going to score.

2:22.1

And as I tried to talk about with Paul, I mean, you managed to score last week against a legit,

2:26.7

legit number one defense.

2:28.8

You should be able to score in this game.

2:30.5

So just Jared said, I'm just managing the game.

2:32.8

I don't think it's going to be enough.

2:34.7

What if the weather forecast stuff is legit? Okay, that is a mitigating factor for
