Broncos...Best Team In Football?

Don't call the men with straight jackets just yet. I'm not ready to go to the funny farm this week. But I will say that I am drinking the kool-aid when it comes to the Denver Broncos and after six weeks into the NFL season I ask you to find me a more complete team then them. Not as easy as you would have thought. Well, pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass and I will elaborate more on why I think the Broncos are the best team in the NFL.

First off they can run the ball like nobody's business. They have a hard nosed veteran running back in Corell Buckhalter togo along with the quick-hitting rookie out of Georgia, Knowshon Moreno. Their offensive line is just sick and everyone is still trying to copy how the Broncos run block so effectively.

Next, their recieving core is out of this world. They have a stud in Brandon Marshall, a great possesion-all world special teamer(just ask the Chargers) in Eddie Royal, a crafty, always in the right place at the right time (just askthe Bengals) receiver in Brandon Stokley and two pass-catching stud tightends in Tony Scheffler and Daniel Graham.

Sure they don't have Jay Cutler anymore, but do you think Denver really misses him? They have Kyle Orton, who was part of the Cutler trade, starting at quarterback and they are quite pleased with him. As a matter of fact you would have been laughed out of the Rocky Mountains last spring if after the trade you would have said that six weeks into the season the Broncos would be happier with Orton as their quarterback than they would have been with Cutler still under center.

As for the other side of the ball, the Broncos lead the NFL in scoring defense and have a mind-boggling stat that through six games they have only allowed ten second half points. If you don't have a lead at halftime against them forget about it. Lights out, the party's over. And with Eddie Royal returning punts and kicks as he does, while Matt Prater keeps kicking them from long distance, the special teams looks to be in good hands.

Finally it comes down to coaching and call me crazy, but Josh McDaniels seems like he just has "it". I know it's easy to say at 6-0, but even in some of the tight games they have, he just seems to make the right moves. Well, I know nobody expected Denver to be where they are at now, but soon the league will take notice and I along with Bronco fans won't Bethesda onlyone's saying they are the best team in football. The rest of the NFL will have to admit it also!
