#8 on NFL.com and #10 on ESPN.com. Definitely didn't see us getting voted that high. Nice to see though.

Not surprising to me. This is the second time this year that someone thought i had Denver too high (last week had them at 14, this week at 11) in my own rankings.

Apparently NFL.com takes winning and losing streaks into consideration too. :)

Ravage!!!

Plus, Denver's style of football is very good for the playoffs. Great defense and a good running game. Thats what cold weather football is about.

not to mention if we keep their offense off the field longer, they can get cold and not play as well (or will need to keep warming up on sidelines)

I scanned through the major ones yesterday, and most had the Broncos in that 8-10 range. I think one of the major ones had them at 11.
