Entering Sunday’s home game against Cleveland, the Broncos rank first among AFC teams in rushing defense, allowing just 91.0 ground yards per game.
Among all NFL Teams, that’s topped only by Tampa Bay, which is allowing 83.3 rushing yards per game. But, frankly, one reason Tampa Bay ranks so high in rush defense is because opponents are passing like crazy against the Buccaneers, who rank last in the NFL pass defense by allowing 310 yards per game through the air.
