Years of mediocrity
Going into our game, we can still finish anywhere from the number one seed to out of the playoffs entirely. Talk about crazy! How about we just control what we can control and actually, you know, win a game?

Andy Benoit previews the game in his column for MMQB:
http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2015/12/28/b...ht-nfl-week-16Noteworthy is that both second half disappearing acts came against defenses that had played zone coverage—often some version of Cover 2, with two safeties split over the top.
Osweiler struggled to process Pittsburgh’s help coverage concepts out of zone in the second half. To be fair, his supporting cast also floundered. Several different Broncos receivers had numerous route running snafus and dropped passes. Denver’s offensive line also rattled along the lines of inconsistency, most glaringly inside, at guard and center. The week before it was outside at tackle, where Raiders defensive end Khalil Mack ate up Michael Schofield and Ryan Harris for four second-half sacks. (Mack also had a fifth sack on an out-of-structure play.)
Two-high-safety zone coverages happens to be Cincinnati’s forte. We think of the Bengals defense, once coordinated by Mike Zimmer, as a blitz-heavy, double-A-gap pressure unit, with two linebackers walked up in the A-gaps between the center and guards in order to eliminate double-team possibilities on any specific pass rushers. However, under coordinator Paul Guenther, the Bengals have played more traditional, coverage-based football, in part because the key actor in the double-A-gap pressures, linebacker Vontaze Burfict, has been in and out of the lineup the past two seasons.
Burfict is in the lineup now, but given Denver’s ups and downs against zone, there’s little incentive to bring interior pressure. This is especially true when you consider that Denver’s stretch rushing attack naturally targets the perimeter. You can’t play double-A-gap against outside runs—the alignment gives blockers inherently favorable angles. The Bengals won’t even consider these inside blitzes unless it is third-and-10 or further. And in those instances, it makes more sense to keep bodies in coverage, giving the inexperienced Osweiler more to decipher.

Happy Gameday Broncos fans.

That's What it Does!
Biggest game of the year so far. Hopefully the defense smells blood in the water and our offense wakes up in the second half! GO BRONCOS!

According to Madden 16 in my living room we'll have 6 sacks, 1 ff, 2 int, and we'll win 31-6.
Go Broncos!

The importance of this game can't be overstated. If we lose, we're not winning the division.
