Kicking and screaming win exactly what Broncos needed

Was it pretty? Heck no. But it was a character-defining win for Denver when it needed most.

John Elway wanted kicking and screaming.

For better or worse, the Denver Broncos have delivered. In a big way. That might give all of Broncos Country a heart attack by the time the season ends, but this team never gives up. The moment is never too big.

Wait, the Broncos? Yes. The Broncos.

It was by no means pretty, but it's a character-check win and that's what teams need this time of year. That's how you win in the playoffs, and the 20-17 overtime win by the Broncos on Monday Night over the Cincinnati Bengals was a playoff win.
