It’s time to recalibrate your expectations for the 2017 Broncos.
You’ll enjoy the rest of what figures to be an intriguing season more — and grumble less.
This isn’t a high-flying offense that’s going to amaze you every week. And won’t be.
This isn’t an overpowering team that’s going to blow people out.
This isn’t an experienced group that’s going to win with consistency.
But none of that means this team can’t compete for a Mountain West championship — just that you’ll have to appreciate tension and drama and accept less pure entertainment value.
