The Denver Broncos entered their bye week in what must feel like the Twilight Zone. They're a (un)perfect 6-0 and yet, if you take the temperature of the fans and Denver media, it feels like their 0-6.
Such is the nature of the Manning Effect. Add to that the mountain of expectations that come with anything John Elway has his name on and it can become an Everest of pressure that can squash a lesser team.
It remains to be seen whether the expectations will derail the 2015 Denver Broncos. However, with excellent leadership in the locker room, the coaching staff and the front office, the Broncos are set up to weather almost any storm.
