When Cameron Dicker knocked home a walk-off field goal for the Chargers at SoFi Stadium in late September and dropped the Broncos to 1-2 on the season, few could have seen the next 15 weeks coming.
When Denver trailed Philadelphia, 17-3, early in the fourth quarter of Week 5, the idea that the Broncos would lose just one more game on the season — and that they’d come back to beat the defending champs — would have seemed laughable.
What unfolded over the fall, however, was a remarkable run for Sean Payton’s team. Fourteen wins despite trailing in all but two of them.
