Most of the chatter with the Denver Broncos this year has been due to the defense. Nik Bonitto and Patrick Surtain II have again been elite, and Bonitto has hit a new level. Coming into Week 6, Bonitto had seven sacks. The young pass rusher added another sack to his total against the Jets and is now already at eight this year.
It's not crazy to think that he could hit the double-digit sacks after the team's Week 7 game against the New York Giants. It's also not crazy to think that that he's the favorite for the Defensive Player of the Year award, and it would be historical to see two Denver Broncos win the award in two-straight years.
