The Broncos’ changes this offseason leaned heavily on the offensive side. The defense remained one of the NFL’s top units in 2016, but inside those meeting rooms they aren’t content with remaining status quo.
Denver’s defense again will be the face of the team. The defensive leaders already have bought into the urge by Vance Joseph and Joe Woods to not except pretty good as good enough.
“My message to the whole group this year was that we have to reset. I feel like after the first year we won the Super Bowl we were flying high,” said Woods, the Broncos’ defensive backs coach the past two years who now is the defensive coordinator.
