The Denver Broncos moved into the Top 10 in total DVOA from Football Outsiders after their win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 3. They were just outside the mark last week, but another outstanding defensive effort paired with improvement in special teams helped offset the downward spiral the offense is experiencing.
Denver (10): I know, I know. Anyone who watched that 49ers-Broncos slogfest on Sunday Night Football has to wonder what on earth Denver is doing here. The answer is that they’ve played very good defense all season.
