ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For decades, losing was not a Denver Broncos problem.
The Broncos moved from season to season usually making the playoffs and never dipping too far below .500. From 1973 to 2017 they didn't have back-to-back losing seasons.
But now, sitting at 0-4, after going 6-10 last season and 5-11 the season before that, they have a locker room full of players who have not lived the tradition, seen the success or felt the consistency of previous successes. Instead, they are in what wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders simply called "the world of suck," a team that is 20-32 and on its third head coach since winning Super Bowl 50 four seasons ago.
