The 2025 Denver Broncos pass defense was good, but not great. They have a chance to be great this season, but what does it mean to be a great pass defense. I discussed the defense as a whole earlier this off-season.
In order for a defense to be one of the best ever at defending the pass, they have to be able to cover as well as rush the passer. The 2024 Bronco defense was good at both - leading the league in sacks and finishing sixth in passer rating allowed. The additions and returns could have the 2025 Bronco pass defense in the conversation with the best ever.
