Related Topics: Denver Broncos

Through five games, the Denver Broncos have a -5 turnover differential that ranks 28th in the NFL. That number includes just four defensive takeaways - all interceptions and no fumbles. Meanwhile opposing teams have nabbed six interceptions and three fumbles.

Broncos defensive coordinator Joe Woods made the turnover game a focal point this week in practice.

“In terms of the fumbles, we had a turnover circuit yesterday at practice,” Woods said of generating turnovers. “I made a cutup tape of just guys creating takeaways—just different teams throughout the NFL. In terms of the turnovers, the thing for us is we’re doing a lot of things to create matchups for Von and other guys on defense with a lot of different pressure packages, things we’re doing with our stunts and how we’re moving guys around.
