After yet another loss, the Denver Broncos are now 3-8. The Chicago Bears (3-9) and Houston Texans (1-9-1) are the only teams in the league who have worse records entering Week 13 of the season.
Denver’s record might not be the worst in the NFL, but on paper, they look like they’re contending for “worst team in the NFL” status. Nate Davis of USA TODAY Sports agrees — he has the Broncos ranked 31st in his latest NFL power rankings.
Here is Davis’ commentary on Denver this week:
DL Mike Purcell to QB Russell Wilson, “Hey, buddy, congratulations on that 300th touchdown pass. You’ll overtake Elway with the next one!”
