This is the problem with Denver
The Denver Broncos, who had the worst defense ever measured by DVOA through 4 games, also have the worst defense ever measured by DVOA through 5 games. To give you an idea of just how bad this start is on defense, let's take a look at where the Broncos rank in several key areas: 36.2 PPG (32nd) 450.6 Total YPG (32nd)1 day ago
Historically bad defense
Feel sorry for Wilson he should have stayed in Seattle.
Do better, Deno. Those averages are skewed by their awful game against the Dolphins. In a small sample size of just 4 or 5 games, one outlier can have a big effect on the mean.
The defense played well enough against the Jets and in the season opener against the Raiders. In both games, the Broncos had the ball in the 4th quarter with a chance to have a game-winning drive. In both games, Wilson failed to deliver in the clutch. Had he come through, the Broncos would be 3-2 instead of 1-4.
