Similar Stories to Broncos Show Fans That Defense Can Be Fun To Watch, Too on Bing News

(AP) — Broncos fans are adjusting from the old aerial fireworks show and realizing that points are indeed precious in the NFL and that defense is pretty fun to watch, too. Even with Peyton Manning off to his worst start since his rookie season, on pace for fewer touchdown passes and more sacks than ever, the Broncos (4-0) are atop their AFC West perch as usual. Manning has maneuvered the Broncos into the end zone or field goal range in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter in all four games so far, and Denver's defense has come up with a key takeaway in the closing minutes every week. On Sunday, Manning drove the Broncos to the tie-breaking field goal with 1:51 left and then turned things over to the defense, which collected its league-leading 18th sack and 11th takeaway to seal a 23-20 win over Minnesota. —Safety David Bruton Jr.'s interception with 3:37 left and the Broncos clinging to a five-point lead gave Manning the ball back and his insurance touchdown toss gave Denver a 24-12 win at Detroit. The Broncos are going down to the final whistle "kicking and screaming," exactly what GM John Elway complained they didn't do under former coach John Fox, whose teams were outscored 150-66 in their final game in the playoffs during Fox's four years in Denver. Miller, who's been fined $11,567 by the NFL for unsportsmanlike conduct for his rendition of a Key & Peele comedy skit during a sack dance earlier this season, did the three-hip-pumps dance Sunday when he came out of the tunnel for pregame introductions.
