The Denver Broncos have a chance to improve to 5-3 on the season with a victory at home. It’s a crucial game for them, and they’re in a really good spot to get the win. According to one Denver fan, “They have the opportunity to improve to 5-3 heading into two big games. But first things first, the Broncos need to keep rolling on Sunday.”
When looking at the stats, it’s clear that both teams have their strengths and weaknesses. Carolina is ranked twenty-ninth in total offense, twenty-third in rushing offense, twenty-eighth in passing offense, and twenty-seventh in scoring. On the other hand, Denver is ranked twenty-seventh in total offense, thirteenth in rushing offense, twenty-ninth in passing offense, and tied for twenty-first in scoring.
