Denver's Run Defense: More Holes Than a Swiss Cheese Avalanche
Let's face it, folks, Denver's run defense in the past season was about as effective as a chocolate teapot stopping a runaway bison. They were porous, like a sieve in a rainstorm. Opposing running backs practically waltzed through untouched, racking up yards like a grocery cart on a coupon day.
But fear not, Broncos fans! We're here to inject some humor (and maybe a smidge of reality) into this whole situation.
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.

| How Is Denver Against The Run |
So, how bad was it, really?
Let's just say opposing running backs probably dreamt of facing Denver's D-line. Here are some not-so-fun facts:
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
- Denver ranked dead last in the NFL against the run, giving up a whopping 144 yards per game on average. That's like getting a free first down every other drive!
- Running backs were treated like royalty, with a rush success rate that would make even Barry Sanders blush.
A glimmer of hope (maybe?)
Now, before you all drown your sorrows in Rocky Mountain oysters, there's a silver lining. They say even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then, and Denver's defense has shown some signs of life lately. They've tightened things up a bit, focusing more on stopping the run and forcing turnovers.
QuickTip: Pause when something clicks.

QuickTip: Scan the start and end of paragraphs.
