The Broncos defense surrendered 13 points on only 139 yards of total offense, registering one sack in Thursday's win over the Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
This Christmas, the Broncos defense was given the gift of a struggling Chiefs offense led by a third-string QB making his first career start. The Denver unit took full advantage, shutting down the Chiefs on the ground and through the air. The Broncos feature a strong defense, but the task will be more difficult against the Chargers in Week 18.
The Broncos' D/ST logged five sacks and allowed 34 points in Sunday's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
Denver's defense had a bad game on Sunday. Jacksonville put up the most points on them out of any team this season with 34, and the Broncos weren't able to log any big turnovers to help turn the tide of the game. This unit should bounce back and have a good game against the Chiefs on Christmas Day, however.
The Denver Broncos D/ST held off a strong Packers offense for a 34-26 win on Sunday. They sacked QB Jordan Love three times and picked him off twice.
Fantasy Impact
The Broncos defense showed once again they are a championship caliber unit. It may not have been the cleanest game, but holding the Packers to two offensive touchdowns and forcing an additional two turnovers on downs should count as a success. They’ll be a nice start against the next week, even against the rising Jaguars.
The Denver Broncos D/ST racked up four sacks and a special teams touchdown against the Raiders on Sunday in their 24-17 win.
Fantasy Impact
The Broncos' defense had its moments against the Raiders, but didn't put up a standout performance against the struggling offense. Their fantasy day was greatly improved by a punt touchdown return by Marvin Mims. It might be best to find a different option at D/ST next week with the Broncos facing the Packers.
The Broncos' D/ST logged two sacks and one interception while allowing 26 points in Sunday's overtime win over the Washington Commanders.
Fantasy Impact
Denver's defense has been arguably the best in the league so far this season, so it was a bit disappointing to see that they allowed Washington to score 26 points in a close overtime win. They weren't able to do much outside of two sacks and a pick, which left them with a disappointing fantasy total. They should bounce back in a great matchup against the Raiders next week, however.
