Most who know me know I am a die-hard Denver Broncos fan.  This year, however, has been a big surprise.  With off-season turmoil of hiring a new coach, losing a pro-bowl quarterback and a handful of disgruntled players, it looked to be a lost year.  I predicted that they would not win more than five games.

As they stand today, the Broncos are first in the AFC West at 6-1.  Much of the success has to do with the coaches and the game preparation.  Careful planning to exploit opponents weaknesses and play to the Broncos strengths have meant the difference.  Even with what many would consider to be a pedestrian quarterback (at best), they have won all but one game.
