Week 9: at Indianapolis Colts
The Broncos would suffer their first loss of the season to the Colts for the second time in three years. I am not sure what it is with the Broncos struggles with the Colts, but this game could have been won, but mistakes and other factors made the difference.
However, with losses, I am sure there can be a positive from the game. And I have Ron Greco to help out with that.
Positive Takeaway:
“I think a positive from that game is that the team kept fighting until the end. Despite interceptions and some bad bounces, not to mention bad luck, the Broncos kept fighting, kept trying to win.”
“The team killed themselves with penalties towards the end. But in short, the positive to take away was that the Broncos kicking and screaming mentality until the end. That mentality has served us well this season.”
A great way to look at it Ron. They never let the mentality of being behind hurt them and kept driving until the final whistle blew.
