The Broncos defensive backs surround wide receivers like glue and Aqib Talib already has an interception taken to the house, while Chris Harris has an interception of his own. Both Broncos corners are the staple of the No Fly Zone. Talib picked off Andrew Luck for a pick-six, while Harris’ used incredible awareness to find the ball off a Carolina Panthers wide receiver for his first of the season.

Jameis Winston is second in the NFL in passing attempts (142). This will allow Talib and Harris plenty of opportunity in coverage to jump routes for a turnover. The other member of the No Fly Zone, Bradley Roby is still searching for an interception on the season, but Talib and Harris are primed for center stage against Winston.

Winston does do a tremendous job of completing his passes, but he has yet to face a secondary as deep and talented like the Broncos. It is two fold. The Broncos have not faced Mike Evans yet with this new constructed secondary, but facing Kelvin Benjamin was enough to prepare for Evans. Winston will throw interceptions to Aqib Talib and Chris Harris. Talib will catch his on Evans and Harris will pick his off Winston, while covering Jackson.
