Aqib Talib

I am sure all of Broncos Country noticed the absence of Aqib Talib in the last three games. The secondary has looked a bit off.

There is a reason why John Elway signed him in free agency at the end of the embarrassing Super Bowl 48 loss. He can make the plays needed in the secondary.

There are times where his actions on and off the field have been out of character. But when he is on the field, he can make such a difference.

Take for example Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. His pick-six was such a game changer in the game and it led to the win. His two interceptions against the Buccaneers in Week 4 set the tone.

Talib is set to return from his back injury after the bye. Having the No Fly Zone back to full strength will really benefit the Denver Broncos in the final six games.
