3. Leading the league in points scored in 2013 (NFL Record)

The final game of 2013 did not go as planned for the Broncos, as they lost Super Bowl XLVIII, but the regular season was an absolute blast.

The offense was just unstoppable. The records they set were: 606 points scored, 76 touchdowns, four players with 10+ touchdowns, passing first downs (293), three games scoring 50+ points, 318 points scored in the second half of games during the season.

The biggest things on that list of accomplishments are the 50-burgers, as well as throwing 10 touchdowns each to four different players.  The offense was quarterback friendly, and it showed.

Manning was just the type of player that made sure the ball got into the hands of the right people, most of the time.

Denver also had 16 touchdowns on the ground. 10 of those were scored by former first-round running back Knowshon Moreno.

On defense, just one touchdown was scored—by Von Miller. That is even more proof that the offense was just absolutely dominant in 2013.

Oh, the memories. How we wish we could re-live them in live-action.
