The Denver Broncos have their work cut out for them in  Week 2.

Still reeling from a loss on Monday night to the Tennessee Titans, the Broncos must now head to Heinz Field on a short week to battle the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Steelers came into this season with questions of their own, mostly surrounding their long-time quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who missed most  all of last season. However, most of those questions seemed to get answered last week when the Steelers defeated the New York Giants.

The Broncos gave one away against the Titans and have left themselves in a tough spot to start the season as a result. Much of the blame for the loss has gone to head coach Vic Fangio and his clock management at the end of the game.

But I’m not going to pile on here. This will be a look at  players on the field and the difference they can make in the game. If the Broncos are going to get past the Steelers, which most don’t expect them to do, each of these players will have to bring much more than they did on Monday night.

If not, then the Broncos could easily be at 0-2 for the second year in a row.
