The Denver Post
Denver fell to 2-2 after a 24-14 loss to San Francisco, with injuries to cornerbacks Pat Surtain II and Riley Moss and receiver Pat Bryant amid a stalled offense. Entering Week 5, national experts varied on the Broncos’ standing, reflecting concerns about play-calling and a lack of explosive plays despite a defense that remains stout. The team faces a West Coast rematch vs. the Chargers as momentum remains uncertain and questions linger about whether Sean Payton or Davis Webb will redefine the offense. The broader narrative tracks a high-profile schedule, mixed results, and a path to stability as October progresses.
