It's funny; people are trying to justify how we're more deserving of #1 than Denver. It's OK that we aren't. Really. This team has a long climb to get back to where it was last year. It'll be OK. Really.

Carolina is no cupcake. They blew out the Giants 38-0 in the last game they played.
Who can't blow out the Giants?

The Giants scored 23 points against Denver, they scored 0 against Carolina.
Jags scored 17 against us and only 3 against Indy? Your point?
Each week is a different circumstance in the NFL. The Broncos still beat the Giants by 18 points. We still blew out the Jaguars when we beat them. Sometimes you get to scoring so much that defenses have small lapses and give up meaningliess points. That doesn't mean one team is better than the other

I won't be impressed with Denver until they beat some really good teams. Seattle's offense would look pretty damn good against Denver's schedule. Although we would have all backups in by the third quarter. lol

Of course it's different scenarios, it's all different from week to week, that's why you can't really base predictors off of the opponent. If that were the case, Indy would be favored to beat us this weekend.
Denver can't be blamed for their schedule. If you looked at our schedule and their schedule before the season started, and counted the first 4 games, they would have graded out fairly equal. Of course things change each week when the games are actually played. Denver, has thus far, showed they are the best in the AFC. We have had some injury issues and had a little trouble squeaking out our two road wins. Like I said earlier, everything thus far gives Denver a power poll nod, but that doesn't mean they are the better team head to head. A lot of that will come down to who is healthiest if we both make the Superbowl. I like our depth much better than Denver's, but right now, they don't have the injuries we do. We have lots of time to get right before we ever have to meet up with them though.
