After a stretch in which Vance Joseph’s Broncos defense had surrendered 18 touchdowns over 25 possessions dating back to Week 2, the unit rallied just in time Sunday vs. Chicago.
Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph communicates on the sideline in the first quarter against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field October 01, 2023. This Chicago team is bad. Its offense has been bad. But it was rolling along just fine against the Broncos defense as it scored four touchdowns in five possessions after an opening punt.The Broncos reeled off the game’s final 24 points thanks to Russell Wilson and the offense, sure, but also thanks to Joseph’s defense.
In all, they gave up 130 points to the Commanders, Dolphins and Bears in a little more than 137 minutes of game time.“They hung in there and they fought when it would have been real easy not to,” head coach Sean Payton said.Broncos safety Justin Simmons missed his second straight game with a groin/hip injury. In his place Sunday against the Bears, second-year man Delarrin Turner-Yell made his second straight start.
Williams, who spent the offseason rehabilitating from a major knee injury suffered in early October last year, had two carries for no yards and three catches for nine before getting hurt.False starts.Right tackle Mike McGlinchey had two and now has flinched four times in the past three games. Center Lloyd Cushenberry, right guard Quinn Meinerz and left tackle Garett Bolles each picked up flags on Sunday, too.
Second-year defensive back Ja’Quan McMillian replaced Essang Bassey as the top nickel and veteran Fabian Moreau was in as Denver’s dime back.
