Great victory over the Jets -

Again, the Broncos seem to win when they are not favored, and they lose when they are expected to win. At this point they are solid in the number one position in the AFC West. The game with the Jets was all about the Broncos. Great effort by all the guys.

Jets have been called the "clear favorite to win the AFC", so cleaning their clocks was really a marvel for the Broncos.

Denver's passing game once again looked strong, led by Jay Cutler who had yet another great showing on the road (currently the leading passer for week 13) especially with the standout performance from tight end Tony Scheffler, who caught seven passes for 90 yards.

Peyton Hillis continued to impress and exceed expectations, starting at running back and rushing 22 times for 129 yards and a touchdown against the Jet's defense. He was also the only back that Denver used in the game. What happens when he gets hurt?

Eddie Royal also came back from a bad showing against Oakland to catch a big 59-yard touchdown pass to put the Broncos back up. Nice job Eddie, you are a dynamo!

Now I am certain Broncos will win the AFC West. They are just about a certain playoff spot at home, and all they have to do is to win 2 or 3 of the next 4 games. San Diego is in the toilet, making it easier for the Broncos to be inconsistant, but not for much longer.

Overall the Broncos are a thrill ride this year!
