It is preseason, is a shutout, seven sacks and an interception for the broncos en route to a 220 win over chicago in the preseason opener. Keep in mind they accomplished that without von miller, Demarcus Ware or aqib talib playing a snap in the game. Imagine adding those three as the preseason rolls on.
