Denver Broncos

Gardner Minshew II has captivated the nation, and the Denver Broncos were the latest victim of Minshew Mania on Sunday. Minshew (who threw for 213 yards and two touchdowns) led the 26-24 comeback, as he displayed his knack for escaping the pocket and the crosshairs of pass rushers Von Miller and Bradley Chubb.

Alongside the dominant performance from Leonard Fournette, who had 29 carries for an exceptional 225 yards on the ground (he also had two catches for 20 yards) the Jacksonville Jaguars went into Empower Field and came away with their second win of the season.

The Denver Broncos are spiraling down the AFC West standings, and like the aforementioned Miami Dolphins, one has to wonder whether John Elway and company should be looking ahead to the 2020 NFL Draft as well.
