‘The Broncos have the NFL’s No. 1 run defense, allowing an average of just 51.5 yards in wins over San Francisco and St. Louis. Take away a 31-yard run by the 49ers’ Reggie Barlow and a 15-yard run by the Rams’ Marshall Faulk, and Denver has yielded only 57 yards on 31 carries – a 1.8-yard average.’
