Yeah, but he hasn't really been up against any terrific teams yet.
Ravens, Chiefs, Lions, Vikings, Raiders, Browns
The Ravens and Lions were 6th seed of the AFC / NFC last year, the others didn't make the playoffs at all. The Ravens are ordinarily a good team, but they haven't been playing well at all this year.
So I think it's safe to say that even without Manning looking like his best days are behind him, the Broncos have had a pretty easy schedule so far. Just wait til week 8, and I'm sure Aaron Rodgers' Packers will make them 6 - 1.
(emphasis is mine)
Terrific teams?!? We've played division 1A teams and barely gotten by. A good team will beat the Broncos. A terrific one will shred them.

Vick: 3 for 8, 6 yards.
Landry Jones: 8 for 12, 168 yards 2 TDs.
Steel, your boys can basically rest their starters against the Chiefs.

Rex Ryan is proving that he is, in fact, the biggest fraud.
Opening drive touchdown for the Lions. The Vikings are going down.*

That was brutal. Our offensive line was nearly non-existent for that game. Stafford was sacked a career-high seven times.
No turnovers though. Silver linings, FTW.

If you guys are just gonna let him get beat up like that, we'll take him.
Manning ain't what he used to be and Stafford would be a better fit for what Kubiak wants to run anyway.
