Broncos at the bye: Defensive rankings high, but improved pass-rush, takeaways needed (Ryan O'Halloran, The Denver Post)

Broncos coach Vic Fangio is aware of his defense's statistical standing: Top-10 in the NFL in 11 categories.

The Broncos are fourth in fewest yards (309.7 per game) and passing yards (202.1) allowed, seventh on third down (34.2%) and ninth in fewest points (18.9).

But the Broncos will return from their bye weekend with a 3-6 record, leaving Fangio wanting more.
