NFL Power Rankings: Where do Broncos land heading into Week 2 after surviving Titans?<\/a> originally appeared on The Sporting News<\/a><\/p>\n

The Denver Broncos<\/a> were far from impressive in defeating the Tennessee Titans in Week 1, but style points count for nothing in the official win-loss column. Officially, the Broncos are 1-0 and that’s all you can ask for.<\/p>\n

Bo Nix threw two interceptions and lost a fumble and the team had four turnovers. But they held Tennessee out of the end zone and still won by eight points despite a sloppy performance. While many will laugh at those who labeled the Broncos a dark horse Super Bowl contender, others are going to look at the glass as half full.<\/p>\n

When putting together his latest power rankings, Vinnie Iyer of The Sporting News<\/a> took all of that into consideration and very fairly put the Broncos at No. 11, the same place they were before the season started.<\/p>\n

“The\u00a0Broncos\u00a0didn’t expect Bo Nix to open up in a sloppy sophomore slump, but the good news is they found a missing groove in the running game and also played shutdown defense. They need to clean up some things before facing a tougher opponent”, wrote Iyer.<\/p>\n

That is all true, but Iyer didn’t sell the Broncos short like so many others have. In Week 2, the Broncos will take on a surging Colts team that moved up 11 spots in the rankings, the biggest jump of any team. A victory there would likely give the Broncos back much of the respect they had before the season started and move them into next week’s top 10.<\/p>\n
