We want to hear from you – call the winner and the final score for Monday Night’s game in New England. Take the poll and dish it out in the comments. Winner gets week-long bragging rights. Here’s Kyle’s take —

The Broncos enter New England with the 32nd ranked pass defense in the league. Hard to imagine with corners like Champ Bailey and Dre Bly, but the lack of pass rush and trouble at the safety position has really exposed the Broncos defense this season. Will the Patriots be able to take advantage?

Probably not. Just last week the 32nd ranked pass defense came to New England and held the Patriots to 10 points – the San Diego Chargers (now ranked 31st thanks to the game). Matt Cassel and his offensive line couldn’t get the job done.

The Broncos have the #1 offense in the AFC – many question the running game, but the Broncos have the most rushing yards in the AFC, as well as the most passing yards. If they avoid turnovers the Broncos should put up 30-40 points on the Patriots.

The Prediction: Broncos 34, Patriots 21.

    I think that the broncos will work diligently this week on securing the ball, and eliminating stupid turnovers. If they succeed in holding onto the ball, the offense should be able to score at will on a terrible defense.

    Now on to the defense. The uninspiring Denver defensive line has a chance to get some pressure on Cassel this week with the injuries to New England’s O-line. If they can make him hurry his throws and not allow him to go all the way through his progressions, Champ and Dre may get to show off their ball skills.

    The Broncos need to make a statement here. They need to say, the chargers scored 30, we’re going to put up 40. Let’s quiet the haters out there.

    What do you guys think the odds are of Torian getting some PT? I would say about 25% but that is just an educated guess. Might be smart to give him another couple weeks to build strength before bringing him back on.

  • Awesome, Austin

    Torian is not playing my guess. I think the Broncos win 24-17.

    The Broncos will wake up for this one. The surely worked on turnovers all week and will come prepared. I’m not saying this as a Broncos fan, but as an objective observer. As long as that work pays off, I really feel like we can come away with a win here.

    Offense will have a good day. Defense stuggles, but comes up with plays when it counts. Our defense will bend, but won’t break.

    You honestly think that the Broncos are gonna win big in a primetime game at the Razor? C’mon, lets get serious here. The Patriots are a proud franchise, and they won’t get humiliated at home on Monday Night Football.

    I predictive bronco 27 patrot 13 guy, all day.

  • Fan_From_Spian

    My main concern is turnovers, and the Pats are quite good at cousing them. But Cutler is a way better QB then Castle and thats what matters at the end of the day.

    this will be hard fought and the losing team will look at a hand full of plays and say if only this had gone our way. The game will still be in the balance in the 4th and it won’t be over till the 2 minute warning. Broncos defense will improve and play good for 90% of the plays and make you tear your hair out on the other 10%. Champ and moss will either have an eric battle or the ball won’t go anywhere near them all game and they may as well just sit down on the turf and tea and cake.

    Cutler will throw at least 2 passes he shouldn’t and marshall will start one of his crazy runs after a catch and then remember he shouldn’t and almost take a knee. And my final thought? Andre hall takes one to the house from over 40 yards.

    So i’m going for

    Patriots 16
    Nate webster’s helmet 2
