Daily Links – The character of this team

“Maybe we were up on the high horse and forgot about the small things that got us to 6-0,” cornerback Andre Goodman said. “I’m pretty amped about what I’m expecting Monday in terms of how the guys are going to respond. I feel like I already know the character of this team, but I feel like how we play Monday will show the character of this team.”

I thought the new character of this team was the type that never gets on that high horse to begin with.  Hopefully the Broncos never get blown out again.
