Update: The Denver Broncos blow a 20-point lead and fall 27-23 to the Minnesota Vikings. Full recap.
The Denver Broncos have had two weeks to prepare for the Minnesota Vikings here in Week 11. As 10.5-point underdogs, they have a mountain to climb to topple a strong opponent on the road here.
The good news for Denver is that the Vikings are coming off a tough win last week that has left them with quite a few starters out for this game. If the Broncos can keep the pressure up on Kirk Cousins, they might be able to force him into some errant throws.
On the other side, Brandon Allen will need to keep the big play going while also finding a way to generate some long, sustained offensive drives. The longer he and the offense can keep the Broncos defense off the field the better in this game.
