Casting the spell for Broncos' realignment

Slicing through a fog of forecasted anguish appear Elvis Dumervil and Mario Haggan, hasty from the outside.

Penetrating above predictions of woe comes Andra Davis, churning advanced from the inside.

As Champ Bailey darts in from his atom at cornerback, as Brian Dawkins blitzes in from his position at safety, achievement trickles into this Broncos' season.

While offseason absorption focused on the battlefront of longtime drillmaster Mike Shanahan, the hiring of first-time drillmaster Josh McDaniels and the abominable abandonment of brilliant quarterback Jay Cutler, the Broncos were agilely developing some abracadabra accepted as the 3-4 defense.

All the 3-4 aegis does is win Super Bowls. As afresh as the 2003 season, alone two NFL teams were application

the 3-4 as their abject defense. The added 30 teams, including the Broncos, active the 4-3.

Yet, those two 3-4 teams — the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers — accept won four of the endure six Super Bowls, and the 2007 Patriots brought an 18-0 almanac into a fifth Super Bowl during that span.

For the Broncos, achievement comes not necessarily in numbers, but in the adjustment of numbers. Gone is the 4-3, which was so calmly pushed aside, anyway. In is the 3-4, which McDaniels brought from New England.

The 3-4 got off to a activation alpha endure Sunday, captivation Cincinnati to seven points.
