Bad defenses in the NFL are a liability, and can often be the difference between a winning and losing season. They can give up big plays, miss tackles, and allow opposing offenses to score at will. This can be frustrating for fans and players alike, and can lead to a lot of losses.

Why do the Denver Broncos have the worst defense in the NFL?

The Broncos have a talented roster, including Russell Wilson, Patrick Surtain II, and Tremon Smith, but they have struggled to stop opposing offenses. One possible explanation is that the Broncos are still adjusting to Sean Payton’s new defensive scheme. Another possibility is that the Broncos have some key injuries on defense.
