What happened: The Broncos spent Thursday highlighting a Hall of Fame safety stopping by their new training headquarters. That spotlight lands one day after Denver's defense was tagged for 248 yards allowed after missed tackles in a 31-10 loss.

Why it matters: Facilities buzz does not matter much if the defense cannot finish routine plays. A 26.4% missed tackle rate ranking third-worst since 2022 is the kind of number that makes contender talk feel premature.
