Because the Steelers didn't play this week, there's nothing to update on their front. So instead, let's take a look at the Denver Broncos season to date performing in the red zone. As always, many thanks to Comcast and their new and critically aclaimed Red Zone Channel for their sponsorship of BTSC and the other many fine SB Nation football blogs this season.
On to Denver's performance. These tables were taken directly from Mile High Report. It was only updated through Week 7, so below the tables, you can find their performance against Baltimore. As you'll see, they've not been all that great on offense in the red zone - having to settle for a high number of field goals. On defense though they've been quite solid, particularly the first four weeks of the season.
