Denver Broncos Vs. Indianapolis Colts Sunday Night NFL  Football Picks : denver broncos vs indianapolis colts december 13 The Denver Broncos shocked the NFL by starting perfect on the season, the Indianapolis Colts—well not so much.

The Broncos (8-4) sailed through their first six games, winning all of them, but came back to Earth when they lost four straight. Now, winners of two straight and leaders in the AFC Wild-Card race, Denver can show that they have truly come back by handing the Colts (12-0) their first loss of the season and put a stop to their 21-game regular season winning streak.

Denver is looking for a big win over a quality opponent. They defeated the New York Giants on Thanksgiving at home, but most figured the Giants’ were heading in the wrong direction until they dismantled the Dallas Cowboys last Sunday. They followed that up with an easy 44-13 win over the division rival Kansas City Chiefs, in which they ran for a season-high 245 yards on the ground.

The biggest surprise of the Broncos season had been their defense, but during their losing streak it resorted to looking like one of the worst in the league that Denver had over the past couple of seasons, but they limited have allowed an average of just 244.5 total yards during their two-game winning streak.

Two-game winning streaks are merely a drop in the bucket for the team going for the NFL record for consecutive regular season wins. A win on Sunday will give Indianapolis the honor, snapping the record set from 2006-2008 by the New England Patriots.

In the Colts’ latest win, 27-17 over a surging Tennessee Titans team last Sunday, Indianapolis clinched the AFC South title for the sixth time in seven years and have moved one-step closer to the inevitable outcome of having a first-round bye and the playoffs going through Indianapolis.

It is no surprise that Peyton Manning is once again leading the onslaught with an NFL-best 3685 yards. Manning is on pace for another MVP season and has had quite a solid supporting staff with Reggie Wayne going over 1000 yards receiving last week and tight end Dallas Clark knocking on the door with 859.

Manning threw for a pedestrian (for Peyton) 193 yards with a more Peyton-like three touchdowns the last time these AFC foes met in September of 2007, a 38-20 Colts win in Indianapolis. Denver last won on the road against the Indianapolis Colts in 2003 and have lost seven of the last 10 overall.
