Broncos

DENVER — In the wake of a loss that ended the Broncos' unbeaten start to their home slate and dropped the team below .500, Russell Wilson stood in the press room at Empower Field at Mile High and didn't mince words.

"It's very simple," said the quarterback after a 12-9 loss in which the Broncos squandered a fourth-quarter lead. "At the end of the day, I've got to be better. I've got to be better."

On a night in which the Denver defense sacked Colts quarterback Matt Ryan six times and held Indianapolis without a touchdown, the offense was unable to hold up its end.
