Broncos starting DT Derek Wolfe to miss time with fractured elbow (1 Viewer)

[St. Geezy]

A bad night for the Broncos got worse when they lost starting defensive end Derek Wolfe during their loss to the Raiders.

Wolfe told Denver7 he has a hairline fracture in his right elbow and will miss some time.

The 6-foot-5, 285-pound Wolfe has started all nine games this season. He’s the team’s best run-stopping defensive lineman and has also recorded 4.5 sacks this season, second on the team behind Von Miller.

Between a pretty stagnant offense and a very banged up defense the Saints are getting the Broncos at the right time...........

This right here.

They're going to have to shut us down with their defense completely to win this game. With the protection Brees has been getting, I just don't see that happening. Our defense has been forcing some turnovers lately and as long as they stay out of that soft zone that keeps giving up chunks of yards for the majority of the game, I like our chances.
