The Broncos will look to Del Rio to provide stability at defensive coordinator. Jack is Denver’s 7th new defensive coordinator in as many seasons.
The Patriots will move on to the face the winner of the Houston/Baltimore game in the AFC Championship game, while the Broncos will head home and evaluate a season filled with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.
