Traveling to Miami is never easy, however, the Dolphins have struggled so much at home this season that the Broncos will be very confident in being able to rack up a 3rd straight win.
Florida golden boy Tim Tebow is a crowd favorite for his incredible college success for the Florida Gators. It's expected to almost feel like a home game for the Broncos, with rumors of there being roughly as many Tebow jerseys, whether Gators or Broncos, as there will be Dolphins jerseys. It should be an exciting game for two teams trying to put themselves into a better position going into the second half of the season.

| Game Notes | | The Broncos have been shocking on run D all season, fortunately for them though, Reggie Bush will be out for this game. However Daniel Thomas is still a significant threat. Miami have been terrible at home so far this season, so Denver will look for that to continue, and to pick up their 3rd straight win, in an effort to take control of their Division, while Miami hopes to get back to .500 and slowly try and catch up to the Patriots who have an iron rule of the AFC East. |
