P.J. Locke of the Denver Broncos described the team's defensive performance as 'ugly' during their recent 41-32 victory over the Cleveland Browns. He noted that the game tested their chemistry and connection, especially in high-pressure moments.

Locke highlighted a crucial interception by Ja'Quan McMillian that turned the game around, along with another pick by Cody Barton that sealed the win. Despite allowing a record 475 passing yards to Jameis Winston, the Broncos improved to 8-5, keeping their playoff hopes alive.
