Denver scenario: home-field advantage, altitude, and a familiar environment may help the Broncos slow the game down and protect their quarterback; this scenario is limited by the inferior record, the loss at San Francisco, and the short week. Seattle scenario: the better known record, the recent win, and the defensive reputation highlighted by the club may support a disciplined plan; this scenario is limited by the trip to Denver, the Thursday schedule, and uncertainty about fatigue and the roster after Week 5.

The weather, wind, Week 5 results, and comparable efficiency statistics remain unknown.
