On wild-card weekend, many of the league's top defenses will take center stage in hopes that they can get on a run like the one the Broncos went on three years ago to win a Super Bowl title. "I think it's still definitely possible," said Davis, a member of that title-winning team. "I don't feel like it has to be 51-54. It really doesn't. I feel like you can really stop teams if you play close defense, you play tight on receivers, play great in man coverage and you can really stop people." (AP Photo/Rick Scuteri, File)
