Denver Broncos outside linebacker Bradley Chubb (55) sacks Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (1) in the fourth quarter at Empower Field at Mile High Nov. 20, 2020. 
No Von Miller? No Shelby Harris? No problem.
The Broncos’ orange rush tied its season-high with six sacks on Sunday, en route to a 20-13 win over the Dolphins at Empower Field at Mile High.
It’s the fifth time in three seasons in which Denver’s pass-rushers have reached that mark. And there’s one common result: The Broncos won.
Yes, the Broncos are on a five-game winning streak — and have won 10 of their past 11 — when they sack the opposing quarterback at least six times. The last loss was on Nov. 27, 2016, when they were defeated by the visiting Chiefs, 30-27, in overtime.
