Hate to be the bearer of the bad news, but for a team that has spent much of a football season talking about controlling its own destiny, it might be time for the Broncos to concentrate on the task at hand instead.
Destiny is so big after all, that whole seemingly inevitable or necessary succession of events thing is a lot to wrap themselves around.
So the Broncos might want to turn their attention to something other than being in control of their future because the here and now is kicking in their teeth.
Yes, after a 30-23 loss to Buffalo on Sunday at Invesco Field at Mile High, the Broncos sit at 8-7 with one game remaining and only one more chance to win their way into the playoffs.
The Broncos need to leave destiny on the higher ground, roll up their sleeves and get some dirt under their fingernails.
"You want it to be easy, do something else," linebacker Jamie Winborn said. "Welcome to the NFL, you know, that's what I say. It's never going to be easy, so let's go do something when it's hard."
