Episode notes
ADVICE

Pressure The Inexperienced QB

  • Do attack Jared Stidham with varied pressure and disguise to force quick decisions.
  • Mix blitzes, stunts, and man coverage when Carlton Davis and Christian Gonzalez are available.
ADVICE

Compensate For The Lost QB

  • Do rally the roster and elevate other units with Bo Nix out to cover the QB dropoff.
  • Expect the defense and offensive line to compensate and create game-changing plays.
INSIGHT

Red Zone Slippage Is Costly

  • Red zone efficiency has slipped for the Broncos since the bye and it can decide the game.
  • Settling for field goals instead of touchdowns will limit their ability to win tight playoff games.
