By the way “go ______(insert team name whoever plays Broncos next weekend)

Broncos factual playoff breakdown;

Drop pass rank broncos as a team: 2nd in the league, bEngram 8 drops on the season out of 58 catchable passes or at a rate of 13% of drops on catchable passes . RJ Harvey 6 drops out of 53 catchable passes or drops a pass on 11% of catchable passes. Sutton has 8 drops in 58 catchable passes or 7% rate.


In fact Engram is # 6 in the league in total drops Sutton is 7 and Harvey is 15. These are the drops that kill drives and cause games to be closer than they should be or need to be

Let’s diagnose the run game. Harvey is not cutting it. He’s been helpful in the pass game as a receiver (but also has the drops mentioned above) and he’s been an effective scorer with 12 total touchdowns. That being said, Harvey rushed for 540 yards on 146 carries or just 3.6 YPC. His run success rate out of every RB in the league with minimum of 85 carries has a success rate ranks 50th of 55 RBs- ouch. By comparison, Dobbins ranks 18th of 55 RBs.


Payton play calling has not been great. Way too many throws behind the line or at the line. It’s small ball, too conservative no deep shots making this team have to go inch by inch down the field. Refuses to air it out or get aggressive despite when the Broncos have trailed and Bo Nix has needed to play 2 minute offense he’s at his best and has sliced defenses up in that situation. In that situation he’s got a 86QBR which is 3rd in the league a 95.6 passer rating and 4 TDs.
In the last 7 games Nix only has 3 picks and 9 total TDs. He’s clearly not the reason they are not doing better.

Back to the Payton play calling he still refuses to let his biggest playmaker get involved. Marvin Mims is the fastest player on this team and has good hands. He has caught multiple TDs from Nix of over 50 yards yet Payton lets him touch the ball like 3-4 times on offense for short dink and dunk plays.

Also, Bo Nix led the league in passing attempts. This should not be the case- Payton needs to run the ball more but as I mentioned Harvey is not effective in that role he’s too small.

Penalties - this team is 5th in the league in penalties. Penalties end drives, take points off the board, and give the opponent yards and points

The take aways and I post these same things week after week;

The Payton play calling is too conservative too dink and dunk and not aggressive enough. He’s not allowing the most explosive weapon on the team to touch the ball. Payton’s a large reason this team is playing close games — period and he’s not calling enough run plays

The running Game with Harvey is not going to cut it. He’s a good 3rd down back but they have to use McGloughlin more he’s a much better power runner.

Dropped passes in the playoffs will make you lose games, these drops can’t happen

The penalties need to stop. This is on the coach he doesn’t have this team disciplined enough

This is the duplicated thread. You should post this in the real playoff thread.
