When the Denver Broncos lost to the Kansas City Chiefs for the 7th time in a row there were several obvious issues. The team is undisciplined. The offensive line is a liability Bradley Chubb Jersey , still. The defense can’t stop the tight end, still. But the one big takeaway for me has to be Bill Musgrave’s play calling.As Ian St. Clair and I discussed on the MHR Radio Podcast in our postgame recap, it seems as if Musgrave is incapable of creating a game plan that the offense can execute. The offensive line struggles aside, for some reason Musgrave continues to find ways to take a simple approach that is working, and complicate it with unnecessary attempts at fancy or cute plays.Maybe Musgrave wants the world to think he is an offensive genius in the same vane as the Los Angeles Rams Sean McVay, or even Andy Reid. He isn’t https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Andy-Janovich-Jersey , and all he is doing is convincing the world that he can’t recognize a successful formula if it is shoved down his throat with a spoon.As we said on the podcast, ask any fan what seems to be the thing that works best for the offense. It usually sounds something like, “run the damn ball.” After eight weeks of football, the recipe for offensive success is as clear as cold Rocky Mountain water. Run the ball, use play action, and move Case Keenum outside of the pocket.I am not blowing anyone’s mind here. Phillip Lindsay averaged 5.3 yards per carry Matt Paradis Color Rush Jersey , and Devontae Booker averaged 8.7. This isn’t rocket science. I wrote about this problem earlier in the week. The Chiefs offense is so good that they scare teams away from running the ball. Denver didn’t necessarily abandon the run, but they seemed to move away from it as the game wore on. They rushed the ball 30 times, and passed it 34, but that doesn’t really tell the story.This isn’t about stats. This is about making the decision to choose an identity. As I watched the game I couldn’t help but wonder why Musgrave seemingly chose to run plays that overcomplicated things. The failed flea flicker may seem like the best example, but there were others. The 3rd and 2 left end run to Emmanuel Sanders that lost 6 yards and led to a 55 yard field goal that Brandon McManus pushed wide. That cost the team points.At the halfway point in the season the one big takeaway from the Broncos loss to the Chiefs is that everyone who watches the team knows their identity. The only people who don’t seem to know are Bill Musgrave and Vance Joseph. Not exactly a trait that builds confidence. Not to worry Broncos Country, this will all be over soon.The MHR Radio Podcast is now on iTunes Carlos Henderson Jersey , Google Play, Spotify, Acast, Stitcher, TuneIn and a few other podcast hosts.

When John Elway decided to move on from Vance Joseph as the head coach of the Denver Broncos https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Ronald-Leary-Jersey , everyone knew change and upheaval was necessarily coming. It started with a week-long search for the next head coach that ultimately settled on Vic Fangio who was the defensive coordinator for the league-best defense of the Chicago Bears.From there, it took some times to gather up all of the assistants with a speed bump along the way after Elway and Fangio came to an impasse with Gary Kubiak over offensive philosophy and assistant hires that led to Kubiak leaving Denver for the Minnesota Vikings. The dust has all settled and we now have a brand new defensive-minded coaching staff to discuss with the Denver Broncos. Head Coach: Vic FangioFangio is one of the NFL’s most respected defensive minds and has coached some of the best defenses over the past eight seasons with both the San Francisco 49ers and Bears. His hiring signals that Elway is looking to retain the defensive greatness that led to their Super Bowl 50 title. Offensive Coordinator: Rich ScangarelloKubiak’s departure opened the door for what Elway had hinted at all along, which was bringing in someone younger with a strong background in college concepts. The hiring of Scangarello is likely to be Elway’s biggest risk here, but with the NFL rapidly evolving it is a risk he had to make for this franchise. We’ll have to see how this one plays out.

He has had two stints as defensive coordinator in the NFL already. His hiring was crucial for Fangio to be both the head coach and implement his brand of defense here in Denver.Defensive AssistantsBill Kollar - Defensive LineBrandon Staley - Outside LinebackersReggie Herring - Inside LinebackersRenaldo Hill - Defensive BacksNathaniel Willingham - Defensive Quality ControlChris Beake - Defensive AssistantSpecial Teams Coordinator: Tom McMahonAfter the disaster under Brock Olivo’s leadership in 2017, the Broncos were pleased with McMahon’s turnaround with that unit. The explosive plays were not there in the return game, but until that fateful 99-yard return against the Oakland Raiders the unit was strong in defending against returns. Special Teams AssistantsChris Gould - Assistant Special Teams CoordinatorStrength & Conditioning: Loren LandowI am not sure how to analyze Landow’s performance in 2018. The team suffered many devastating injuries to its most important stars and after a time I began to miss Luke Richesson as it seemed like the Broncos remained relatively free of those terrible injuries when he was here Royce Freeman Color Rush Jersey , as did the Houston Texans during their playoff run in 2018. Hopefully, Landow improves the Broncos health throughout the course of a 16-game regular season in 2019.
