The Denver Broncos offense needed its best performance of the season to help keep the team's playoff hopes alive. Unfortunately, the Broncos' offensive line was a key factor in the team's lack of success, struggling in setting up the run and also in pass protection. The Broncos dynamic duo of Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams was limited to 14 combined carries and 8 total yards vs the Las Vegas Raiders' 26th ranked rushing defense. Despite the Broncos' defense forcing three turnovers, the offense was unable to capitalize. Drew Lock had a solid day from the pocket as a quarterback, but the entirety of the offense couldn't overcome the lack of a run game and unproductive playcalling from Pat Shurmur. What's wrong with the Broncos rush defense? Denver allowed over 160 yards on the ground in a disappointing second-half burst to Josh Jacobs. With two games remaining and Vic Fangio's tenure as head coach likely nearing its end, how has his mantra of avoiding death by inches impacted the team in his three seasons as head coach?Denver Broncos Las Vegas Raiders Week 16 SUBSCRIBE NOW: https://www.youtube.com/c/LockedOnBroncosWANT MORE DAILY DENVER BRONCOS CONTENT?Follow & Subscribe to the Podcast on these platforms…?
