To me it doesn’t matter what happen back in 83″ or 84″ thats all history. All I hope is they have the Broncos ready to play tomorrow. When I say they I mean the coaches Fox, McCoy, Allen & the ST’s coach (can’t remember who he is).

When I indulge in predictions, I assume an opponent will play to their potential. The way this season has gone, generally speaking, for all of the NFL, I would ban all short sideline passes — defensive backs seem to have become very savvy in anticipating them, and many of these passes are intercepted and taken back for a score. One of the things that impressed me about watching Rivers against the Chiefs, was, that, to me, he seemed to respect the Chief’s deep secondary — he didn’t go there, unless he absolutely had to. Even so, playing a game like this is an invaluable experience, and if it is decided to go deep, against coverage, and it does get intercepted, I am willing to take that in stride, even if it should happen several times. Let’s say an opening offensive series by the Broncos goes — run middle, 0 yards; run left tackle, -1 yard; run wide right, 0 yards, punt. I would say things are not looking up for the Broncos, since we are going to have to be forced to put the ball in the air. But even so, we still are going to need to call ground plays, because, even if it is asking our back to run into a wall, we need the defense to know that we are still going to attack on the ground. If the Broncos are forced to attack with a short passing game, running backs need to remember protecting the ball after a catch is a bit trickier than protecting the ball after a hand-off, since they cannot predict where exactly they will be receiving the ball — shoulder height, behind them, in their chest, and so on. Medium pass routes are still susceptible to being intercepted — but success with them would help open the game, including the run, and the ability to pass deeper. If the Broncos are caught in the mode of determining what works offensively, then good play by the punting unit becomes important. Defensively, I don’t expect the Broncos to come up blitz heavy against the Chiefs, unless they have reason to believe that the Chiefs are tiring. Most offensive units will predominantly utilize a ground attack, until reaching mid-field, (or, say, their own forty-yard line), before “switching” to an air assault. If Broncos are going to blitz early in a series, I would make them run-support type blitzes, (such as strong safety blitzes). Generally, most offenses with a lead, even with a modest lead, will predominantly use a ground game. But the Bronco defense cannot allow their own defensive call schemes to become too complacent, or predictable. If the Chiefs employ a punishing rushing attack, Defensive lineman will need to be judicious when to make an effort to penetrate and go after the quarterback, to help protect against unexpected pass calls. I would employ Mike Blitz packages to help pressure the quarterback in quick, short-step routes.

Checked the ’83 handbook twice to make sure I was correct in stating that.
I apologize if I misunderstood your posts but it seemed to me that you were giving Elway the credit for us getting to the playoffs in ’83.

Hey Bay,
Are you referring to ’83 or ’84 as Elways first year?If ’83 you might want to go research a little more.According to ’83 manuel a majority of the games won and points put on the board were by DeBurg.1 W in ’83 can be credited to Kubiac and 2 W’s to Elway.Though we did go to the playoffs DeBurg gets the credit for gettin’ us there.

No Young didn’t run the option. That wasn’t my point. I’m just saying that young QBs like Young, Vick, and Tebow rely on their legs early in their careers to win games. The option offense is facilitating that but is not a long term solution that Denver is going to stick with. It is just our best option to win now

Great piece Mr. Rice!

If this ‘offensive scheme’ allows us to gain 299 on the ground, I say go with it until someone stops us.

GO BRONCOS!!!
