We refuse to throw deep down field

[BourbonBalz]

Not every team has a Defensive Secondary as talented has Denver's...They can try an load the box, but I'll guarantee most will pay dearly!l

No, they don't. My point is that we have to make teams pay for playing us that way.

What articles? From BB?

Strum, who is better analyst then BB, refuted the Dak doesn't go deep nonsense.

Dak went deep at least 3 times vs the Giants

If I said more than Broaddus said it why would that be the only article? Go google Dak lack of downfield passes and you'll find them. Also its just as many articles saying he doesn't go downfield so don't just use one that agrees with you as the end all be all. Dude had a bad game y'all gotta stop acting like dude above critique like he y'all's football God or something.

The passing game last year was built heavily off play-action. I didn't see this whole game, but from what I read, besides abandoning the run, they went a lot of five receiver and spread sets. This passing game is not going to be successful if they aren't feeding Zeke the ball.

Who is to blame for that? Is that on Dak? Or is that on Linehan? Butler has the speed to make separation on db's. I don't care if Butler drops it, we still need throw deep a couple times in the first quarter, It would take pressure off our run game and short passing game.

It on the HC, OC and Dak. They all 3 need to grow some balls.

In a word: opponent

Our first two games this year were against the #1 and #2 pass defenses from a year ago. Their secondaries include 4 All-Pro's and 6 Pro Bowlers.

Last year, the Broncos' defense allowed a 51.3 passer rating to opposing QB on throws of 15+ yards. Our week 1 opponent, the Giants, allowed a 53.5 rating on these throws.
