Not sure what the 3rd down call was
The 4th down call was open for a short pass first down...my guess is Driskell saw the guy coming free who was about to hammer him and was just a deer in the headlights at that pointTime to build on the win and grow the team from some solid play higher level of play

If Edmunds doesn’t blitz that’s likely a TD or close to it. If Gordon free lances out of the play a bit and picks up the blitz maybe Driskell goes to Patrick or if Gordon stops the route he catches it for a first. It was a great play call though, just need a more experienced QB to read that blitz quicker.

Tim Patrick was running a drag (was wide open for a 1st) to bait any defenders in the middle to clear up space for Gordon on the arrow route. Driskell was waiting for Gordon to cut back to throw but it took too long.

Good qbs make that throw. If the QB can not make the throw find another QBTime to build on the win and grow the team from some solid play higher level of play

You have to run the ball there. You can't give Gordon that much money and then not use him in the situations you need him for. Shurmur has tried to get way too cute on short yardage situations so far this year. Really disappointing playcalling.
Could easily be 2-0 if we had a better play caller.Last edited by Megalodon30; 09-20-2020, 03:58 PM.Eternal Broncos Optimist

3rd and 2 so you have 2 plays and plenty of time left. Gordon has been good enough that I'm way more confident with him running the ball to get 2 yards. I guess I could argue in this situation it's also less risky. To me it's a head scratcher of play calling.

Run the ball. Simple as that.
And on 4th they can’t send everyone. Either TE or RB has to have protection against the same play they sacked him twice already.
Broncos are finding new and frustrating ways to lose. Just what bad teams find a way to do. When will it change?
