The last time Denver had a break in its schedule, head coach Nathaniel Hackett said his aim was to “focus” the playbook and the Broncos’ offensive plan.
After an 11-day mini-bye, his team put forward one of its worst offensive showings of a bad offensive half-season, mustering a season-low 258 yards and 13 first downs in a 19-16 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Now, with two weeks between a win in London and a road trip to Tennessee, Hackett and the Broncos must make better use of its off week. For all of the talk about the trade deadline and moving Bradley Chubb, Denver’s best chance at rallying toward contention from 3-5 is to get much more from its offense in the final nine games than it did in the first eight.“I get to know him more every single day,” Hackett said. “You always grow as a coach and you grow as a player.
Some other metrics look slightly better, but nearly across the board, if there’s an offensive stat, Denver is in the bottom third of the league. It is not realistic to expect that the Broncos turn around all of those areas on a dime — they showed signs of life by mounting three long touchdown drives against Jacksonville in London — but the slow start has eliminated the margin for error going forward into the second half.
