We all knew it, deep down inside. The Denver Broncos had a complete lack of focus in the 2014 playoffs against the Indianapolis Colts and Andrew Luck. We saw how badly the Colts were drubbed by the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game, proving their weaknesses that were even further amplified in 2015 when the loss of Andrew Luck proved too detrimental for them to even make the playoffs.
The Colts came into Denver in the Divisional round last year, beat the Broncos, and sent everyone home in disgust. What in the world happened?
Players and coaches alike were too focused on their next job, their next contract, or even the next game against the New England Patriots, and not enough on the task at hand.
