Broncos’ midseason evaluation: Analyzing what they’ve done and still have to do

Breaking down the Broncos at the midway point of the season.

Offense

The Broncos have experienced a little deja vu with their performance on offense looking eerily similar to last season.

Denver’s offense has produced less rushing and passing yards per game through eight games this season than it did a season ago. The Broncos do have a slightly higher scoring average (24.3 points per game) than they did last season (22.2), but both numbers are skewed a bit because of the Broncos’ high numbers of defensive touchdowns.

First-year starting quarterback Trevor Siemian fits in well in coach Gary Kubiak’s scheme where he profiles better as a game manager rather than the gunslinger he’s forced to be when the Broncos fall behind.
