Throughout this season, I have continued to be amazed by the Broncos’ near-ineptitude in the red zone. I even sent out a tweet saying it is like they just forget how to football when they get down there.
And it still held true against the Eagles.
The Broncos now rank 21st in Red Zone DVOA, but are 31st in Goal to Go DVOA. They are 16th in Red Zone DVOA when Passing, but 26th in Red Zone DVOA when Rushing. These issues crept up against Philly, where the Broncos went 1-5 in the Red Zone due to a number of puzzling decisions.
