The Denver Broncos have transformed into a young team during their rebuild.
There have been some ups and downs since their Super Bowl 50 victory over the Carolina Panthers, and they finally seem to be on their way to some future success.
That is not without the help of some continuity. ESPN has ranked the Broncos at 13th overall in terms of continuity. Their explanation is as follows:
13. Denver Broncos: 75.7% snaps returning
Offensive snaps returning: 73.2% (23rd)
Defensive snaps returning: 78.1% (8th)
Starters returning: 18 (8 offense, 9 defense, 1 special teams)Non-coordinator assistants returning: 13 of 16
Coordinators returning: 2 of 3 (Ed Donatell, DC; Tom McMahon, ST)
Starting QB: Drew Lock, 2nd year
Head coach: Vic Fangio, 2nd year (7-9)What it means: Offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello was fired a week after the season.
