The Denver Broncos run game is driving me insane. More specifically, the playcalling from Sean Payton in situations is driving me insane. He is far too quick to throw away drives with a pass-happy call sheet. It must be something his own staff has noticed and he himself wrote “Run it!” on his own playsheet.
For a while, he kept that note in the forefront. Then at halftime he ditched it. We all know what happened from there.
Part of it may have been his all-in commitment to Javonte Williams. I’ve always like Javonte and am not here to disparage him, but with the team fighting for a playoff berth it is time to go with the hot hand.
