In context
GilMaybe you steal the division mode, but their schedule this year was really tough.
PelisseroIt is when you look at the stats and just how low they rank on both sides of the football, it's alarming. You know, to look at the, on defense, you know, there's no Jonathan Cooper right now. That does make a factor. He's still on the commissioner's exemplus.
PelisseroYou know, now Pat Sertan's beat up. It sounds like, I want to say week to week, because I think he probably misses a couple weeks, but it sounds like he might be able to even avoid injured reserve, which you would not have thought based on how he went down in that game. They're beat up at those spots.
PelisseroI have seen them before figure this out on defense. So I would think that they figure it out.
PelisseroOffensively, my takeaway just watching the Broncos right now is, When you have like a gotta have it moment, when you, it's just like, all right, our best player, our best player. I don't know who that is.
PelisseroJalen Waddell has had, I don't know what his official or unofficial drop total is, but I've seen him drop a bunch of passes. It just feels like he's not comfortable. Maybe he's pressing a little bit too hard right now. Like where is Cortland Sutton in the offense?
PelisseroYou know, the running backs have been, it's kind of a different combination every week. They just, they seem like they're kind of grasping, okay, what exactly are we? But Bo Nix hasn't played bad. I don't think by any stretch. It just seems like in terms of what's happening around him, where the football needs to go, there's just a little bit of a feeling out process that's continuing to take place.
