Default Who's an ESPN Insider???

Just wondering who is an insider and has the time to go look at the article on the NFL home page on ESPN. They have some blurb on the Broncos and was hoping someone could give me the jist of it.

It talks about Denver's tendancy to go to a lower percentage offense when they are behind, even by only a few points. He talked about how they start to throw the long ball whenever they are behind and focus less on their bread and butter of the power running game. Although our deep passes percentage is almost as good in losses as in wins, he points out that it isn't good enough to sustain drives. His whole point is that Shanny needs to stick to his gameplan. if Denver has the lead, they stick to their game and are tough to beat. When they fall behind, even by a little, they lose their focus on the run and go into a lower percentage offense.

Nothing that most of us haven't been saying for quite some time.

Pretty accurate IMO.

It's one reason I have been calling for Kubiak's head for three years...so far, we haven't been behind much, and haven't seen the nintendo offense much....it's reared it's ugly head at times tho.
