Denver's Run Game

[xtheronx]

I haven't noticed any other threads specifically discussing this topic but in my opinion it will be the key to our victory.

 

Anyone else concerned with Denver's run game?  I'm more concerned with Hillman/Anderson than Manning (esp. with Davis being injured).

 

If this game is close - it will be due to Hillman/Anderson - not Manning.

 

Thoughts?

It is the key but they don't run particularly well.

Carolina's run game is way more important.

Yeah, but they're MUCH better with Manning under center.

 

we've let other teams get back into games in which their run game stepped up

 

I think they're better than most people give them credit for

My main concern is the Broncos staying with the run, regardless of production. Basically, lengthen TOP and slow down the game to limit our offensive opportunities. 

Offense needs to do their job and score early or at least grind out a long drive.

Star and Short are going to have a field day

Good thing we have a D-line and linebackers

i don't seem them extending the time of possession when they run for negative yards or back to the line of scrimmage.

Run game?  Stopping the run is our bread and butter.

TD is fine. He basically has a cast inside his arm. Not only that, but Shaq is virtually the same player. Where I would worry is if Klein had to see increased snaps.

Im worried about Peyton putting Denver in good situations to run the balll....his arm may not be what it use to be but his mind is still amazing
