Broncos top priority against Panthers isn't what you think

[d-dave]

I just hope we pound them.  I don't care of Cam only throws 5 passes, but I feel like we should just pound the rock all day and wear them down with Stewart and Tolbert.  By the 4th, they will be completely gassed.

Brings the ole "Keep Pounding" motto a newer meaning.

Some thoughts on the matchup

I have said that about every game, and also why its a huge deal to extend both of our  OG's.

Trai & Norwell > any DT.

Are we back to hating the guy who ran the number 1 offence in the league? Gosh yall are fickle.

I'm rooting for him. I just have no faith in his ability to go off script.

So basically they need to contain Cam and double Olsen?

[Chief Keek]

If they're going to focus on stopping the run then they are playing right into the Panthers hands. They're missing two vital pieces; Danny Trevathan and Malik Jackson. Those two played a major role in that Defense and the Broncos are going to miss their presence.

50% of his highlight plays are off script

I guess I should elaborate by saying I don't trust Shula to adjust his game plan when the Broncos sell out against the run. 

I hope he proves me wrong. I love crow.

I totally agree. Everybody was talking about Von Miller and I really felt we loss control of the game in February when Stewart limped off the field. Our run game is the true catalyst to making everything else click and Stewart is a key component of that. I'm as excited as anybody about a healthy KB. A healthy Stewart might be even better.

Well Denver wasn't the first team to try that....so I think it unfair to claims he didn't adjust last season to it successfully.

end of the day we faced a historically great defense....with below average OTs, below average WRs, and a hurt lead RB.  

And in fairness, Belichick and Brady failed to adjust just prior when facing Denver and they are GOATs paired together

If we can run on them...standard Stewart bruising type running (4 yards a pop).  It's over. 

That is all it takes for our O 

If Stewart were 100% and Norwell didn't get hurt early in the game we would've won.

The lack of respect for the OC that engineered the highest scoring offense last year from a roster with Ginn as the #1 WR option is still dumb

Yes, run behind this man.

But...that's actually exactly what I thought.
