Denver Broncos first half of the season problems and analysis

By the end of the first half of the season, the balance sheet is 3 wins and 4 defeats, a balance comparable to that of the previous season, where the champions have not even managed to center the playoffs goal. The problems of last season have reappeared in this and if possible even more accentuated, the first and largest of them are called quarterbacks as they all criticized Manning's physical decline in his last year, even the worst version of he was clearly better than Trevor Siemian. The quarterback at its second year is becoming completely unable to handle the ball and make the right decisions despite Paradis's offensive line and militarized with Leary coming from the Cowboys both among the most efficient in the league. Just because of the line, the racing game is the only thing that works in the Broncos attack thanks to a large group of runningbacks going from CJ Anderson to Jamal Charles through the Devontae Booker play. Problems arise when you need to make a down conversion where the coaching of the ball does not have a chance of success when the defense raises more "heavy" formations to counter the racing game by playing for example with 8 men in the box. At that time Siemian would have to ensure a decent consistency in the aerial game to make sure they did not make their attack too unobtrusive and easy, but unfortunately for the Broncos Siemian it was not at all up to the height of making serious mistakes such as intercepts (10 in season). The Broncos turnover ratio is -11 and today's NFL is a key figure as statistically the teams that arrive at the Superbowl are typically the ones with the best turnover ratio, because as far as some people say in the NFL current is far more than the past and defending against certain types of modern athletes has become very difficult to give good field positions and additional possessions to their opponent many times is deadly. Coach Vance Joseph after the embarrassing try of Siemian in the Monday night against the Chiefs has decided to promote in the Brock Osveiler chart as the starting QB, Osveiler's starting debut as a farmer will be tough as the next game Denver will play against the Eagles boast a really strong front 7, capable of putting pressure on the quarterback opponent without even having to call a blitz. Choosing to Promote Osveiler I find it somewhat controversial considering the past season with the Texans and the apparitions all but less exciting than backing this year, on the one hand I would have tried Paxton Lynch who was predestined to replace Peyton Manning but for a reason or for the other it was never played. The ratings of Siemian (76.8) and Osveiler (62.5) support the thesis of all those who would like to see Lynch have the chance to show his talent in the field as the other two quarterbacks now know where they can get and the standard required to bet the postseason is not in their reach, in the case of Siemian add for now because it is still young to improve time he has it.
