#Broncos offensive players and their PFF positional rankings:
• QB Bo Nix (32nd)
• RB Javonte Williams (41st)
• RB Jaleel McLaughlin (43rd)
• WR Courtland Sutton (76th)
• WR Josh Reynolds (19th)
• WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey (72nd)
• TE Greg Dulcich (63rd)
• TE Adam Trautman (52nd)
• LT Garett Bolles (63rd)
• LG Ben Powers (66th)
• C Luke Wattenberg (33rd)
• RG Quinn Meinerz (63rd)
• RT Mike McGlinchey (35th)
There has been nothing good on offense. Bo Nix has been your leading rusher in each of the first two games. Courtland Sutton has five completely meaningless receptions. Greg Dulcich dropped a couple passes Sunday at completely inopportune times - his hands appeared to get in the way. Marvin Mims has been persona non grata - has played something like 20 snaps in the two games combined. The RBs have done nothing - almost literally. Except that Tyler Badie gets in for one play in the 2nd quarter against the Steelers, has the best run that the team has had in two games (16 yards, and looked like he actually wanted to be there), and then doesn't get another snap.
You can obviously argue that they're not a good team. But they're not as bad as they've looked through the first two weeks. Four months from now, they're not going to have averaged 265 total yards a game on offense. Their best RB is not going to finish the season with 300 yards rushing (the current pace). Whether he's a starting-caliber NFL QB or not, Bo Nix isn't going to finish the season with 3000 yards, 0 TDs, and 34 INTs (his current pace).
It's hard, at this point, to even know what to be angry about - other than "all of it." (Actually, the special teams has looked great - so there's that.) And I'd still rather watch this - whatever this is - than Russell Wilson incapable of throwing anything between the hashmarks, and bailing on every pocket that isn't perfectly formed. But it's not good. [Reply]
