The full read on the Broncos
Written Sun Nov 1, before the Chiefs game.
Season so far
Denver is 5-2, with a 3-0 home record and a 2-2 road record. The Broncos have won three straight, including a 30-16 win at Arizona, and have scored 30 points in wins over Arizona and the Rams. Their season includes a 17-14 overtime win over Seattle and a 10-31 loss at Kansas City.
The read
Denver is 5-2, with a 3-0 home record and a 2-2 road record. The 30-16 win at Arizona followed victories against Seattle and the Chargers. Sean Payton’s team now hosts Kansas City after a 10-31 defeat in the season opener.
Bo Nix is still working back from a broken right ankle suffered during the playoffs. His season completion rate is 59.2%. At Arizona, he added a 62-yard touchdown run and finished with 222 passing yards and 73 rushing yards. Vance Joseph’s defense contributed 12 quarterback hits and 3 sacks.
The backfield has changed again. RJ Harvey is on injured reserve because of a knee injury and could return as early as Week 13. Jonah Coleman played 30 snaps at Arizona, compared with 14 for J.K. Dobbins. Payton has called for more touches for Coleman. Denver elevated Cody Schrader to add depth alongside that pair.
Pat Surtain II is cleared to return, but Talanoa Hufanga remains out. Denver promoted Taylor Rapp to the active roster after using him at safety in recent games. Brandon Jones, Zach Allen, Garett Bolles and Jaylen Waddle remain questionable. Those unresolved statuses leave potential changes at safety, on the defensive line, at left tackle and at receiver; the projected starters are not a confirmed game-day lineup.
