   What’s Wrong With the Broncos Offense? Bo Nix, Play Calling or Both?

   The Denver Broncos offense is once again under the microscope.After another frustrating performance, Andy Lindahl and Scott Hastings break down what’s going wrong — and whether the blame belongs with Bo Nix, Davis Webb, Sean Payton, or all of the above. The Broncos defense continues to keep Denver in games, but the offense has struggled to score early, sustain drives and consistently attack downfield. Andy and Scotty dig into Bo Nix’s decision-making, why he may be moving off his first read too quickly, and the film breakdowns showing opportunities that were there but never taken. They also debate whether Davis Webb deserves the criticism he’s getting as the new play caller, why the Broncos continue to abandon the running game, and whether Sean Payton’s scheme and personnel groupings need to change.Plus: Why Denver’s first-half scoring problem is becoming a major concern Whether Bo Nix’s ankle could still be affecting his mobility What Dan Orlovsky saw when breaking down Nix’s missed opportunities Why Davis Webb may not be the biggest issue with the offense The case for using more under-center, pistol and heavier personnel Why the upcoming Chargers game could be a dangerous matchup The Avalanche’s hot start The state of Colorado football and the growing money gap in college sports And, somehow, closet hangers, boats and what $5 million could buy Andy and Scotty Who deserves the most blame for Denver’s offensive struggles right now?Bo Nix? The play calling? Sean Payton? Or is this a much bigger problem? Subscribe to Hot Mic with Hastings & Lindahl for more unfiltered Denver sports conversation.

   The Broncos Keep Winning… But What Do We Make of Bo Nix?

   The Broncos found another way to win, but Andy Lindahl and Scott Hastings still have plenty of questions about what they’re seeing from Bo Nix and the Denver offense. In this episode, Andy and Scott react to Denver’s comeback win and the strange formula that keeps working: slow starts, an offense that struggles to find its rhythm, a defense that keeps the game within reach, and then just enough big plays to pull it out. They dig into Bo Nix’s inconsistent performance, including whether he’s locking onto receivers, giving up on reads too quickly, and missing open options before suddenly flipping the switch and making some of the biggest throws of the game. Is this simply who the Broncos are now — or is the offense eventually going to have to become more consistent? They also get into the atmosphere at Mile High, Sean Payton and the play-calling, Denver’s defense, instant replay and NFL officiating, the impact of sports betting on how closely calls are scrutinized, and whether today’s young quarterbacks are being developed differently than previous generations. And because this is Andy and Scott, the conversation eventually goes completely off the rails with Case Keenum, haunted houses, HGTV, chimpanzees, late-night bathroom strategy and plenty more. In this episode: Why the Broncos keep surviving slow starts Bo Nix’s reads, decision-making and inconsistency Is Denver’s defense carrying the offense? The return of a true home-field advantage at Mile High Sean Payton, play-calling and Denver’s offensive identity Why instant replay may have gone too far Are young quarterbacks being taught how to read defenses? Case Keenum turning back the clock And a Broncos Monday conversation that takes several unexpected turns Subscribe for more Broncos, NFL, Nuggets, Avalanche and Colorado sports talk with Andy Lindahl and Scott Hastings.
