The Denver Broncos’ loss to the Cleveland Browns could have been avoided if the team had just been able to score 18 points. Unfortunately for this team, that’s asking a lot.
Though the Broncos’ offense has been putrid this year, they have been really strong running the football and have their share of big passing plays. They are missing their top target at receiver in Emmanuel Sanders, which was perhaps a major reason for Vance Joseph’s willingness (or lack thereof) to take a risk late in the game against the Browns.
The Broncos had a good drive going all the way down to the Browns’ six-yard line.
