Broncos Journal: Expect teams to blitz until pass protection improves

0

Thirteen things about the Broncos (one for each sack allowed this year) heading into Thursday’s game at the New York Jets:

1. The Broncos didn’t allow a sack against Tennessee, but looking back, some of the ensuing problems make sense. Even with the mobile Drew Lock at quarterback, he was still knocked down five times and pressured four times by the Titans (nine total disruptions). In the last two games, the Broncos have allowed 37 disruptions (13 sacks/17 knockdowns/seven pressures). The 13 total sacks are tied for second-most in the NFL with Houston and behind only Cincinnati (14).
