ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Maybe it's the five seasons he has been in the NFL. Maybe it's the grind back from injuries or the growing list of "tough love" coaches he has had -- a list that now includes Sean Payton. But J.K. Dobbins certainly wants to be the Denver Broncos' lead back this season, and he believes he's qualified for that job.
He thinks his experience -- and more than a few salty critiques -- have helped him crack the code for how to succeed as an RB1.
"I mean, a lot of people think running back is you get the ball, run left, run right or run through the middle," Dobbins said.
