Strange to watch this Broncos team. Running hasn't been a problem this season (2nd in the league in YPC), but they can't get anything going against the Texans. Travis Henry is in slow motion, and Selvin Young is trying to make a big play on every snap.

More surprising are the lack of options Jay Cutler has in the passing game. The Texans are playing eight in the box all game and making the Broncos win one-on-one matchups. Brandon Marshall is a robo monster, but he's all Cutler has at wideout. Glenn Martinez is a zero, and this post knee injury incarnation of Javon Walker is a negative. And as I write this, Tony Scheffler makes a few plays and a ridiculous jump for a touchdown. He's Cutler's second receiver.

In the end, it's the defense that has let this Broncos team down. 29th in rushing YPC allowed is surprising. 25th in YPA allowed on pass defense is a total system failure. The Broncos will spend another offseason making a ton of personnel changes. Just like they always do.
