It’s the Tuesday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cecil & Mase dig into three uncomfortable truths about the Broncos after a 2–1 start. The record is strong — the problems underneath are real. Denver has work to do, and we’re asking the tough questions.

1) Can they run the ball effectively. With Jonah Coleman out for a few weeks, the pressure falls on JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey. Can they produce more on the ground. Is the blocking good enough. And what does Denver need to change schematically to get this run game moving. Dive deeper into Broncos run‑game concerns.

2) Can they stop the run. Teams are running on Denver — consistently. The numbers show it, and the tape confirms it. DJ Jones is struggling as a run defender, and the front isn’t fitting well together. How can they help each other improve. What adjustments must be made immediately. Explore Broncos run‑defense problems.

3) Bo Nix is not playing efficient football. Nix is clutch, and that’s rare — but he’s also cleaning up his own mistakes in the second half. Can Denver get more consistent, efficient play from him. What’s fixable, and what’s simply part of his development curve. Check out Bo Nix efficiency issues.

Cecil & Mase break down what’s real, what’s correctable, and what must change if Denver wants to keep stacking wins.

🔥 In this episode:

• Broncos run‑game problems and solutions

• Why the run defense keeps breaking down

• Bo Nix’s clutch play vs his early‑game struggles

• What Denver must fix heading into Week 4

Drop your thoughts — which uncomfortable truth matters most for the Broncos right now.

It’s the Monday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cecil & Mase break down the three biggest takeaways from the Broncos’ dramatic Week 3 win over the Rams on Sunday Night Football — a game that once again showcased Denver’s resilience, star power, and late‑game toughness. 1) Bo Nix is clutch. Another week, another fourth‑quarter comeback. Nix continues to show poise, command, and the ability to elevate when the moment demands it. Through three weeks, he’s proving he’s built for prime time and pressure situations. Use this to dive deeper into Bo Nix’s clutch profile. 2) Talanoa Hufanga changed the game. His pick‑six flipped the entire night, and his interception on the final play sealed the win. Hufanga’s history against Matthew Stafford mattered — he now has two career pick‑sixes, both off Stafford. His anticipation, film study, and familiarity with Stafford’s tendencies showed up in the biggest moments. Explore Hufanga’s impact vs Stafford. 3) Courtland Sutton delivers again. Sutton came through with big catches in key moments, continuing his strong start to the season. But with Jaylen Waddle also commanding heavy usage, are we headed toward a week‑to‑week back‑and‑forth in production between the two. Denver may have a dynamic 1‑2 punch that alternates depending on matchup and game flow. Check out Sutton vs Waddle usage trends. 🔥 In this episode: Bo Nix’s fourth‑quarter magic Talanoa Hufanga’s game‑changing plays Courtland Sutton’s clutch production How Denver closed out a prime‑time thriller What this win means heading into Week 4 Drop your thoughts — which takeaway matters most for the Broncos moving forward.

It’s a Friday GamePlan edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cecil & Mase lay out exactly how the Broncos can beat the Rams on Sunday Night Football in Week 3 — a matchup that demands discipline, creativity, and a smart approach on both sides of the ball. On offense, the big question is the running back rotation. JK Dobbins is working through a hamstring injury — will he be close to full strength by Sunday. If he is, how should Denver attack on the ground. And if he’s limited, how much of the load shifts to RJ Harvey, whose burst and space ability could create chunk plays against the Rams’ front. In the passing game, Jaylen Waddle dominated targets last week. Does that continue, or does Bo Nix spread the ball around more. And how does Nix’s growing chemistry with Davis Webb — especially Webb’s clarity and communication — shape the gameplan under the prime‑time spotlight. Defensively, the challenge is clear: Matthew Stafford, Terrance Ferguson, and Davante Adams form one of the most dangerous passing attacks in football. How does Denver disrupt timing, disguise coverage, and keep Stafford from getting comfortable. 🔥 In this episode: How the Broncos should attack with JK Dobbins Why RJ Harvey could be a big‑play threat vs the Rams What Jonah Coleman’s injury means for the rotation How Bo Nix distributes targets — and Waddle’s role How Denver slows Stafford, Ferguson, and Davante Adams Drop your thoughts — what’s the biggest key for Denver to beat the Rams on Sunday night.

It’s a Wednesday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Mase and Cecil continue the deep dive into Broncos vs Rams on Sunday Night Football — a matchup shaped heavily by injuries, adjustments, and what we’ve learned through two weeks of the 2026 season. The running back room is once again the headline. JK Dobbins is battling a hamstring issue — will he be close to full strength. RJ Harvey could be a sneaky difference‑maker against the Rams because of his burst and space skills. And then there’s Jonah Coleman, who left Week 2 dinged up — does he have a high‑ankle sprain, and how does that impact the rotation heading into Sunday night. On offense, the conversation shifts to Bo Nix and his growing connection with Davis Webb. Webb’s communication, clarity, and ability to translate concepts have stood out through the first two weeks. What have we learned about their working relationship, and how does that help Nix attack a Rams secondary built on disguise and post‑snap movement. 🔥 In this episode: Broncos RB injuries and what they mean for Sunday night JK Dobbins’ status and whether he can handle a full workload RJ Harvey’s role and why he could pop Jonah Coleman’s injury and how it affects the rotation Bo Nix and Davis Webb — what we’ve learned through two weeks Drop your thoughts — who should lead the Broncos backfield on Sunday night.

It’s a Wednesday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cecil Lammey is joined by NFL Insider James Palmer to preview Broncos vs Rams on Sunday Night Football — a matchup that will test Denver on both sides of the ball. The big storyline is the status of Puka Nacua. If he plays, the Rams passing game becomes even more dangerous. If he doesn’t, Matthew Stafford still has enough weapons and timing‑based concepts to stress Denver’s coverage rules. So what kind of problems does this Rams offense create, and can the Broncos generate enough pressure to rattle Stafford. On offense, Bo Nix faces a Rams secondary built from the former Chiefs defensive back room — a group that thrives on disguise, rotation, and forcing tight‑window throws. How does Nix handle that challenge, and what does Denver need to do schematically to keep him comfortable. And then there’s the backfield. Jonah Coleman stepped up in Week 2 while JK Dobbins dealt with a hamstring issue (later called cramps). Even if Dobbins suits up, are we about to see more Coleman as the Broncos search for stability and explosiveness in the run game. 🔥 In this episode: Whether Puka Nacua plays — and how it changes the matchup How Stafford challenges Denver’s defense How Bo Nix attacks the Rams secondary Why Jonah Coleman may keep expanding his role What the Broncos must fix before Sunday night Drop your thoughts in the comments — what’s the biggest key for Denver to beat the Rams on Sunday Night Football?

It’s a Monday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cec & Mase recap the Broncos’ 20–13 win over the Jaguars — a gritty, momentum‑building victory powered by breakout performances on offense. Jaylen Waddle delivered his first 100‑yard game as a Bronco, hauling in 8 catches for 138 yards and giving the offense the explosive element it desperately needed. Can Denver keep that momentum going as Waddle continues to settle into his WR1 role. With JK Dobbins injured, rookie Jonah Coleman stepped in and shined. He logged 10 carries for 39 yards and a touchdown, sealing the game late with physical, clock‑draining runs, and added 3 catches for 19 yards. With Dobbins already banged up, does Coleman take this job and run with it. Defensively, it wasn’t perfect — but it was effective. The Broncos held a high‑powered Jaguars offense to just 13 points, tightening up in key moments and making the plays needed to secure the win. Cec & Mase break down what this victory means, what’s sustainable, and what Denver must build on heading into Week 3. 🔥 In this episode: How Waddle’s breakout performance changes the offense Why Coleman’s emergence matters with Dobbins injured What the Broncos’ defense did well — and what still needs work How Denver builds momentum after a crucial week 2 win What do you think of the Broncos win? Drop a comment down below!

It’s a Tuesday edition of Orange & Blue Today, and Cec & Mase dive into the Broncos rushing attack — a position group suddenly in flux after two weeks of injuries and one week of breakout performances. JK Dobbins is already dealing with a hamstring injury, and RJ Harvey had to miss Week 2 with the same issue. That opened the door for Jonah Coleman, who stepped in and delivered a strong, physical performance against Jacksonville. Is Coleman ready to be the lead back. Should Dobbins move to a complementary role until he’s fully healthy. And what does Harvey’s usage look like if Coleman continues to earn more work. The conversation also turns to Tyler Badie, who flashed in camp and preseason. How does he work his way into the rotation, and what kind of role can he carve out as the Broncos try to stabilize their backfield heading into Week 3. Cec & Mase break down what the Broncos’ run game looks like now, what’s sustainable, and how Denver can build on the momentum from Sunday’s win. 🔥 In this episode: How Jonah Coleman fits into the Broncos’ long‑term RB plan Why Dobbins’ injury complicates the rotation What RJ Harvey’s role becomes when he returns How Tyler Badie can earn meaningful snaps What Denver must do to keep the run game rolling Should Coleman be the starter, or is Dobbins locked into that role? What about Harvey upon his return? Drop your take below!

It’s the Friday Gameplan Edition of Orange & Blue Today, and as Sean Payton always says, the NFL is either a crisis or a carnival — and last week was definitely the crisis. After a rough 31–10 loss to the Chiefs, the Broncos return home to Empower Field at Mile High needing to reset fast before the Jacksonville Jaguars come to town. So how do the Broncos attack the Jaguars defense. Will they feature JK Dobbins more after he and RJ Harvey looked good on limited touches. Can Davis Webb get the run game going early, or does Sean Payton need to step in and steady the offense. On defense, tackling must improve immediately. The Broncos couldn’t slow down Kansas City’s rushing attack, and now they face a high‑powered Jaguars offense with multiple ways to stress a defense. How does Denver clean things up, and what’s their plan for stopping Trevor Lawrence — a quarterback who thrives in tight‑window throws — and a passing game featuring Parker Washington. The Broncos cannot afford to fall to 0–2, and this episode breaks down exactly what Denver must do to get back on the right track. 🔥 In this episode: How Denver flushes last week’s loss and resets for Week 2 What the Broncos’ offensive gameplan looks like vs Jacksonville Whether Dobbins and Harvey get more early involvement How Denver improves tackling and run defense How to defend Trevor Lawrence’s tight‑window passing attack Drop your take — what’s the biggest adjustment Denver must make to beat the Jaguars.

Cec and Mase break down how the Broncos flush last week after a rough 31–10 season‑opening loss to the Chiefs — a big slice of humble pie for a team with Super Bowl expectations. With the Jaguars coming to town, Denver has to get back on track fast. The Broncos couldn’t slow down Kenneth Walker in Week 1, so how big of a concern is the run defense moving forward, especially against teams with quality running backs. On offense, Denver failed to run the ball consistently, even though JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey looked good on limited touches. Can Davis Webb get them involved earlier, or does Sean Payton need to step in and help stabilize the gameplan. And then there’s Bo Nix, who struggled under pressure — something he’s historically dealt with early in seasons. How can Denver better protect him, and what adjustments must be made before Sunday. The Broncos cannot afford to fall to 0–2, and this episode digs into exactly what they need to do to get this win. 🔥 In this episode: How Denver flushes the Chiefs loss and resets for Week 2 Why the Jaguars matchup is a major early‑season test How Dobbins and Harvey fit into the corrected gameplan Whether Sean Payton steps in on play‑calling How the Broncos protect Bo Nix and avoid an 0–2 start Drop your take — what’s the biggest adjustment Denver must make to beat Jacksonville.

Amazon Prime NFL Insider James Palmer joins Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey on Orange & Blue Today to break down the Broncos’ Week 2 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars — and how Denver responds after a wake‑up call against the Chiefs. The Broncos couldn’t slow down Kenneth Walker in Week 1, and now they face another high‑powered offense with multiple ways to stress a defense. How big of a concern is Denver’s run defense moving forward, and what has to change immediately to avoid a repeat performance. On offense, the Broncos need to find rhythm after struggling to run the ball consistently. JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey looked good on limited touches — so can Davis Webb get them involved earlier, or does Sean Payton need to step in and help stabilize the play‑calling. And then there’s Trevor Lawrence, who can test tight windows and challenge Denver’s coverage rules. Palmer breaks down how Jacksonville will attack, what matchups matter most, and how the Broncos can keep this game from tilting early. 🔥 In this episode: How Denver responds after the Chiefs wake‑up call Why the Jaguars’ offense is a major test for the Broncos How Dobbins and Harvey fit into the Week 2 gameplan Whether Sean Payton steps in on play‑calling How Trevor Lawrence stresses Denver’s coverage Drop your Week 2 take — what’s the biggest adjustment Denver must make before Sunday.

Cec and Mase break down everything that went wrong for the Broncos in their 31–10 loss to the Chiefs on Monday Night Football — and what it means moving forward. Denver couldn’t slow down Kenneth Walker, who ripped through the defense all night. Missed tackles, poor fits, and bad angles made it easy for Kansas City to control the game. So how big of a concern is this going forward, especially with more quality running backs on the schedule. On offense, the Broncos failed to run the ball consistently, even though JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey looked good on limited touches. Can Davis Webb get them involved earlier, or will Sean Payton have to step in and help with play‑calling. And then there’s Bo Nix, who struggled under constant pressure. Cec and Mase dig into how Denver can better protect him, what adjustments are realistic, and how the offense can stabilize before Week 2. 🔥 In this episode: How Denver’s run defense became a major concern Why Dobbins and Harvey need more early involvement Whether Sean Payton steps in on play‑calling How the Broncos can better protect Bo Nix What Monday night revealed about Denver’s identity Drop your take — what’s the biggest fix Denver needs before Week 2.

JK Dobbins says he’s ready for a large workload, and he’s doubling down with a pinky promise that he’ll stay healthy all season. It’s vintage Dobbins — confident, fiery, and absolutely convinced he’s still a top‑5 running back when he’s right. The problem: he’s missed more games than he’s played in his NFL career. So what does that mean for Denver. If Dobbins does stay healthy for 17 games, Sean Payton finally gets the explosive, decisive, downhill runner his offense has been missing. The Broncos’ ground game becomes a legitimate engine — one that forces defenses to respect the run and opens up the Bo Nix–Jaylen Waddle connection. But if Dobbins misses time again, Denver has to be ready. That means more RJ Harvey as a space‑creator and mismatch weapon, and more Jonah Coleman as the physical, tone‑setting rookie who can keep the run game afloat. The Broncos have built depth for this exact scenario — but the ceiling is undeniably higher with Dobbins available every week. This episode breaks down both realities: the dream scenario where Dobbins finally delivers a full season, and the contingency plan if history repeats itself. 🔥 In this episode: What JK Dobbins’ workload could look like in Week 1 How Denver’s offense changes if he stays healthy all year What the Broncos’ backup plan is if Dobbins misses time How RJ Harvey and Jonah Coleman fit into the rotation Why Dobbins’ health is one of the biggest storylines of 2026 Drop your Broncos take — what does the run game look like if Dobbins finally plays all 17.

• Is Denver’s ground game ready for a hot Week 1 start
• What JK Dobbins must show early in the season
• How RJ Harvey can improve as a runner
• Why Jonah Coleman may be more than just a backup
• How the toughest six‑game stretch shapes the backfield

Monday Night Football. Chiefs. Broncos. Bo Nix. Jaylen Waddle. It’s one of the biggest Week 1 stages in the league — and Denver’s newest weapon is about to step into the spotlight. So what should fans expect from Waddle in week 1. Sean Payton has spent the entire offseason building timing, spacing, and rhythm between Nix and Waddle, and the Chiefs know it. With a young secondary, Kansas City will have to decide whether to bracket Waddle, play more zone than usual, or try to disrupt Nix early to prevent those timing‑based throws. But here’s the truth: Waddle’s speed, leverage, and YAC ability travel. Even in a divisional game with a fired‑up crowd, he’s built for prime time. A huge debut is absolutely on the table — especially if Denver leans into motion, stacks, and quick hitters to get him rolling. This is the first real look at the Nix‑to‑Waddle connection, and it could define the tone of Denver’s season. 🔥 In this episode: What Jaylen Waddle’s role should look like in week 1 How the Chiefs’ young secondary can try to slow him down Why the Nix‑Waddle chemistry could pop immediately What fans should realistically expect on Monday night Drop your Broncos take — how big will Waddle’s debut be, and how much will the Nix connection matter against Kansas City.

🔥 Description

Thursday’s Orange & Blue Today digs into one of the biggest lingering questions on offense: is the Broncos tight end room actually good enough.

At the top, Evan Engram is the primary pass‑catching threat — but last year showed he may simply be who he is at this stage of his career. Can he be better in 2026. Can he ever become Sean Payton’s true “joker” weapon, or is that role still missing from the roster.

Behind him, Adam Trautman remains the trusted veteran blocker who keeps the offense on schedule. The Broncos also kept rookie Dallen Bentley, a seventh‑round pick who projects as a future Trautman‑type player — maybe with more upside than originally expected. Nate Adkins provides versatility and reliability in multiple roles.

And then there’s Caleb Lohner — the 2025 seventh‑rounder who made the team but starts the season on IR‑designated to return. He’s a massive project with real athletic upside, but he’s done little so far due to injuries. Is he the key to this group being better than expected. If so, when could he realistically be out there helping the Broncos.

This TE room has stability, youth, and potential — but does it have enough juice.

🔥 In this episode:

• Is the Broncos TE room good enough for a playoff run

• Can Evan Engram be better than last year

• Why Dallen Bentley may have more upside than expected

• How Nate Adkins fits into the rotation

• Whether Caleb Lohner can change the ceiling — and when he might return

Drop your Broncos take — which tight end needs to step up most, and who has the best chance to surprise in 2026.

ESPN left Bo Nix out of their Top 100, and Broncos Country is rightfully fired up. The national analysts have never understood Nix — not his command, not his toughness, not the way he elevates the offense. But inside the building, his teammates keep saying the same thing: Bo is different, Bo is steady, and Bo is ready. Is he about to make a year‑three leap like Josh Allen once did. The signs are there — growth in processing, confidence in structure, and a locker room that believes he’s the guy to take them deep into January. So why are the national voices still so wrong. We dig into the biases, the blind spots, and the outdated narratives that keep analysts from seeing what Denver sees every day. 🔥 In this episode: Why ESPN left Bo Nix out of the Top 100 What Nix’s teammates say that analysts ignore Whether a year‑three leap is coming Why national evaluators keep missing on Denver’s QB Drop your Broncos take — is Bo Nix about to shock the national media again, and how high can he climb in 2026.

The Broncos’ practice squad is set, and there’s already plenty to unpack. Rookie ILB Red Murdock made the squad — a win for a developmental player whose instincts, urgency, and tackling ability give Denver a real long‑term project at the position. His growth now becomes a season‑long storyline. But the surprise came at tight end: rookie Justin Joly chose to sign with the Miami Dolphins instead of staying in Denver. So did the Broncos make a mistake not pushing harder to keep both Joly and fellow rookie Dallen Bentley. Bentley’s size, blocking ability, and red‑zone potential may offer more upside than originally thought — and Denver’s confidence in him clearly shaped how the TE room was built. Now the question becomes whether the Broncos truly assembled the best 53‑man roster and practice squad for a team with playoff — and Super Bowl — expectations. The mix of veterans, rookies, and developmental pieces suggests a long‑view approach, but the margins matter. 🔥 In this episode: Red Murdock’s developmental path on the practice squad Why Justin Joly chose Miami — and what it means for Denver Dallen Bentley’s rising upside in the TE room Did the Broncos nail their 53‑man roster and PS decisions How these moves shape the team heading into Week 1 Drop your Broncos take — did Denver keep the right guys, and which practice‑squad player has the best chance to make an impact this season.

The Broncos must trim the roster to 53 players this weekend, and with one preseason game left — Friday night against the Vikings — it’s officially bubble‑watch season in Denver. This is the week where fringe players have to play their way onto the roster, and several names stand out. Depth receivers, rotational defenders, and young specialists all have one last shot to prove they belong. And then there’s the trade angle: would Denver showcase Jaleel McLaughlin or Sam Ehlinger to spark interest around the league. It’s absolutely in play. Sean Payton and George Paton will be watching every snap — effort, consistency, and assignment‑sound football matter more than ever in the preseason finale. 🔥 In this episode: Which bubble players must shine vs. the Vikings Who’s fighting for the final roster spots Could Jaleel McLaughlin or Sam Ehlinger be showcased for a trade How the Broncos approach cut‑down weekend Why Friday is make‑or‑break for multiple depth pieces Drop your Broncos take — which bubble player do YOU think earns a roster spot, and who’s most likely to be moved before cut‑downs.
