The Drive | Hour 1 | 09.16.26

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross-talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys break down the Broncos' offensive struggles with Davis Webb calling plays for the first time in his career. Is the Webb hype over after falling on his face on Monday? How involved was Sean Payton with play calling? Zach and Phil debate if the Broncos' struggles stopping the run in Week 1 is a trend and not a one-off. We look back to the Broncos' three most recent games in which they allowed 220, 141, and 183 yards on the ground. Who is to blame for the Broncos' shortcomings on defense? We react to the latest analytics, which projects the Broncos to have a 7-10 record this season. Is a losing record on the table for the Broncos, or is this an overreaction from Week 1? We preview both Colorado and Colorado State as they have real tests ahead of them this weekend. Will CSU give #11 BYU a scare in Fort Collins?
