Episode Description

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil share their biggest takeaways from the Broncos and Chargers game yesterday. We acknowledge the positives that came from yesterday's game but share our concerns with Bo Nix and the Broncos offense. Was Sean Payton holding back the Broncos offensive game plan and being too "vanilla" for the offense to be successful? We hear from Bo Nix and his thoughts on the offensive struggles with not being "up" for the game when facing a backup quarterback. We hear from Sean Payton and his funny run in with a Denver sports media member, never being happy with the Broncos performances, and the importance of being the number one seed in the playoffs. We wrap up the show with Zach and Phil handing out their "game balls" for the Broncos after their win.
