The playcalling the last few years has been atrocious. Too much sideways BS. And to make matters worse too much running straight into 8-10 man fronts. I lay that on the coaching. 3rd and 5 inside the 20 and we run a toss play. After gaining 1 yard on 1st down against a 9 man front we run the ball straight up the gut against another 8-9 man front on 2nd down. Elway beat us int he playoffs arguably on a short pass to Sharpe over the middle when we were stacked to stop TD. It wasn't a great pass or a pass that took a great QB to make. It was a simple play call for Sharpe to chip, if that and just get behind the stack and Elway just tossed it up there. Don't think he scored on that play as it was mid-field but it was a play that really broke our back.
