The Broncos’ game-day inactives against the Chargers and Steelers were almost the same - with the exception of one player. Demarcus Walker continues to be a healthy scratch. He now has fewer total NFL defensive snaps (121) in 1.5 seasons than Justin Simmons gets in two games. Max Garcia was placed on the IR, but instead of keeping Sam Jones https://www.broncosfanstore.com/Devontae-Booker-Jerseyactive for game 11, Cyrus Kouandjio was re-signed and activated, creating a situation in which all of the Broncos’ tackle depth is playing guard right now. Broncos do actually have a tackle on the practice squad after re-signing Dan Skipper (who was measured at the NFL combine at 6-foot-9.6 inches tall) to the practice squad after Andreas Knappe (who had been the only OT on it) was lost for the season to an injury. Skipper is the second tallest player ever invited to the NFL combine. He’s terrible at blocking, but he’s tall and John Elway likes tall players. Offensive snap percentagesBroncos used Kouandjio on two plays as a sixth offensive lineman, meaning Broncos had five of its 11 offensive players as offensive tackles. That has to be an NFL record. Andy Janovich played a season high 37 percent of the offensive snaps.I thought that this might have been a career high, but I had forgotten that Broncos used Janovich way more in 2016 than ever since. Jano was only healthy for 11 games in 2016, but he played 235 offensive snaps. In 2017 he was healthy for the entire season yet only totaled 164 snaps, never playing more than 18 offensive plays in any game. His 189 offensive snaps in 11 games this year already tops his total from 2017. Jano’s 21 snaps against the Steelers were a season high for him. It was the most offensive snaps he has gotten since he played 32 in the home loss to Kansas City in 2016. Tim Patrick was a player who lost snaps to Janovich on Sunday. Phillip Lindsay’s 63 percent on Sunday was a career high for him as was DaeSean Hamilton’s 51 percent of snaps.Brian Parker Adam Gotsis Color Rush Jersey , who will see the field more now that Jeff Heuerman is lost for the season (again), got a career high 16 percent of the offensive snaps. Expect that to go up against Cincinnati.Defensive SnapsVon Miller got a fair amount of rest this last game, only playing 69 percent of the defensive snaps after playing 90 percent in Game 8. Shelby Harris saw a season high 46 percent of the defensive snaps against the Steelers and that worked out well. Domata Peko played a season low 33 percent. With the release of Adam Jones and the in-game injury to Tramaine Brock, Isaac Yiadom was pressed into service, seeing 29 percent of the defensive snaps. Is there anything else that jumps out to you in the trends here? Sound off in the comments. Case Keenum was off-target early and often against the 49ers. I looked at every throw he made in the first half. On those throws where he was attempted to complete a pass (not throwing the ball away) he was accurate on eight of fourteen. Overall he was 7 of 15 for 43 yards in the first half. Below is an analysis of all 17 of his throws (one was negated because of the roughing penalty and one was negated because of the grounding penalty). When he was missing, he was missing badly. First throw of the game from Keenum - Sutton would have had to make a spectacular catch to grab it This was Keenum’s second throw - Tim Tebow approves of this throw to the grass in front of Phillip Lindsay. Keenum’s 4th throw - Lindsay has to make one-handed snag. 5th throw - high and way in front of PatrickI think you get the picture. Keenum, who is supposed to be a very accurate passer, was not in the first half on Sunday. Many of these throws were not under pressure, so he has no excuse for his inaccuracy. Why does this bother me so much? Because Nick Mullens was accurate with almost every pass he threw in the first half. I looked at all of his throws in the first half. Here is the same analysis for him. Remember that he is their 3rd string QB called up from the practice squad making his 5th NFL start. Even if we call his tipped passes inaccurate throws Phillip Lindsay Jersey , Nick Mullens was accurate on 22 of his 29 throws in the first half against us. He had six passes tipped at the LOS and finished the first half 16 of 24 for 271 yards and two TDs. If we leave out the tipped passes, he was accurate on 21 of 23 throws. And yes, I know that we were playing a street free agent that was signed a few days prior, Jamar Taylor, and a rookie with very little game experience, Isaac Yiadom, at cornerback, but it should not be that easy to throw the ball on ANY NFL defense. I also know that we shut their offense down in the second half; Mullens was 4 of 9 for 61 yards and an INT in the second half. They scored zero points in the second half. Why did it take us the entire first half of the game to adjust? Also can someone explain to me why our $18 million/year QB couldn’t get it close to his intended receiver most of the first half while their undrafted practice squad QB looked like Tom Brady?
