I wonder if the Broncos play with emotion for Kubiak in this one? My answer is yes = the guy is beloved by the players.
It is always an adventure to compete against Phillip Rivers. He can still sling the ball, but he is certainly more of a target for the Broncos pass rush.
We know Siemian is alleged to have the strongest arm of the Bronco's QBs, but Siemian has spent most of his QB reps - working the short passing game. This probably turned out wise as the short passing game - complements the Bronco's run game. Siemian has been hitting the short routes with the receiver in decent stride - threatening a dynamic play - each time that happens. Siemian makes a difference in this game.
Ray and Barrett are doing well, but the Broncos do miss D. Ware's Leadership and all around football knowledge.
There is a perceived problem that the Bronco's MLBs can't cover the pass - and I say that is not true - it is where the problem shows up, but not the source of the problem. The problem with the Falcons as the pass rush did not interfere with the passing lanes - you may not get to the QBs in the short and quick passing game, but you have to get into their passing lanes.
You can bet - the Broncos need to fix whatever they think went wrong with the Falcons -because every other team is going to copy that strategy until the Broncos stop it.
I think the Broncos are too talented and deep to lose to the Chargers for a 2nd bad game in a row. Add to that the emotional factor of Kubiak's medical problem. I think the Charger only have a sluggers chance to beat the Broncos.
