What do the Broncos need to do better to beat the Carolina Panthers?
The Broncos have an opportunity to take control against the Panthers—but they need their running game to deliver. On The Drive, Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay break down Denver’s biggest priorities ahead of the 11 a.m. kickoff and why establishing the run could shape the entire game.
Phil makes the case that a productive ground attack would allow the Broncos to dictate the pace, sustain drives and put themselves in position to win. Zach points to Carolina’s struggles defending the run and raises a tougher question: if Denver can’t find success against this matchup, which opponent can it run against?
The discussion puts the focus on execution and whether the Broncos can capitalize on an opportunity rather than let another game become an offensive struggle. For Denver, it’s not just about calling running plays—it’s about making them work consistently enough to control the game.
