What happened: Denver remains without a settled run game as the regular season advances. The ground attack provided little support for the offense in a 24-14 defeat in its latest outing.

Why it matters: A reliable ground game eases pressure on the passing offense and helps control possession. Without it, Denver risks leaning into one-dimensional plans as the schedule moves forward.

What to watch: Watch whether Denver settles on a rotation and generates early-down production in its next game.
