What happened: Dan Orlovsky questioned why Nix is bypassing open routes. The criticism centers on Denver's early-game disconnect and timing getting the quarterback in rhythm.

Why it matters: Slow starts have put Denver behind schedule before the offense settles. The focus on Nix's reads comes as Webb handles play-calling duties for the first time in Denver.

What to watch: Denver turns to correcting early-down execution and rhythm heading into Week 5.
