The Denver Broncos had several opportunities to beat the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday Night to make it to the playoffs for the first time in nine years, but conservative coaching at times proved to be costly. How did Sean Payton and Vance Joseph struggle to adjust against the Bengals? What did we learn about Bo Nix and the Broncos offense from this game and what is going on with the Broncos defense?

Cody Roark is a credentialed beat reporter for Mile High Sports and covers the Broncos daily in person. Sayre Bedinger is the site expert for Predominantly Orange. Both bring Broncos Country the most in-depth and objective coverage of the Denver Broncos.
