The Denver Broncos charge into the bye week at 9-2 — can the run game spark them deeper into the second half of their season? With J.K. Dobbins sidelined due to a Lisfranc injury, the spotlight turns to RJ Harvey and Jaleel McLaughlin to carry the ground attack.

Cody Roark, and Sayre Bedinger debate whether Sean Payton will seek veteran help like Jamaal Williams, and assess if Harvey’s vision and patience can match Dobbins' previous production while discussing a rush in development about pass protection, red zone execution, and offensive consistency down the stretch.

Plus, the Broncos could be getting some key guys back after the bye week including Patrick Surtain II, Jonah Elliss, and Alex Singleton.

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.
