Broncos' Bold Move: Webb Takes Play-Calling

0:00On March 14, Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton is catching some serious criticism this off-season, even after a strong 14-win season that ended in the AFC Championship loss. The big shake-up came on offense, where they parted ways with coordinator Joe Lombardi and handed play-calling duties to quarterbacks coach, Davis Webb, starting next season. Payton hinted he saw this coming during the year, and believes Webb's talent will boost the team, though he'll stay involved. Meanwhile, the roster looks steady with recent resigning of linebackers, Alex Singleton, and Justin Strohnad, running back JK Dovins and Joliel. McLaughlin, plus Y receiver Lil Jordan Humphrey. Fans are fired up online, arguing the Broncos should go all in during Bow-Nix's rookie contract window instead of playing it safe. Many see the quiet, free agency approach as a mischance to build a Super Bowl contender right now. Right now, Denver stands alone as the only NFL team without an outside free agent signing.
