Broncos Focus on Core, Coaching for AFC West

0:00On March 13th, the Denver Broncos are focusing on keeping their own offense of talent instead of chasing big free agents. They've locked in their entire tight end and running back group from last season, including key players like Adam Trautman and JK Davins. With a new play collar coming in, the team believes fresh schemes could unlock their potential without major roster overhalls. Sean Payton's offense has always leaned on a strong fullback, and that's no different now. Last year, they ran plenty of power plays with a fullback leading the way, which powered a solid ground attack early on, even as injuries hit that fullback roles stayed crucial for blocking and short yardage gains. Fans are frustrated, seeing these resigning the small potatoes and a tough AFC West. It feels like a step back when rivals are spending big, but insiders point out this keeps continuity in the trenches where the run game lives or dies. The latest quiet move was bringing back fullback Michael Princess on a team friendly deal.

1:00He was vital when Davins got hurt, setting up big runs and even carrying the ball himself at times. This shores up the scheme without breaking the bank. With their core rushers intact, the Broncos are betting on coaching tweaks to climb the standings. They'll still need more firepower to contend, but this foundation gives them a real shot come training camp.
