Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton is facing questions about the team’s struggling run game following a 13-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Payton emphasized the need for patience and commitment to finding a scheme that fits the players. The Broncos have struggled to rush for over 100 yards in recent games, with the run game being a weak link in the offense. Running back Javonte Williams has been unable to provide a spark, averaging just 1.5 yards per carry against the Steelers. Issues with run-blocking and poor execution have contributed to the struggles. The team’s inability to rely on a hot hand, demonstrated by running back Tyler Badie not receiving any carries after a 16-yard rush, remains an issue. Payton acknowledged the need for improvement in the first four weeks of the season. Despite frustrations, Williams expressed the team’s determination to fix the issues and stay consistent. The Broncos will need to address their run game woes to establish a more effective offensive attack moving forward.
