Hey Brandon, thanks for writing in and getting us going this week.
At the basic level, no, I don’t think Sean Payton and the Broncos offensive coaching staff is sitting on some big, secret set of plays that they’ve just been waiting to unveil.

First, here’s what Payton himself said when asked if they played intentionally basic on offense over the final two weeks of the regular season against the Chris Oladokun-led Kansas City and the Trey Lance-led Chargers.
