A lot needs to be hashed out in the Bronco's offense, but the Broncos figure to be better in the red zone for the following reason:

The Broncos have the ability to line up in the red zone with D. Thomas at 6'3", C. Sutton at 6'4", Jakes Butt at 6'6" and Troy Fumugali at 6'6" - throw in Royce Freeman with 60 college TDS and Case Keenum at QB - and well on paper - that would be very hard to defend. A few teams have one Dback 6'1" or taller - some have 2 that tall - none have 3 or 4 tall Dbacks.

It will be a total bumfuzzle if the Broncos can't take advantage of this and score a lot more TDs.

Been very frustrating in the red zone the past 3 years.

I saw Royce Freeman making the Marcus Allen up and over end zone dive for TDs in the highlight films. Man how I hate watching him do that. Marcus Allen's only saving grace was he didn't like Al Davis either (like Mike Shanahan - Al screwed Marcus Allen out of a bonus too).

I always felt like Siemian got scared in the RZ. Like he looked so stupid once we got into the red zone. He just looked really uncomfortable. (Probably because he wasn't use to it)

He always looked like a guy that was told "just don't turn the football over" so if his first read wasn't open in the first second of the play he just panicked and either took a sack or tried to throw the football away. I'm excited to see what Keenum can do with his ability to manipulate the pocket and also not be afraid to let our receivers go make a play. Sometimes you just have to trust your playmakers to do something.
