    OBT: If the Broncos Fall Short Again — Avs Pain, AFC Title Flashbacks & Denver’s Real Expectations

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into a question that hits a little harder after watching the Avalanche get swept in the Western Conference Final: If the Broncos make it back to the AFC Championship… and lose again… how will Broncos Country feel. Denver already lived this once — a 14‑win season, an AFC West title, and a crushing loss one step short of the Super Bowl. The Avs just lived the same script. So what happens if the Broncos run it back, add superstar WR Jaylen Waddle, keep the core intact… and still fall short. Can the Broncos get that far again. Absolutely. But what would cause them to stumble: early‑season gauntlet, Bo Nix plateauing, injuries, defensive regression, or the offense not fully clicking under Davis Webb. And if they fall short, does the fanbase feel pride, frustration, or something in between. This is the emotional reality of a contender — expectations rise, and so does the pressure. 🔥 In this episode: Why the Broncos can return to the AFC Championship What would cause them to fall short despite a “run it back” roster How adding Jaylen Waddle changes expectations — and pressure What Broncos Country’s reaction would be to another near‑miss Why the Avs’ loss puts Denver’s stakes into sharper focus Drop your take in the comments — if the Broncos fall one game short again, how would YOU feel about the season.

    Do the Broncos Have a SURPLUS at ILB, and How To Get Them All on the Field? | Orange & Blue Today

    On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey breaks down the new blood at inside linebacker, where the Broncos added both draft capital and undrafted talent — and the competition behind Justin Strnad and Alex Singleton is suddenly one of the most fascinating battles on the roster. Seventh‑round pick Red Murdock brings instincts, tackling reliability, and special‑teams value that could help him climb the depth chart faster than expected. Priority UDFA Taurean York has the IQ and leadership to make a real push for the 53‑man roster, especially if he shines on teams. Then there’s the wild card: Jonah Elliss. A natural EDGE, he’s been dabbling at ILB — but is that a temporary experiment, or could he take on a bigger‑than‑expected role inside if Vance Joseph wants more speed and disruption in the middle. Could one of these young players — or Elliss — eventually push Alex Singleton for snaps. What’s the long‑term plan for Joseph’s defense, and how does this youth movement fit into it. 🔥 In this episode: How Red Murdock can rise quickly in the ILB room Why Taurean York has a real path to the 53‑man roster Whether Jonah Elliss becomes more than an ILB experiment How the young linebackers fit behind Strnad and Singleton What Vance Joseph’s long‑term vision looks like at ILB Drop your thoughts in the comments — which young linebacker makes the biggest impact for Denver in 2026.
