Reasons for Denver's new offense

NFL

ESPN NFL Insider Mike Sando spent Sunday with ESPN NFL analyst Jon Gruden and the "Monday Night Football" crew in Cincinnati, site of the Denver Broncos-Cincinnati Bengals matchup in Week 16 (8:30 p.m. ET, ESPN). Sando files a few takeaways from Gruden regarding key storylines for these teams, in Gruden's voice.

1. The Denver Broncos are a new team offensively for lots of possible reasons.

The Broncos broke all sorts of records for offense last season, and it got them only so far. They were cruising along in a similar manner this season until they ran into St. Louis and scored only seven points. I think that might have been a reminder -- a wake-up call -- that they have to be able to run the ball to win it all.
