Vic Fangio was a defensive-minded coach, so the team’s offensive plan fell on former offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur from 2020-2021.
Few would argue that Shurmur got the most out of Denver’s offensive players during his tenure. Shurmur didn’t adjust his scheme to best fit the strengths of Broncos players like wide receiver Jerry Jeudy or tight end Noah Fant — at least it didn’t appear that he did.
New head coach Nathaniel Hackett, a former offensive coordinator, shouldn’t have that same problem.
