It’s uncommon in Broncos Nation for followers to extremely agree — aside from that we hate the Raiders and Chiefs.
So when a ballot generates a response the place 95% agree, it’s noteworthy.
Primarily based on our SBNation Reacts ballot, this crowd has excessive expectations for Davis Webb in his new position as Broncos’ offensive coordinator, and extra notably, its play caller.
For the document, I 100% agree with the probability that Webb’s play design goes to be “smart and creative.“ I have thought that ever since his preseason game last year where head coach Sean Payton handed over the headset for the night.
So I am really looking forward to what is in store.
And from his comments this week at OTAs, Webb is ready for the challenge — but he isn’t cocky enough to believe he knows everything.
In fact, the reasons he hesitated to jump on any OC jobs around the league was that he loved Denver, this Broncos team and learning from Payton.
“I’ve been blessed my whole life to be around a lot of good coaches,” he mentioned, highlighting a number of coaches across the league he has labored with — Rams Assistant Head Coach Kliff Kingsbury, Titans Offensive Coordinator Brian Daboll, former NFL coach Ben McAdoo, Chargers Passing Recreation Specialist Adam Gase, Lions Move Recreation Coordinator Mike Kafka. “Then the best one I’ve been with is upstairs, gold jacket, Hall of Fame head coach, play caller, culture builder. So for the last three years, sitting next to [Sean Payton] in every single staff meeting, every single offensive game plan meeting has rubbed off in a lot of ways. He was great that day, and it’s been a really good start thus far.”
Webb enjoys having Payton as a useful resource whereas he builds his play-calling resume, and he says that is nonetheless “a Sean Payton” offense.
“No. 1, that was one reason why I wanted to be here was with Sean here,” Webb mentioned. “I trust him; he trusts me. We think very similar. I know how he wants the game to be played. It’s the same offense for the most part, just little tweaks here and there, but this is a Sean Payton-coached football team, a Sean Payton offensive philosophy, and we’re just going to grow with our QB, and our skill players and our offensive line.”
However Webb can also be excited so as to add his mark to the 2026 Broncos’ offense.
“We have one of the best guards in football. We have Luke Wattenberg, the smartest center I’ve been around. We have a left tackle that can pass pro[tect]. We have a right tackle that can do it all,” he mentioned. “So this is a fun of offense to be a part of. The most attractive thing was leaning on Sean, being in game plan meetings with him, using his experience. I think that’s going to benefit a young play caller. I’m not dumb. I know this is a lot.”
However it’s good when your group simply added an All-Professional extensive receiver into the combination.
“He’s good. (Laughs) He’s a really good player,“ Webb said of Jaylen Waddle
He even compared the potential for Bo Nix and Jaylen Waddle to be like Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs when Webb was coaching in Buffalo.
”It doesn’t imply it’s going to [be like that], we received an extended option to go, however man, [Waddle] is nice,“ the coordinator said. ”I’ve simply loved the individual and simply watching him work. He’s a blessing to be round. He’s a multiplier. He’s a thermostat. Very, excellent. That’s a credit score to George. That’s a credit score to Sean. We don’t usher in dangerous individuals right here. Now we have actually good gamers, and now we have nice group chemistry.”
