The Denver Broncos enter their week of preparation for the Los Angeles Chargers without their starting nose-tackle for the rest of the season. Mike Purcell's injury on Sunday is season-ending according Broncos Head Coach Vic Fangio, who met with the media on Monday. Who will be the player that will likely step into the NT position for the Broncos going forward? The offense continues to be the Broncos area of struggle and a lot of fans have directed their anger at offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur. Cody Roark discusses why Shurmur isn't the primary reason for the Broncos struggles on offense and gives fans perspective on what the real issue is.
