The Denver Broncos' offense put together an uninspiring outing in their 30-6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Former NFL great Troy Aikman, who was commentating the game, was not impressed, to say the least. He went as far as saying that the Broncos' offense is ‘about as bad an offense as I've ever seen' and it's difficult to disagree with that assessment.

It doesn't take long to see that the results that the Broncos achieved on offense were abysmal. Aside from scoring only six points, they managed to record just 205 total yards and went 1-of-13 (7.7 percent) on third-down conversions. It is nearly impossible to win football games with offensive execution so poor and their defense certainly didn't make up for it.

Entering Thursday Night Football, the Broncos were averaging only 17.7 points (26th) and 336.2 total yards of offense (25th) while converting during only 33.3 percent of their third-down conversion attempts (25th). After another poor display, their season-wide production will go from bad to awful.

Worst of all, the Broncos allowed the Chiefs to sack Joe Flacco nine times for a total loss of 79 yards. It was the most times within a single-game that Flacco has been sacked since the start of his NFL career. The pressure placed on the the quarterback by the Chiefs was key in ensuring a victory despite Patrick Mahomes exiting the game early due to injury.

The inability to protect the quarterback played a key role in their total of 134 passing yards against the Chiefs. However, Flacco's individual performance has been underwhelming throughout the season. To put it into perspective, he has now played in more games than he has recorded touchdown passes so far this season.

There is a lot of work for the Broncos to do on the offensive side of the ball. It seems that most of it will need to happen through roster changes in the offseason rather than player development throughout the season.
