On passing downs, prior to this game, our substitution pattern on passing downs is as follows:
sub in a LB for a DE. That's it. No other change. The LB lines up in the exact same spot the DE would line up in. So, really, there is no change in the defense except for a personnel change, putting in a guy that's more of a threat to get to the QB.
So why does Bronco call this a nickel package?
