During the 08 game against Utah, the whole defense knew the play that was coming based on personnel, yardage, field situation, etc. he said both teams were yelling out the other teams plays and it just came down to execution on who would win the battles.
When Bronco or any other coach harps on execution, they're not just spitting out cliches. By late in the season, I think that a lot of times that is what it comes down to.
