Broncos allow highest rushing total since 2010 in loss at Jets
Running back Isaiah Crowell (20) of the New York Jets gets tackled by linebacker Von Miller #58 of the Denver Broncos during the second quarter on Sunday, Oct. 7 at MetLife Stadium. The NY Jets hosted the Denver Broncos. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Denver players and coaches called it a matter of poor execution as opposed to poor game planning.
Maybe that makes Sunday’s result feel even worse.
The Broncos said they knew how to stop the Jets’ run game. They simply couldn’t do it. And, when the dust settled on a 34-16 defeat, the results teetered on record breaking. Denver gave up 323 yards on the ground, the most since 2010 (Raiders, 328).
