Broncos' offense shows rare life under Drew Lock

HOUSTON -- Maybe not "Infinity and Beyond," but Broncos rookie quarterback Drew Lock's historical day Sunday kept the Denver Broncos' slim hopes alive to finish a season at the .500 mark after an 0-4 start.

With Lock behind center for just his second career start -- his first start on the road -- the Broncos' offense rumbled to life Sunday as Denver scored more than 24 points for the first time in more than 400 days with a 38-17 victory over the Houston Texans.

Lock, whose large wristband with the playcalls typed on it has inspired teammates to call him Buzz Lightyear, finished 22-of-27 for 309 yards and three touchdowns.
