Broncos offensive line has allowed 12 sacks during 3-game losing streak. Are issues fixable?
Linebacker Josh Allen (41) of the Jacksonville Jaguars tackles quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (5) of the Denver Broncos in the first half of the game at TIAA Bank Field in Jacksonville, Fla., on Sept. 19, 2021.An opening-drive touchdown gave way to more struggles for the Broncos’ offense Sunday against Las Vegas — interception, punt, punt, punt and sack to finish the first half.
But down only 10 points, the Broncos received the opening second-half kickoff and a chance to start a comeback. Instead, quarterback Teddy Bridgewater ended up on his back on three consecutive drop-backs. The Broncos punted (again) and the Raiders scored (again) to take command of an eventual 34-24 shellacking.
