The Broncos started the game with three consecutive punts (one first down). They looked out of sorts, but down 10-0, they scored on five consecutive possessions (three touchdowns and two field goals). Quarterback Drew Lock was efficient (25 of 33 for 192 yards), wasn’t sacked and was smart with the football. Major praise to the offensive line, which had Jake Rodgers at right tackle and Patrick Morris at left guard. The Broncos rushed 33 times for 150 yards and Phillip Lindsay had 109 yards.
Defense: Two big plays allowed
The Lions entered averaging 360.
