David Bruton's film study makes him the latest Broncos clutch playmaker

Football is a lot like school. Preparation breeds success.

Against the Detroit Lions on Sunday night the formation Broncos safety David Bruton saw was familiar, the play predictable. Bruton watched the Lions run what he called a wrap-six countless times on film, so when Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson broke open, there was no hesitation from Bruton. .

"Once I saw the running back chip before his release, I knew what was coming."

He focused on Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford.

"I just read Stafford's eyes, broke on the ball and was able to make a play," Bruton said.
