Denver Broncos: Drew Lock leads balanced offensive effort

It was only the fourth career start for Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Drew Lock, but he looked like a seasoned veteran out there in his first come-from-behind victory.

Lock and the Broncos got off to a slow start, both offensively and a little bit defensively, and definitely on special teams, giving up a punt return touchdown to the Lions which put Denver in a 10-0 hole.

At that point, an injury to Elijah Wilkinson forced the Broncos to break the 'in case of emergency' glass and put Jake Rodgers in at the right tackle position, and for whatever reason, it was at that point that the offense really started humming.
