Worst statistic
The Broncos offense was held to only 13 points and did not score until 5:31 left in the game. Prior to their two scoring drives, the Broncos were held to only nine first downs and 113 net yards.
Their inability to move the ball was obviously most directly linked to the five interceptions but they also only ran the ball 16 times to 44 pass attempts. Additionally, they only managed to convert 3-of-14 third down attempts.
“We have just got to play better as a whole. It was probably our worst performance since one-eight (Manning) has been here. We’ve just got to go back to the drawing board and see what we can do better. It’s not going to be easy because they (opposing defenses) are throwing a lot of different things at us,” Demaryius Thomas said after the loss.
