Broncos need to eliminate drops that plagued them vs. Steelers

The Broncos bested the battered Steelers in Sunday’s divisional game to advance in the playoffs, but that didn’t stop Aqib Talib from calling out his opponent. When Manning won a Super Bowl XLI with the Colts, the couple were in complete agreement on the name for their second son, Peyton, now 8, who was born the following August. The Patriots are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 meetings in Denver and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 meetings overall. “When we needed it, we got that big drive and we got that big touchdown that really put us up”. So if the Broncos want to beat the Patriots, Manning is going to have to play the best game he has all season.

Bryant may have been so open because Denver’s defense was in zone a lot, with Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris Jr. dealing with a sore shoulder.

“Even though these games have finality to them that some games in the regular season or preseason don’t have, he approaches it the same way”. In this article, we are going to analyze the postseason history of this matchup, leading to a final conclusion on which quarterback has the edge. The 37-year-old linebacker continues to play at a high level, though he split time with 2013 first-round draft pick Jarvis Jones. A large part of the poor performance was the dropped passes by the Bronco receivers. It was an epidemic, with almost every receiver, including Demaryius Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, Bennie Fowler, and running backs Ronnie Hillman and C.J. Anderson each dropping at least one pass. Fowler made up for it with his 31-yard catch on third-and-12 to set up Denver’s only touchdown. “But he made a lot of plays, too”.
