I have posted elsewhere that the problem in this case was in the trenches on both sides. Our O line got pushed around after the first drive and Dalton has no time to throw the ball downfield.
in contrast, the Denver QB had all the time in the world even when we rushed 7 on the last TD pass.
The DBS should have caught the ints but the main difference between Denver DBs and ours is that Dalton was under constant pressure while the Denver QB had clean pockets on almost all passes.
We have seen this in three games. We can beat the middle of the road and poor teams but I have real doubts about our chances against any of the upper echelon teams. I do not see any hope of a run in the playoffs with the current o and D lines.
