Everyone was worried about the run D in the preseason.

Well, if we can shut down the Broncos rushing attack, who's CAN'T we stop???

Seriously, their system is powerful and they usually rush for well over 100 yards a game.

We held them to 70 yards rushing today. :woot:

Also, 30 of those yards were on one play. Without that one mistake by the D, the yardage could have been much lower. :D
 
We looked great, especially on goal line situations. To their defense though, Mike Anderson left early in the game and we didn't see him at all.

Yeah, but remember what Tatum Bell did to us last year?
 
That was seriously surprising. I honestly did not expect that in the least.

The Broncos OL is supposedly the holy grail of OL's where you can plug any RB in there and have success.
 
Yeah, the Stewies predicted Denver would have 160 rushing yards. That's one I'm glad we missed.

Except the fans on the Bronco boards were all yelling to start Bell.
 
I said before the game many times that Tatum Bell was much more dangerous than Anderson, and it showed on that one run. However, he has a tendency to do stupid things, and it didn't seem to matter who was running when we were through their line every play.
