Opinion | 'The stadium rocked like 1977, rolling with Rocky Mountain thunder that shook down the echoes of the Orange Crush. On this glorious Sunday night, the Denver defense never rested.' (via markkiszla)
Brandon McManus missed a 53-yard field goal in the third quarter, but he also made a 55-yard field goal in the second quarter. Corliss Waitman turned in a solid game, with a 47.6 average on his 10 punts. Six of those punts were inside the 20 and two were inside the 10. Meanwhile, the kick coverage was decent and Montrell Washington had one punt return for nine yards and one kick return for 14 yards.
With the Broncos facing fourth-and-23 on the San Francisco 41-yard-line in the second quarter, Nathaniel Hackett elected to punt instead of attempting what would’ve been about a 57-yard field goal. The possession before, McManus hit a 55-yarder; why not try the field goal there? Hackett was also 0-for-2 in challenges, losing one in the second quarter and one in the fourth.
