yes, yes he did
eddie it was exhaustion doggg
the first team hasnt played a full game until then, they played there first full game in denver, where you get tired stupid fast, and on top of that the defense was on the field for most of the game, because for some reason with a 17-14 lead we feel the need to throw the ball 30 more times.
FLACCO THREW THE BALL 62 TIMES. rice got 12 carries, and pierce got 9.
thats not a winning ratio.
but word our offense couldnt stay on the field. dickson had 5 DROPS. 5. clark had like 4 or 5 drops. when someone did catch it, they got nothing because the person catching it was a bum (stokely) or it was a checkdown to rice with half the broncos D around him
but word my only point with this post is thats a bad game to evaluate our defense on. by week 6 the D will be the D it is. its one thing when you have a couple new guys, they usually get exposed. they aint comfy. we got a ton of new dudes, and peyton picked them apart methodically as they were exhausted looking bummy
