Broncos 3rd & long: a six-pack of suck, playing the blame-game on six allowed sacks

So this week I’m going to figure out who is to blame for each of the six sacks that the Denver Broncos allowed on Sunday, but first I’ll talk about their third down defense, which was superb again for the second week in a row.

Denver forced the Green Bay Packers into nine 3rd downs and only one was 3rd & short. Six were 3rd & long. They only converted two, but one of them was the 3rd and 15 where Denver gave up a 28-yard catch. That was on Trey Marshall. He played two defensive snaps and managed to screw up royally on that one.
