The defense was on the field for most of the last game and they held the Cleveland Browns out of the endzone on all but one of their drives. The Browns had 35:30 of possession to the Denver Broncos 24:30. The defense earlier this season wilted when they had to play that much, but not this game. This game they held even when they had played hard for more than they should have had to. Usage of some “fresher” legs may have helped this game.
The Broncos offense only converted on 3 of 9 third downs (4 of 9 if you count the penalty conversion).
