ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Denver Broncos' sideline actually showed a little bit of life when kicker Brandon McManus hit a 45-yard field goal to cut the Buffalo Bills' lead to 13-3 midway through the third quarter on Sunday.
The Broncos had a sliver, be it ever so small, of momentum to cling to.
But from then on, the offense went into full-blown, almost historical hibernation on a cold, wind-swept day in western New York. The Broncos did not come close to scoring another point during the final 22 minutes of a 20-3 loss.
