We all knew this was going to be tough game for the Denver Broncos to win. Not only do the Baltimore Ravens boast the most potent offense in the league, but their run defense is unmatched. Baltimore, on average, is giving up nearly seven yards a game less than the second-best team (Ravens at 75.7 and the next-closest Vikings at 81.9). And the Denver rushing attack has been good, and great at times, but the offensive line and the backs had their work cut out for them.
What we now know, as we look back on the game, is that the Broncos weren’t good enough running the ball on Sunday.
