Brandon McManus was fun every day but Sunday. The Broncos kept writing checks McMoney’s leg couldn’t cash.
Over Big No. 8’s last 15 field-goal tries at Empower Field from 50 yards out or longer, the man connected on just eight. Since September 2017, from a distance of 54-65 yards at Mile High, he nailed six and missed eight (42.8%).
Context: Five opposition kickers have tried that kick from the same length here during the previous six seasons. Four of those five attempts — 80% — were true.
McManus is a crazy good dude, a thinking man’s kicker, professional to the last.
