Broncos 28, Bills 17Great game...in the second half! Rod Smith had an amazing game! 11 receptions for 137 yards is a great day! What about the Lelie and his 40 yards...all on one play! And lets get straight - that was an amazing catch. In the post-game interviews Lynch had a great quote about that catch - rough summary, "We needed a spark, and Lelie gave it to us. When he made that catch it ignited us! And I don't know how he made that catch but it was amazing!"
Another interesting thing to consider: Rod Smith's first catch of his career as a Bronco was in 1995 against Washington. Wesley Duke's first catch of his career was Saturday and it was a touchdown. Could Duke be the next Rod Smith?
Finally, it was interesting to see the locker room after the game. No excitement really for clinching a playoff spot. Even Lynch in his interview was like, "We aren't jumping off the rafters in here, we have bigger aspirations!"
You gotta love the focus of this team right now! This week...the Raiders at home and a chance to go 8-0 at Invesco Field!

It was a good win for them but they have to get back to running to ball! If they keep trying to pass as much as they did in the first half they're in trouble in the playoffs. But Rod Smith is the man!
I agree, but let me offer this perspective of the game. Shanahan saw something this week in the Bills defense that he thought he could expose. He tried it. It didn't work. At halftime he made the adjustment - ran the ball and took over the game. One of the many reasons why I love Shanahan. I don' think they are in any trouble at all because of his ability to adjust to what happens during the game!
