Broncos Biggest Studs & Duds in 16-9 Loss to Jets
It's the same story, just a different week, as the Denver Broncos again fielded arguably the best defense in the NFL, with an offense that might be the worst in the league. Despite having a backup quarterback, the Broncos looked almost identical to the previous six games offensively, and the coaching decisions were, again, highly questionable as the New York Jets emerged victorious on Sunday, 16-9.
Who were Denver's biggest studs and the duds in yet another embarrassing loss?
Stud: Dre'Mont Jones | DL
Dud: Brett Rypien | QB
Stud: Greg Dulcich | TE
Dud: Nathaniel Hackett | HC
Stud: Jerry Jeudy | WR
Dud: Brandon McManus | K
This one is pretty simple. You can't have your kicker miss an extra point attempt and a crucial field, especially when the kicker opposite him was perfect on the day in the same windy conditions.
It's been an interesting season for the longest-tenured Bronco. If Brandon McManus doesn't start to do a little bit more, there could be an interesting conversation about this position moving forward.
