00:00They really didn't try to go down the field.
00:02I wonder if they could have, if they really attempted to.
00:06More than conservative?
00:07Right, would there have been a shot down the field or what would the offense have looked
00:10like if Baltimore had got the DuPont conversion?
00:12Would they have had some plays they were just kind of, I don't know about saving, but...
00:15No, maybe, I mean, maybe they said, we're up 11, we don't need to chuck the ball down
00:19the field.
00:20We're going to play ball control.
00:21We're running the ball fine.
00:23Let's move the chains.
00:24Let's run the clock.
00:25If we have three drives where we're running the ball well in this half, then they're not
00:30going to have time to come back and make up for it.
00:34To that point about running the ball and how well they ran the ball, Benjamin Solak of
00:37ESPN had this.
00:39The Broncos regular season, Broncos and Ravens here, back-to-back stats.
00:44The Broncos were the best team in football on success rate against the run and had their
00:49worst game of the season against the Bills.
00:52And the Ravens were the number two success rate against the run and had their worst game
00:56of the season against the Bills.
00:58So the last two weeks, the Bills opponents, who were the two best defending the run, had
01:05their worst game of the season.
01:07It's a testament to Joe Brady's offense, to Aaron Kroemer, Alec Anderson, the backs, the
01:13line.
01:14Two weeks in a row, you're not even really necessarily doing it with Josh Allen being
01:18superhero, Superman.
01:20It's the run game.
01:22And they kind of ground and pound Baltimore into a huge lead that they were able to hold
01:27on to.
01:28Why don't they make the turnovers?
01:29Why don't they make the mistakes?
01:30Because they're playing from in front and they probably didn't have to.
01:34Can they do that again against Kansas City?
01:36We'll find out.
01:37But they're going to try to probably win the same way and it's on the ground.
