Keys to the game.
1. The defense isn’t great. They’re going to give up big chunks of yards between the 20’s. We really need the defense to play strong in the red zone and try to hold teams to field goals.
Check! The defense held Denver to 15 points (3 FG’s, 1 TD).
2. The special teams has to be a huge part of the game. We need big returns to set up the offense (or score) and we need to win the field position battle.
Check! Moorman put a punt on the 1 yard line, Parrish took one to the house and McGee had a nice game. Plus, the coverage teams took care of business.
3. Rookie running back Lynch needs to have a nice game.
Check! 90 yards and a beautiful touchdown run in which he carried about 3 broncos into the endzone.
4. We need JP to manage the game, keep the defense off the field, hit some intermediate throws to WR’s (Maybe just one). Basically, we need JP to play like a vet QB in a big game.
Yeah, I guess this one didn’t happen!
