2020 NFL Power Rankings, Week 11: Patriots stun Ravens, Cardinals win on Hail Murray
By Randy Gurzi
This one got away from them. The Denver Broncos headed to Las Vegas for a divisional matchup with the Raiders — playing against them for the first time in Las Vegas. At first, it seemed as though it would be close as a couple of Brandon McManus touchdowns in the first half made it a contest in the first half with the score being 10-6. But it went south in the second half.
Las Vegas put up 10 points in the third quarter and then another 17 in the fourth as they won by a score of 37-to-12. Denver fell to 3-6 on the season, which is frustrating for them considering how strong they were to close out the 2019 campaign.
It was also one of the worst games, if not the absolute worst, for Drew Lock. The second-year quarterback was trying to get his team back in this one and ended up making too many mistakes as he had four interceptions and a fumble — which they at least recovered.
Defensively, they had no answers for the ground game as Vegas went for 203 yards and four touchdowns, surrendering two to Josh Jacobs and two to a former Bronco Devontae Booker. With Miami, New Orleans, and Kansas City up next, this season could get away from them as quickly as this game did.
