1980 09 29 ABC MNF Broncos at Patriots

[Music] we're live from Schaefer Stadium in Foxborough Massachusetts ABC's NFL Monday Night Football the Denver Broncos I guess the New England Patriots that's the crowd as you see it at Shaffer Stadium in Foxborough Massachusetts hello again everyone Denver against New England traditionally these two teams play a high-scoring game we hope to have one for you tonight Denver's struggling against a taxing schedule and struggling after its first three games hoping to come alive no England a very important game for the Pats because a win tonight keeps them tied with Miami and staying only a game behind the astonishing Buffalo Bill under any circumstances the Pats the squad this year troubled internally poor holdout Sam BAM Cunningham is still away he's up for grabs so is an underrated but very solid quarterback Tom Owen but back and to see action tonight activated as recently as 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time today the great cornerback number 40 Mike Haynes and the flashing nose tackle number 64 Richard Bishop to fill you in further on the Pat here is the ineffable Frank Gifford you are amazing coach yesterday London tonight Boston Las Vegas on Thursday and then of course Chicago next Monday night Oakland my head in the Smithsonian the Patriots led by Steve drug and he's playing the kind of football to pick you thought he could play since they drafted him back in 1975 he can do it all but he's been erratic over the past few years he is the leading path to the AFC after three games coming into tonight's game and he has some great outstanding receivers out on the outside of course Harold Jackson you know him he's been around 13 years but family Morgan number 86 for the Patriots is developing into one of the great deep threads in pro football today's plus seven passes thus far this season for them for touchdown two of them last week 68 and 40 yards against Seattle needs a key factor in that game New England chasing Buffalo of course in the AFC East and they know they're going to have a case on the hands Buffalo is poor and Oh Denver well they have San Diego the division of San Diego with Porto right now Denver is one and two man he was never one and to the dandy man Don that's right you're right how are hip they've had a real tough schedule girl when Matt Robson came to Denver he was a lot of folks for referring to him as the Messiah he's going to lead them back to the Super Bowl well massage had some trouble that's a tough schedule he's also coming in a 9th game with only four and healthy running back and that's not gonna help a lot you know it's kind of incredible that a guy could play three ball games in the NFL and not taught touchdown pass but he hasn't done that yet he's a good runner we may seal out that tonight but if he doesn't get the ball in the air it's always good to know that some we're standing back there the wings is the ever reliable Craig Morton and Craig is still around he's noted as maybe the most pure passer on the team but the leader at least for tonight is their quarterback the new offensive captain Matt Robinson and Frank don't get kicked off Frank let's get it going all right set to go it appears we'll be close to a sellout crowd here in New England the game was not sold out 72 hours before consequently they're in the television blackout in the area and as you can see that Enver Broncos have won the toss and touch the kickoff will be Mike rubato he does the kicking for place kicker John Smith and dropping deep for Denver looking back down at the goal line Larry Brunson recently picked up there he's been around to some time led the league last year returning kicks and of course he is in there because tonight the Denver Broncos had to put Dave Preston on injured reserve so he wants the action and I were set to go New England shoot one before the season Denver's one and two cubot hits it it is taken by Princeton at the 4 yard line and Brunson look for the wedge and gets out of the 20 yard line it piled up there there's the asset crowd here tonight a receipt the offensive unit for the Denver Broncos a quarterback Matt Robinson who came this last year in a trade from the New York Jets they are hurting in the running back area not on the wide post civilian Haven Moses and of course Rick Upchurch dangers from anywhere there is your offensive line set to go they mark it at the 20 yard line Denver's first possession that Robert who brings him up last week he suffered a killing blow for interception to get San Diego and they avoided competing Denver 32:13 they need to bounce back tonight handoff motor-car thrown in there for an injured a press in the first quarter wrong a great performer over the years off and on for the Broncos he now in his eight-year marriage if offensive unit that will be enhanced considerably by the return of Richard kitchen although he's among these Chiefs pot duty tonight those are your linebackers what Steve knuckles number 57 and there they are the secondary made up all of number one graphic to when they bring mark Haines in tonight as the fifth man in the nickel they will be five of them in all number one pick arm front with a five-yard pickup second down and five opening arms hung out over the 40-yard line the first round popping football and they say no they'll bring him back Armstrong was down at the 40 hit there by Tim Fox it'll be first down Denver and they'll market at the 41 yard line Aria is a great all-american at Purdue back a few years ago he led the national football league in rushing in 74 as a matter of fact a fourteen hundred and seven yards and let's look at the quickness again they just stopped to ride the line Frank a little delayed draw big big hole right there he got an idea when you see a hole that big that somebody may have made a mistake on the defense farmer was hurt after he was down again the first of ten at the 41 yard line of the Denver Broncos were just underway in New England inside handoff Armstrong the workhorse press hard he's got about 45 close to the 46 the Dean of four it'll be second down and six hit there by Rod choke and of course read Miller looking on he's an intense coach he is that he was very unhappy with the play on the left side of his offensive line last week made no bones about it talking of studded and classic right now they've been running to the left side and effectively Miller at fourth-year now he's taken the Broncos to the playoffs and the Super Bowl but hand off this is a big man this is Jim Jensen who has been the workhorse so far for the Denver Broncos this year short of the first down out near midfield it'll be third and about a yard and a half yes that's the guy that Melo was delighted with left in so remember him it's the big kid from Iowa who so impressed Landry in the Cowboys some years back they didn't have for that's the way then but got him and he is defined all-purpose a planing mill afield for coming into a crime now he ever do it out may agree they're down the automat the two tight ends were and that means 85 roneld blossoms in for dinner they have been the short yardage this was just the car for the first down this will depend upon where they market he was close Steve Nelson in there the bottom of that pile of he generally is Mel love fruit sliding over Hamilton and I believe they're going to mark it short of the first down that means it'll be fourth down at Otis Armstrong comes back out to the Denver Broncos on fourth and short and that would indicate that they were going to run and now they've cleaned out the plane there will be new country we saw that kids come up John he's from Texas Capri agent from balance yeah he loves it up on that real thin here in Denver means if I get that ball up in the air it just fails on me not that walking Waco rolling James first-round draft pick out of Tennessee dropping deep he was spectacular returning punt and play favor crust we aim to for the corner boy get it into the end zone touch that come out to the 20 and a 49-yard punt by Luke Brooks rage and now we deceive know he went off it just been hot scored over 30 points in each of the three previous game last year a troubled offseason for Earhart's we poked about that at the top of the show the holdup situation the two of the key performers are back my name the all-pro cornerback from the last four years is back you'll see spot duty tonight as is Richard Bishop Dylan client of course Tom Oh in the quarterback and Sam BAM Cunningham put the damn Italy hook paper you've had the ball thrown 20 yard line following the cutback Morgan the quarterback from there the fake at Ferguson and on Calhoun in a setback [Applause] and it will be back of Ferguson me see the flag goes down sighs - turn it up fields scramble for a yard a yard and a half again this flag is down Rubin Carter sliding out there from the nose position to make the top along with Barney Chapin the defensive left in Denver Bronco a referee tonight as red cash on will be emotion and it's called against little England Patriots and while they mark it off let's meet the office with Steve Grogan the quarterback of course Vegas Ferguson the rookie all-time rushing leader for a Notre Dame the wide receivers and they are a package 29 Harold Jackson and family Morgan Morgan of course with that blazing speed four touchdowns and seven receptions good offensive line we will see many changes in there but we'll keep you posted you heard the call of the red the penalty declined because of Marty's on the first offensive play by Vegas Ferguson second down and eight the Broncos with a lot of confidence in the defense although it has not been playing this year as it has in fact here second down inside the 20 yard line in Norman a big rush 2081 in motion Calhoun gets the call it'll be third down and four defensively Denver what they in there three for much of the time they might trip into a 4-3 and bring in Don Latimer to go with that three you just saw going back as well Randy Gradishar Jackson Rizzo and they're there in there they would like to have Bob Clinton who mean so much to this defensive unit of Denver but he cannot come back in the last with a nice game he's been on the end with you there with a broken arm Bob 24 players good crunch from the night Andy Johnson of Chuck Foreman come in as they do on the captain situation following him bogging down Brogan by eclipsing Tom Jackson the CDs little sideline back at the gym through a time appears to be all over the field now that's what Denver has not been doing so far this year the way they did it in past yes that's familiar swarming defense with the linebackers all over the place particularly gratis you're in Jackson that is only their third sack of the year it is Mike ubach Rick up churches people pixal oh let's turn to dangerous returned man picks in the midfield and get to the 45 yard all right before he's buried by the defensive unit of New England they'll market close to the 44 yard line up something down there first was Bop goalie for the New England Patriots Denver will have good field position they'll be at the 44 yard line of a New England and we'll be back at all caper stadium Foxborough the New England Patriots at Denver Broncos Broncos good field position they had the ball at the 44 yard line meant Robertson brings up and off the Jensen and Jensen finds an opening over on the left side besides a 40 yard line there Sam Berlin and rot joke defensively for our healing limit pick up what six it'll be second down and four interesting is this done they continue to run left well it isn't if they're running left and he could say the couple of reasons you mentioned a while ago they were a little bit upset with that stutter didn't classic as a last week maybe they have found somewhere there's fire is grateful at the line of scrimmage in surges forward for a couple of yards it'll be third down and two Steve Nelson in there initially on the stop [Music] the file Johns Ambulance and big nose man ray Hamilton no sugar bear 160th under six consecutive game tonight I don't think it's funny what's that break I'm sorry their game was that he's sorry how many games hundred and six that'll way to go sugar bear we're down and short yardage the state to run mother himself well is it the right Rick up quick coffee receiving fine Chargers football he turns on that first to see that he can really accelerate he gets rounded the 16 yard line Rae Claiborne up touching their first sound Denver I want to tell you number 85 Ron egg lost and is you tallest and replay watch his downfield block that glove is right out there looks to be the Nelson got caught up his linebacker position couldn't get over a fairly good block by hey but he's not gonna hurt him by a real bad with his block because you know the big number 65 that came he was out there for another two that plan good luck it was when high - rental easy to do from up here sighs that would be marked off again to England lest he should be drawn off I think he was they did he was quick procedure call I'll give Denver Hamilton drawn offside that will make it first down in 15 defensively overall thus far then verse 13 in the AFC All Stars number 54 on the iPad still first down right of course bill Brian the center offensively Denver's overall night to the AFC up every game neither team first and 15 again the tarragon scrambled's and worked his way down about the 18 yard line for a gain of three it'll be second down and 12 he really picked that yardage if CPM fox 48 coming there Fox's the guy that knows a real hitter back in the secondary and he's not very thick and he'd gets hurt a lot we were talking to some of their PR people day they said it seems like every three or four plays they straight Fox up off the ground put him back out from the sideline for a while he comes back hits again danger strategically for both teams Rob widel comes in he's a good receiver for Denver and they call him back the fact Tony McGee comes in from a luxury defensive Anderson so often does [Music] second down as well [Music] Coffee 30-yard [Music] video right in DeHaven mother touchdown Denver okay that was right over here Robinson after last week with the four interceptions come back his first touchdown of the year that sleeper that was right on the money through Frankie right secondary people right there as you look at the receiver here Haven Robinson throwing to him has an extra motivation a knife and a he's on national television and he wants to show the country what he can do still resents the way we've treated in New York by the GEMA left sign for puts it through for Denver haha there is on the scoreboard they need seven nothing at seven thirty nine remaining here in the first quarter first pass of the ballgame picking points for Denver we'll be right back Matt Robinson has hit even Moses Denver opted in front seven a nothing set to kick off Fred signboard Horace ivory is deep for New England and they try to keep it away from ivory so victory against Seattle and the ball goes to Courier interior gifts up hot over the 32 the 33 yard line so it'll be second position now but no England Patriots they picked it correctly ivory picked up 150 odd running first time for its ivory return kickoff as a professional this is fourth year I just stare out there how you train guys to do that you know I mean it swim up just seem to be able to do it real well they must put them on a freeway and from a blindfold roof way to pregnant say did that feel good sure first down to England look out now loon and he almost the Lannisters might have got a yard ran into one Bronco right in the middle of the back field they're coming across the line of scrimmage brides and manner of Nathan good penetration across the line kind of locked up in the backfield I never got that bang storage Galahad's it never got any speed going for it yet line of scrimmage so consequently didn't make much yardage bricen mana is another guide Mela hasn't been a happy with he gets no paths rush from them Alzado is gone well that went out later was there they had Hemi there are don't you talk about numbers blood oh no but I know they dropped off an awful lot for a year out later left and over one bill one second down in a grove into the air gun put out into the fryer goes to Baker Ferguson Ferguson little forward to the 40-yard line to the first down he throws down a three out there dandy you didn't do the preseason game up here again Philadelphia when we got our first look at Ferguson as a professional he is much like the younger chuck former he gets yardage that it doesn't you don't think is fair to get and somehow he gets more yardage than you think can be gotten out of the place he's a very deceptively efficient ball player probably why they brought Chuck Foreman air up here dronin Vega should see him every day down and free the ball right at the 40-yard line Frances in motion then Grogan will put it up again again after jumping off refurbishing again who does the first round easy winters on the 50-yard line it'll be marks at midfield first time to England and okay I was good hours we hope remark what witnesses man has and he obviously kept the football but then again if you think back about the great career he had a Notre Dame rushed for over thirty four hundred yards their special backs not too large very durable gift very durable oh yes yes I like what Grogan's doing so far right now he's gonna bring those linebackers up or he's gonna keep hitting perfectly but I'm gonna pull it out for a short while I thought it was getting good deep [Music] [Applause] a small hole there until I see what you're talking 5-yard said that time you know when you think there are only two to be guttin he will get the extra pick up a five it'll be second down and five men but done if you look at the record these teams traditionally play high scoring games and we're ready for one out finger all right boo fine cornerback for Denver Louie right out of the left corner be fully on the right corner they'll need to be tonight because blended the hose actually anymore sucking down a fire that starts with emotion again a thermic version of Jimmy Carter and this time he does not get back to the line of scrimmage will be a loss of a yard that will be third down and six sometimes you wonder Ruben caught us from my enemy so is another great top draft choice for the Broncos Don Latimer the Frankie was saying today you don't think Denver really has the personnel to play the 34 defense they don't have it I think they have the super personnel will play a 4-3 where they could get Latimer in there more and that's what point I was bleeding - Latimer would be in there also from Miami they go to there for three grew very wide open is more than you have the first down inside the 25 booyah right Louie right with grapeseed but he knows he has got to respect family more than one of the best in the league and getting better hey you can see Jackson coming on the line back here he got a little what about your bliss man-to-man with your right that ball was also well thronged rugged his in throw three five his short that was a well-run wrap Lee right couldn't cover him much better than that you want to protect that deep pass and you got Stanley Morgan coming out there with his feet that we've talked about earlier you can respect that we hit it on the head Sudan two times before broken lips for Morgan put it in the Platte the linebackers get laid off that time they covered because of the current Rick Jackson in motion they conferred following a big opening your game another thing I got to tell you funny story Frank you had left after lunch I was sitting with Stanley Morgan and I was talking about what Louie write might do to him because Louie is all-pro every year he said in this league once a guy make Pro Bowl they name him automatically every year right they'll have no chance against me he really say what it Morgan also within the Provo but he'll be automatic from now on this is it Terrell Jackson demotion Vegas Ferguson County Furguson picture down big job ahead he might be the best in the business at the guard position superblock reported and he seems to be happy here now after the grave and a grave walk out of it [Music] hard to believe that a guy six-foot-six that he trimmed down to about 265 dog about Hannah he used to play like 285 and of course he's got good feet the game the five it'll be second down and five the market inside the 7 yard line again that left defensive linebacker was a good defensive play his feet blockers used to try to get on top a linebackers feet he played him off well with his hand it was a big play in fact we raised that very point in a meeting this morning that's where they so Miss Wentz today because he's known as the big play guy and there doesn't usually execute the big play though he's a reasonably consistent player just say a big draw now for New England on third down and long third down and they they can get a first down inside the two they bring in Andrew Johnson number 32 in sub-form another 22 both good receivers put them all in the quarter zone intended for us Francis incomplete really unusual defensive covers they had free back with that Jacqueline I get that there Monica I'm going down at the end move exactly coming on an emotion route in signal going back to the outside however was not doctor that was Chuck Foreman Ansari becomes doing her down in who they had freely visited back Rob Darren back then yeah but Francis and we are going to see John Smith he is five of pixies thus far part trained for it within very six of six when he six yard [Applause] [Music] the first quarter rapidly plays first quarter and Denver's up in 473 will be back this paper stadium right after this message years ago then he went to Kansas said he went to New England now he then went to hopefully makeup activated him once again at Denver and that the kick is my clue box he took the loan way home luboc [Applause] [Music] before moment at the 20-yard line gets up to the 21 yard line bender I will like a possession I made it very crisp and that scoring drive he wanted to go may have had trouble hanging up the points that Robinson on his first completion touchdown Haven Moses last week against San Diego as I mentioned it was a bad day at Black Rock for Matt Robinson but he's come back it is very first touchdown pass with the young season the ball 50 yards and by the pitch to them to the farm and this one Jimmy's in that big 230 pound pullback bulls with way for a couple it'll be second down and eight Ray Hamilton sliding out there defensively for doing him floorboards box being off the final seconds here in the first quarter once again New England 2 and 1 on the season Jason Buffalo

richard fisher was committed there he is in the 64 he's from Ohio I characterized him as a slashing nose tackle what she is very important figure in the New England scheme of things he thought it was going to be traded to Cleveland during a sold-out period the Browns arrived sir but they weren't willing which doing Lin monitor and that will be the final play for the Denver Broncos this time expired Frances on the phone when we come back Denver will have a third down the five Walter 26 eating the sidelines your old teammate Greg Morton yeah he's really a fairly durable he's been while you can see those stats you don't system Pylos but hanging around on the side all the time he played some good football and they hope he'll have to quit football about sitting there and ever he came into play quite a bit last week in was the third down and five the thought of the 26 yard line [Applause] there's a setback video stays in the pocket looks out for template [Music] when we could very well have a holding call and while we figure out the penalty we'll take a look at that for the first quarter crushing advantage clearly she's been noticeably back otherwise they're pretty even the total yards aren't that far apart in the time of possession remarkably equal done almost the same is it you see the team changing on the holding calls for 70 on the offense penalty is declined it's go time it's better holding for Denver New England wants the football they decline the penalty will see Luke trust region dropping deep $38 day Tennessee good feed a 13 5 of her go down there Tennessee [Applause] front page and it doesn't turn over buried under the coverage of the 33 yard line bling would have the football they bring in horse ivory number 23 he's endemic on Calhoun who's in motion on the first antenna mr. calhoune on the right side he picks up three it'll be second down and seven suck it down in seven he's broken he calls most of his own place Jackson to the right of any motion be back back [Applause] - at first over the 45 to the 47 that will be first round with a very sore set of risk that is true but he is playing and I'd said you know you'd bring him down one-on-one you're bringing down like truck and it was Gradishar who brought him down 242 founder he can do it all New England very fortunate they have another fine fight and who filled in when Francis did not played on hepl Beck he's also big a 67 245 pounder on the first content over here over the middle ivory because the first charity leave the quickly cuffs are there by the centerpiece Brock another X first round draft choice for athletes the Pats have personnel coming out of their ears a lot of the same power to Hugh Elmo made from a Jim Plunkett trade when they got four graphics but Sabo on to first 76 for first for the second in 77 they got beat Brock Tim Fox great Claiborne and horse ivory not too shabby not too Jeff they got my cave with their own firm what kind of chart wait watch it with the gun this is our little flag is down but that's a good evidence Dunham it seems to me of white Calhoun is so valuable what we call the in-between he's not big enough for the pullback yet you see the car left and he's quick very quick yeah and he's out it's always nice when you've got that guy that back there's also doesn't mine go up there blocking ever now here and Cal who has done that fairly well in his career particularly if we've got a guy like Ferguson back there with him got a holding call is that what that was marked off against New England here's the call holding during the run number 81 of the offense still second down they just blurt it right out for everyone leave the players you could almost pick out the guilty party but before they even announce because he knows what's coming up imagine my dog Charles getting bad suck it down at 11:00 for the labor at the 45-yard line senator pete brock who all the night the bill when the tennis event like the state for the football out of those when we've got a which is actually [Music] second down linguist from their own 45 over to the air again cacao for John Jackson taking him with him for a first down at the 42 yard line I said that Grogan looked so different from one in the preseason game Frank it's unbelievable he's picking them apart well he's moving around rather gingerly on that sore knee but I do think he is talking to their their coaches to say they really feel he's learned his offense really well they've had a remarkable success in it Brogan religious he's been the starting quarterback he took over with Plunkett left they lost those last 5.5 games of the season then he's got a one loss record the first down at the 43 yard line for the market of and [Applause] quickly into Tom Jackson it was their first along with Jill Rizzo Rizzo 59 Jackson 57 defensively there for Denver native about a yard will be sucking down to nine speaking of drogon he did not work out with the team until last night a beanie aspirated Lundy following last Sunday's for behind victory over Seattle he did one at the Nidre they pass parade [Music] No right there [Music] well then what's a big kite in France Turkey bear [Applause] Frances when Jaxson Bernard Jackson 16 saw Francis's six-six and I don't think there was any question about that I think it was visible to all of you and that's the value of rough Francis a step to speed as well as the thighs to be the deep threat which apartment died in these days and second what's that sighs he knows how to use it he's an excellent leaper on top of say what he's really good at is getting away from a linebacker tight ends of course are hounded by the linebackers with the line of scrimmage line at new Transformer 43 first down forty-three call is against see Poli but I do believe it's against the North Jackson we can't always they kept moving to that call with against after first down : o England they trail 73 at the moment but they are threatening [Applause] the flag is down there and defensively along with Randy Gradishar Bill Thompson up from his safety spot in the 36 back to that last Francis as a injured Krakow down on the field

injured Rocco artificial turf here in New England being treated I'll be back in a moment della Rizzo is the injured Denver Bronco and Denver with already Bob Winstone out of the lineup yeah and he'll afford it is Jill Rizzo [Music] quite a story in this game getting up in the free-agent in 73 and they told him he couldn't pass the physical to Buffalo they left the Merchant Marine Academy in the free agent made the Broncos in 75 it really made it during the seven agora there really made a better player strike and he looked there was a clipping Paul on the play we do not know whether it was against Rizzo Calhoun would fall for clipping by New England and they ball up and move back to the 21 yard line where it will be first out in gold there's the importance to this game the New England as you look at the AFC Buffalo all by itself Chuck Knox just astonishing Miami and New England in the central Pittsburgh in Houston going at it to punishing teams you don't need to be told about them in Cleveland hanging in the West it is San Diego yet Denver with a solid ballclub must have tonight's game thus the importance of it the Denver's to stay in the race they can ill afford the loss of that man as Frank is doable he'll be replaced by Larry Evan Rizzo will get a more complete before on the nature of his injury meanwhile we intensify our following the penalty the cooking call the bar in 521 first down a goal with deck down put it up more than me tonight [Music] by the protocol [Applause] into the end zone and wrathful back of the end zone that's the great young ship from the University of Pittsburgh Matt Cavanaugh that is had a spectacular free thief being groomed for the day when Steve Grogan will give way as everyone does even dandy done their penalty indicated against New England the discussion there of course with Randy Gradishar the acting captain for the Denver Broncos probably will move them back respecting the foot a John Smith field goal kicker from New England illegal motion number 86 on the iPad filter cow Stanley Morgan wide receiver illegal motion by the 26-yard line first down and goal [Music] to the north ivory is a bruise the left shoulder is

they'll put them back down they're closer than where they weren't really sorry developing touch and that's one I think the most difficult thing for a pastor to learn it's awfully hard to do he just his work very hard lay that it's a good path after distance to the goal we're gonna capture [Music] yeah that's well the road that sent jeans they protect their quarterback with the penalty automatic first down about a 50-yard line first and goal two tight ends right now France with 81 after back 80 this will be perfect like a surgical scar [Music] it's a different matter amazing on a couple of play-doh red fill they say what happened they were all the way back for the first Angola 426 one kept in the penalty and they go in on the next play from the two yard line he's drogon off to his best start of his young career passing over 60% coming into tonight a touchdown they haven't been thinkers they've been big one his John Smith for the conversion for the English [Applause] [Music]

field goal [Applause] taken there by fronting short kick punch sometimes forget to the outside move out to the 25-yard line I didn't bear we'll have a first down again where he is a fifth round draft pick back in 75 we didn't go any higher because wrong with his back at the way he came in took over for an injured bucket bucket of course straight into San Francisco with unless the players we named earlier made up a team of super personnel but only a picture pretty Center at the 25-yard line Robinson on first down to the air [Applause] [Music] Odom's is out over the 45 yard line to the 47 business up show this young season when you think to very special tight ends tonight Riley over that man is unquestionably the finest athlete on the Denver team himself a number one draft choice in the past and watching Odom and that great catch by Francis to set up the New England score is same two of the best there are as what they do without question really joke to pray in [Applause] [Music] [Applause] 247 put again on he likes goes down overthrow of rip up church he did too and Robinson went down we just added in there popping Robinson as he released the ball 85 Denver on 2nd again [Applause] going with [Music] as Jim Henson those of the right side it was Julius Adams defensively for New England who stepped offside Mike chuckles made the stop on jimpson down field after Jensen had picked up about seven yards to be an interesting decision on the part of different pick the artist game by Jensen where do they take the five-yard penalty and maintain a first down by the way Frank were told Rizzo has a strained left knee what that portends for the rest of tonight and for the future in fact remains to be seen I think that's one of the tell-tale signs at Denver this year you're seeing that defense which has been their strong suit for so many years Bradley being picked apart a little bit but unfortunate through injuries most of them when I was late leaving a couple of

I've been open [Music] [Applause] [Music] Robinson time to get the ball off [Music] the sack they call him he got help from Richard bishop [Applause] if it's coming in that obvious passing situations that fun is that a real quick moon to the outside probably trying to step up no place to go money we gave that New England from Sachs five consecutive years the olden a propel lucky coming in on the sure path right now we'll see who frustrated the point for Denver role of James settles in back around his 13 yard line Barrios rusty looking for the five iron they'll get it inside 420 back they'll

growth but I would wonder though how here he is hurt he knows he's hurt he so he doesn't make that extra 2 or 3 yards he could have gotten out of bounds and appear to me that time without being hit he picked up a couple more yards but he got hit so frankly I think it's one of the things with trouble broke and he has got a lot of talent over the past four years he has really felt that he had to do it all it's one of the things that quarterback has got to learn he's got the troops out there with him then Brogan has been trying to do everything himself over the years he really settled into using his troop in the proper way and he is off to a great start third down less than a yard to go for the purse [Applause] and if the play-action refers to Morgan at the Great Sea the Morgan not use the feed but he gets the first down out close to the 47 yard line as you look at that picture you see going number 51 you're going to see more and more of him in the games to come and drop and in the

much more so than they were a year ago after the Chuck Fairbanks Ibaka Denson robinson looks over a third down - Riedel again America for Michigan the 35 yard line goes to the 36 in degree fourth-down agenda we'll have to turn over as we had close to the two-minute warning [Applause] one down the last three pen ran into the middle of the line well I guess the way they thought it was going to Herbie in their own endzone that they weren't careful two-minute warning we'll be back at home Denver went on top early in the gun getting on the scoreboard first New England came back answers with a 26-yard field goal by John and then a couple of penalties they pop it in from two yards out Vegas Ferguson putting a New England on top as you see 10 to 7 rolling games now on 4th down dropping for New England positions himself about the 25-yard line loose cut region will cut away for Denver [Applause] Prestage quickly the biggest hunter in the way around 65 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] this play by Brown and brown leather rolling James and James out to the 22 yard line and on the Fox 150 and Wingo that's three tied up [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] drop play Vegas Ferguson [Applause] he thought a yard will be sucking down to nine one in 38 and the clock's ticking away the secretary in the first half apparently seemingly in Dover I could get in and out of very funny [Music] [Applause] [Music] again [Applause] Brogan hangs it up with uncle back right in how spectacular as the ball inside the 35 yard line Mark Jackson in there defensively chief holy came up let's do the call by the [Music] yes New England when you've got to tighten not one but two like Francis and Hasselbeck well I watch weapon perhaps if I got to play quite a bit more than he has been because of Francis's injury and the co-chair well Raymond buried was the god of poverty then he's really developed into a very very soft defense of that night in a little motion rumour ad on the out there I got down there so fast yeah 45 yard gate Hasselbeck with six three sessions having replaced Francis and Francis damaged his ribs in the opening game against Cleveland had six receptions three of those however wilfer touchdown won the game winner last week against Seattle two on the clock [Music] with a freakin violence 15 17-yard line back to the boat Ragan Ferguson courtesy the phase on each page strong running by this 194 town cookie out of motivate check that three-point lead he's gone d5 Curtis refers to the run and no avail through deep the Hasselbeck came back to the penalty kept on the ground he said here the SP find out seconds of me down that's going to half of it over me lieth down again Ferguson close to a first down 56 the Denver in on the stop along with Bill Thompson I think I saw a clip that then you thought well Ron a lot apparently yelped ik broken just run out the clock they just said it right they're running out that was it running out Lilly up here well now I can see that because there's only 20 seconds to go but it was a different situation about a minute how they had two minutes to play I don't understand it that's negative rattlin positive well maybe but maybe just Furguson up there close to a first down they'll bring in the six for a measurement I think I heard 80 on a clip they got Hasselbeck that's like we'll try and make up that half step speed that he needed to play before this then he's improving its walking technique you folks must know that man is yes number 84 one of the greatest wide receivers of how it done struck down in the datum infant a quadriplegic he's fighting back human interest stories recently out of birthday god bless it Darrell most of us could ever stop then recalled to the basement I went to see if it would be forced down it would have been a first down till they take the clipping penalty and that moves New England back to the 15-yard line 20 seconds remaining of that 55 yard [Music] we're not 70 [Music] [Applause] let's back to the 20-yard line inter wants to stop the clock and they do with 11 seconds remaining in the half Denver hoping the clock to punt on fourth down possibly get a return out of bounds where John Smith might be able to attempt the field goal so it's 4th down and 12 funny winner for the New England Patriots we'll be back after this message from that I should have football league I want you to meet Carole a happy person enjoying enough NFL's all-time country's turned leader that of course one of the reasons Denver stops the clock with 11 seconds remaining in the first half on fourth down they wanted see if Maya Kubek a rookie out of Kansas good get the pun away and if he does enter it up church run it back move on leather brown graphic out of cancer Denver blame for the run back pressure pump and Burkett Paul for that's the 37-yard line three seconds remaining on the pole they add a little shots that have been a big mistake I knew a good maybe a little scuffle down on the field and of course for Denver I would say the one thing to do is this the hang it up there the best you can hope you get a bit of Ferris call and of course staff cannot end on a defensive foul Denver has the ball up there all 37 yard line they have brought frets signed for it into the game we have told you about sign for it for Denver he kicked one against Dallas with 55 yards but I don't think sign for his foot could reach this and I might be asking a little bit female well of course you reel after a fair catch you get a free kick free kick we have an option to put the ball in play either from scrimmage or as a free-kick you don't see this very often you can either cut it or kick the field goal going to be [Music] remember different for anyone the whole of the off 73-yard a thick bed of course along the brown the core time is expired the first day the Patriots go to home 10:07 play with action as we get ready now for the second half he'd broken if we have talked about earlier playing on a very sore knee tonight he practiced only once this week and that was last night those is that's from the evening comparable to the ones that he has talked up in the first three games passing for over 60% eight touchdowns coming into tonight's play he's Brogan with the hot hand the early season for New England of course would be told you also at the beginning of the telecast activated tonight Richard Fisher we find offensive lineman for New England who had been holding out throughout the preseason and the first three games as with my canes are brilliant cornerback they have seen spotted action to the farthest even still holding up and up with the wing when Sam Cunningham set to go now not a sellout crowd but close to it [Music] great cutter gets off to the 30-yard line we'll have good field position ABC ABC the kid had just returned that kickoff Frank was very highly regarded in the preseason suddenly he got shaken right there on that return he looked like the kid they regarded Harley in the very beginning all feel appreciate the Preston brown and look spectacular than he thought of miss wrecking balls that field position first again Grogan looks over the Denver Deacon hands off to Vegas vertical he'll lose about a half a yard nailed there by Larry Evans defensively number 56 then number 53 Randy Gradishar after the first one earlier they had spent about even in stats and possession time but there you see the Pats dominated they did they picked it up in the second quarter but they didn't chat for the lives as much as they should have their England once again coming into tonight 2 and 1 on the season maybe plural 1 & 2 they lost a Philadelphia from a rocket van Diego big robbery [Music] again very for me and grovel for all forward out over the 35 to the 37 yard line short of the first down by a couple will be third down and two really unusual three cows at all play could be relief didn't keep the option of a path in it he is tucked up all under his arm and took up make the cowl hood break the fur Ferguson hate to get too critical about it but last Monday at 60cc who from his right knee neither underwent surgery a couple of years ago running around like a kid out there [Music] 37 Illinois in the second Oh Oh [Applause] male before he can get back to the line of scrimmage bryson manner in the air first for Denver and then they're saying we've got the football it's in the big palms of his entire ma you got it Ferguson trying to stretch forward see that fumble at all but Ruby must've see where to take it again let's see what happens right Sandman are their first 66 here it goes you're right big pummel it and hit this round under proved in today's I feel something funny under my stomach now wait a minute what is it it's a football didn't like the way New England closed out the half Otacon strong 24 working with the importer back that Paulson with his arms off an arm flower get hard at the 32-yard line but not until he picks up six every second down and four looks like the old Otis Thomas he thought was drafted when Floyd little was still laughed and I remember what Floyd said I'll welcome him if he can block oh he could block and he cannot run over fourteen hundred yards in 73 his second season been in 74 together [Applause] [Music] holds on to 30 sort of a first down it'll be third down and two defensively for New England Mel Lunsford Ray Hamilton Julius Adams Oh also bring in Tony McGee number 78 as they're designated Task Force sure their linebackers are Hawkins 59 Nelson 57 fifty-four now we see Tony McGee come into the lineup usually about the 31 the commotion [Music] wide open haven Moses the blown defensive assignment and Moses gets inside the ten I'm going to be first down and goal after they have blown assignment the man was in splendid isolation coming in esteem both of these teams rank very low with his dependents standings you've got they can agree that someone somebody pushed be out there for Haven that guy's motion it's been very effective but the Lord takes his 1d business back and think he's checked off to another he visited back in vintage [Music] by the right incomplete will be second down and goal he's a what voila don't volatile trouble being you can go up and down emotional emotionally happened two guys coach together one the newspapers didn't take too kindly to the you're going [Applause] they rub their defeated over sucking down [Music] [Applause] so get the car breaking tackles into the end zone motor starts long-running billion tonight and Denver's going to go out on top is it alright it's like we grew it up in late July when we started this whole thing off I think it really happened to break into was it was drawn up well the rotors Armstrong made great effort on the outside as Fox cover their pockets again yet keep this beet green effort Armstrong lot of guys that they're shot at him Hawkins miss lockness goalie fish [Music] it's good that Denver has retaken the lead here at Foxborough they need the Patriots 14 to 10 early here in the SEC in the third quarter we'll be back Trog pacing the Denver attack flips the Broncos off the part of the New England Patriots the brown or the wiggler that's the goal are predicted [Applause] [Music] Westbrook struggled out to the 22 yard line Brenna Lane will have their first 75 yards you mentioned for Armstrong just about double for 38 game by Ferguson the leading ground gainer both of them tough sledding tonight neither one big they both about the same size little over 60 all over 190 pounds apiece bird sleeves the Bostock for three in the seventh on Eddie Murray shoe run a hobo one welcome him back up with his whole lineup cut open the game security air [Applause] the 30-yard line of 8 will be sucking down into Larry Evans 56 defensively they are for dinner just to travel the long way of the mile-high City that's great fans out there surprising some of them didn't show up up here because maybe take the Polish tours through Vermont out there at a couple of ladies new controller [Music] [Applause] Vegas first down 34 yard line again Larry Evans number 56 with the initial hit didn't worry about a first down to England Sunday the game in perspective the curious and curiously conservative New England Costin they blew a potential opportunity in the first half and their initial series which resulted in the turnover mistake gave Denver its shot let's see if they can recapture them oh man [Applause] [Music] forty-four [Music] doesn't come back with the strain [Music] [Applause] about a yard and a half and again the flag is down it was Tom Jackson who read the screen beautifully for dinner slid over and got right in the middle of it manner pointing to Kevin Miller it's going to be against New England he's indicating it is himself that time they had Ferguson out in front he was going to be a lead blocker off the motion series and I think they just didn't get it off a little proper timing a freer education with the call the illegal shift by the offense two men moving at the same time penalty is declined it's second down absolutely we can only do that in Canada will be sucking down make it second down to 13 [Music] the girls doctor 49 Stanley market 86400 good okay good protection any overthrow of one printer [Music] to be a good girl but as Lily right was right on him I think Grogan overthrew that one if anything he says I'm gonna miss him long right he's right on his right hip pocket it's a very important series for the fact even though it's still relatively early there's so much time this was when New England wanted to reestablish the domination that they had shown throughout most of the second quarter especially units come on poison 1313 Andrew Johnson totally shocked over 22% back hippies here this bulb [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] coming bro three-man front line it really gets you in trouble and two schools of thought I would please don't give the quarterback much time five put some pressure on it as you pointed out he had great time that family never didn't get close to it and the defense that people just can't cover that loss particularly a guy like Stanley Morgan came into the night averaging little over 30 yards per reception seven substance at the end of the night before them we talked to tonight two key first down [Music] [Applause] a gain of seven it will be second and three knee right there defensively within her along with Randy Gradishar good job by kallu bouncing out to the outside there it's gonna close up for the mill town some room of the outside pick up a nice game that John Hannah is one of the great players in nature nobody fell little brother is growing up down there in Tampa Bay Charlie and learn it since they shifted him to the offense much better job [Applause] at the 45-yard line adventure Morgan touchdown brilliantly crude and the Greek feed of Morgan people Brogan's become a quarterback what we discussed that son he never you say a blow off the ball that way I love that shot because nobody appreciates it it's a guy like Morgan more than us a guy like Grogan it's to begin not to panic coverage you started off just right again he had great time to throw the ball you see Steve Foley fairly close but nobody can really say with Morgan if you give him that much yeah he's going to be the most every time that ball was beautifully thrown brought over here yes his fifth touchdown reception he's only clocked in over here have been turned into touchdown ball from Royale don't fit for the conversion as well we game please [Applause] well before the on the patriot again taking the lead on the priesthood seat from 45 yards out Steve Grogan my crew box sets out a kickoff the New England deep is Larry Brunson recently acquired by having a sovereign's with this kickoff for them and it's bobbled there my heart I'll up at the 15-yard line Weimer things fired up Bassel back later less a co-ed samman hi Stan would say his touchdowns of come from 68-67 40 yards 22 yards and this from 4:45 [Music] top yeah by three points - Rob Reider gender from 30 bringing the Broncos back the consistent with that Robin first the quarterback pudendal the Jenson he's piled up after a gain of the yard make gym dips 6-3 230 powder maybe Denver in 77 missed all the 78 season with an injury and came back strong with a 400-yard season last year [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Denson again and backed up at the 20-yard line we're not going to get your teen back gaining a couple a odds on first out of the cup or on second down you're playing the defensive unit gameness that was a little surprised at the statistics this weekend that these two club great 12th and 13th [Music] [Applause] down quick [Applause] he puts up for the past three magenta Vincent bowling forward he'll be short of the first down up to the 24 yard line and be fourth down and Denver will have to turn over that support referred to a game way November day 11 [Music] way back when they pulled the fake field goal and threw a pass and the Patriots and their fans are not disposed to forget it there's frustration rolling Jane Christian himself at the 38-yard [Music] [Applause] good field position okay flag is down and gain bobbles the ball is picked up by a Bronco well this is going to be a good I can only wait for this call comes out that's it Greg Graceland came up with it for Denver but a flag was down James he noted right up the middle on that low fighting getting up slowly he was very chinchilla see the flag go down that's where they usually think that's gonna be up [Applause] everyone's getting into this conference they all become lesbians that such a moment unnecessary roughness number 59 on the receivers illegal receiver downfield number 54 by the kicker this rock is guilty from New England Larry Evan for Denver don't you love his face visit all those things written a song wait Helen loves to beat to beat the Patriots because of course he has hope he said how often his answer the wine kicker is not a good fake bill go he said look is it pastime you know beauty was a great second half ballclub will get a shot of the receiver now for New England that's Mike Haynes this time this afternoon at a four o'clock and when he came in as a look he led the league in punt returns he has not been doing that much for the past couple years and all this saving it on their feet applauding the fact that Haynes is in the ballgame areas Chuck Sullivan the exec VP of the Patriots said bluntly we can't win without my cane when he should show holding in offsetting fouls will have it over again bowling game shaken up on that punt return so a pain that's great this time [Applause] I call for the first half that he's taken at the 37 yard line little risky my crayon again another discussion illegal receiver with the techno anyone would a lot of screaming and yelling where those coaches look at those kicking reels of this game it goes one that those were mistakes that you're not supposed to make at all you may make them in the early season but would you decline this penalty done I think I'd take a little kick it again two reasons there they've been the kicking themes out there they've had to run down the field fly one reason another reason that's particularly good and with these factors we Misha he's capable of doing some great things with that ball if he gets it so I think it's a good call if he's in shape well he's not tired that's the point another good point was that that kicking team with his tire 52 of the kill for town the Denver we'll move up to doing his 45 yard line as luke frustrated will be kicking away from about here seven or eight yard line [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] 5:33 we may be in the fourth quarter New England over Denver 1714 again a low kick the kind who can really run by [Applause] to the 47 field position in before was there defensively for the Denver Broncos well he had a good inauguration that Frank Dean did he really got sit there we'll be back in New England will be a good field position for game first town had to be a flag again Calhoun and again the flag goes down at Calhoun writes his way for about five or six yards down to the 41 yard line I think it was motion probably Frances illegal motion they move the back to the 48 yard line first down 15 5:17 remaining in the third quarter 13:14 frankly commotion sadaqa Vegas Ferguson Ferguson jet at midfield after a gain of a yard I'm one of her maids aside for Denver that should be a good game Brenda McNeil who played one last year any easier check it out of 13 well then [Music] Vegas Ferguson he was well covered by Randy Gradishar it'll be third down and 13 that was the second mistake he's made that past should not have been thrown look at that moon and when not in my end but hit a fall clear cool night here in New England just a few hours it how about moonlight in Vermont why not I was there to have rosy Griz long as you don't sing it oh come on Frank got wedges Vermont had a good time you make Willie Nelson sound like Mel Torme say Kentucky they're down 14 [Applause] once again fires for Francis in a defensive battle the winner he knocks it away he was held well the tallest role for Francis to make his move around there to get in there he definitely quacking around opinion there heck of a game and here's a nice replay I was a nice shot but on fourth down my COO box look up to New England [Music] 21:41 yard robach no Denver that would be the 14 we'll have a first contender yard line will be back four minutes and 14 seconds remaining in the third quarter at Foxborough Frank Gifford Howard Cosell Don Meredith cool night Susie Asti crowd the New England Patriots back out on top seesaw game Denver took the lead in the open after that leave then look at the football first down the Baltic Thrones winter when they are gone to the 25-yard line except for it will be something down and quick [Applause] there was a major train and I'm so football the last 24 hours Batman one of the best all-purpose packs in the National Football League sent by New Orleans to the San Diego charges the very dimension prank that the charges so desperately needed to be a superfood [Music] put them over the top there already for [Music] with the go-to console velkan Trini literally yard and another tough cookie named riemann flavor from tick tick he was the teammate of el campo he was another of those first-round draft choices super speed a tremendous player and a puncher if you ask a certain sports writer in Boston when they punched out and got fined for doing [Music] [Applause] apparently reportedly other [Applause] was under [Applause] [Music] to my ramen 35 out of the pocket he's taken [Music] they're the air butter the question pass situation disregard quarters around [Music] they was really good they read it on plastic was the guard pulling out in front he didn't follow that that came back out played in behind lassic all that series was the very important if they can finish can build the cushion mistrusted one fourth down for Denver and there roll em game at the 38 indicating the field position [Applause] message written by James at the 30 [Applause] [Music] 45-yard punt where our first clip appears they caught bill Matthews yo New England had a much better field position so their last series of downs and they didn't do much with it either I expected them not time to push it in and get another touchdown if they had that would really put Denver in the hole but being against New England [Music] yes Tony McGee last five years he's led New England in shocking quarterbacks pretty remarkable years during that period very pleasant guy just speaks it nice and easy and Philly goes in for the sack tipping during the run back 53 of the receivers it first and can build Matthews something pretty wiggling instead of having the ball New England they're 20 they have 202 remaining in the third quarter a three-point lead well wildly enthusiastic crowd here in Foxborough tonight drogon comes over the sidelines rain timeout and the crowd goes bananas he goes back into the game one on top 1714 but said I think goes back to that game a year ago and then reported on defeating England forty five to ten Goggan clips in the rollout and widely second down and 15 did that applause turn the booze and would play one more fan come on he's selling votes more the homebound quarterback in the league right now the folks in here like it or not we've had some hot and cold a now preseason game against the cold in people's face scream to Cavanaugh but which the season has started as I said new quarterback to the right in motion sucking down 15 over the middle incomplete for Morgan ball was thrown well older and card catchable ball from beer a dead lucky then it wasn't picked off and older energy loosely picked off an awful lot then first enough up to this 16 yes another look John now let's just see I don't know it appears that he said he got a little pressure threw the ball pretty well that fall was imminent like ketchup eminently catchable and it really was lucky that the ball was i intercepted bounced up

manner who came in and I last year for Lyle Alzado is not the pass rusher but Lyle Alzado is very strong against a run but what Denver has lacked has been that one line been out of the three four that they say and most of the time that can really put the pressure on the opposition when they pass again Franco he at four years in the league is still a fairly inexperienced guy he got some good experience last year got the Prudential the developer good budget near the third quarter Elaine 117 Denver [Music] it's a cool crisp fall evening here in New England the Patriots are on top of the Denver Broncos as we begin the fourth quarter 17 to 14 pages have the football ball of the 29 yard line their own 29 second down at 11 [Applause] against a very stubborn Denver defense Jackson emotion wasn't forced out of the pocket I present matter down the sideline does Logan he's Pearlman at the 35-yard line Rulon Jones the rookie from Utah State yes they're just some instinct that you just have a hard time getting rid of he just doesn't come without a fan says it picked up about six yards on that a dipped in another flag down the colonists that's a big break put the time I figure just hold on Rulon Jones Franks they were counting on him to provide the pass rush left vacant by the departure of Alzado but he hasn't done it yet Milan Jones coming as Denver's first tick of the second round they lost their first pick requiring met Robinson gave up a first and a second four rather their quarterback Frank Robinson to be an automatic first accompanying this pedal eight moving by the defense number 24 we're getting to holding the first time is what the 40-yard line is to look at the third quarter step now the whole edge is in quantify / Robin that's the edge in total the audits because in Russian then was still least I'm a possession New England control blingin with the football dinner own 40-yard line they have a 17 to 14 lead on for six yards through the 26 yard line it'll be sucking in port right some manner over there defensively for Denver that's Miller moving to the Broncos in 77 he's had him in the playoffs each to the previous three years they had only had Ceaser's in the previous 17 years he's done a superb job ii employ [Applause] host to the first down at midfield but they're by Randy Gradishar good Ricky the clip right there all right well you can do that and rest the Ferguson all have partisan care the balls how do you need that balance for me he is really really came to life Calhoun last week against Seattle I like the way uses Foreman to second and wrong and

number 56 that man just stepped in playing good father that he's been around the ball fought a borniche a curse there 79 in front of him he went with us earlier Joe Rizzo the veteran inside linebacker for Denver went out of the lineup in the second quarter and first Bob twinsen their outstanding outside linebacker will not be available until after tonight's game having been on the injured reserve he never got a half a yard will be second down at nine the ball just inside Denver territory okay without the Calhoun [Applause] the 42 yard line the first time by a couple Calhoun is doing everything the Sam Cunningham did for the Patriots over the last few years he's catching the ball he's running it well the blocker but Cunningham is they want to trade Sam BAM but they have been able to get what they think they deserve to get for a player of Sam banned statue what puzzled Kilroy by the way as the other holdout Tom Owen the kids at home in Wichita a most respectable quarterback as you know Gifford Kilroy makes the point how could nobody want Tom Owen their starting quarterbacks without his background in the lake Stanley Morgan being carried off the field he had that's a kind of lie pattern all the way downfield they didn't even see anything occur down there and he's being assisted from the field line will attempt to get a report from the sidelines as quickly as we can they have twisted it going down our friend I live fiercely cramping both the calves of his leg that can really be painful it should go away after welcome tear down the body yard for the picture [Music] they get Ferguson total disregard to the body hurdles he's close to the earth down he got it Vegas Ferguson the rookie number one draft pick Berto again picks up the first down Morgan suffered friend I made the point done he said how could nobody want Owen who was having accomplished record he's improved himself and he said look at Green Bay picking up the talk away who did not with the cotton bucko may have worn too much first him ten broken quickly to the air the first down inside terrific throw Frank as was the one the Calhoun is the player two before that those are those clothes line throws that they say the quarterback you've got to be able to throw this one this is that better know very few ripples of that ball and write all the money back to Jackson the other point done they they've taken five minutes thus far in this drive Silva Pat even though there is still 12 minutes and 14 seconds remaining by using the clock broken now 17 of 23 210 yards a touchdown one interception the Patriots

tonight's game it gets a lot of fitness because frankly they don't like to go over against Louie ride on the other side of the Denver defense Tulane as a way of producing sleepers in the pro ranks I remember a very low round draft choice from Tulane by the giant the kid named Bobby Duan and that became that man became an all-purpose player of immense value yeah one of the tough ones you'll ever meet third down and nine [Applause] they mentor Stanley Morgan when the children suffered cramps in both legs he should be back [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Oh [Music] same referee alright he do not tell me there Mary Evans 56 for Denver we were 36 on TV thank you for ginger number 36 watching Frances I made three player moves off the line that you'll see you cannot touch that receiver after he

good time and time again first and gold Megan Ferguson [Music] Randy Gradishar made to stop not until Ferguson but move down inside the 2 yard line New England with 1103 in the box moving here in the fourth quarter then they're late Ferguson now 47 yards on 16 wake up Carrie [Applause] [Music] Furguson just to call again full console Tony gets inside the one latimer in there on that on Earhart I think you're right they should be using leather no more Frank we really can't go against the success this man is bluffing different first year there to the Super Bowl while the Western Division of the AFC or the wild side third down goal buzzer - the most toxic water then we won't get any he had Hasselbeck though this is a very bad three [Music] not guns John Smith there was a lost of the yard yard and a half Matt Cavanaugh will hold for John Smith first and goal at the five has to settle [Music] 29-yard attempt by John to the upright together 19 you're out of dip notice how carefully frank says what appears to be a field goal attempt he said it because Cavanaugh was the holder and Cavanaugh of course is a fine young laudable the Denver is still within a touchdown and a conversion will kick off for New England Larry Prunty is deep for Denver [Music] look the realize they hit the West and out to the 25-yard line goes Larry Brunson young man who led the league a year ago with hopefully 17 kickoff return for the 26 yard average accepted past week the Dave Preston but on the injured reserve West Ford Indra Miller stays with the kid with number 17 Matt Robinson one might have expected that insurance to the bedrock [Music] first intent member of a partisan New England or design car see out to the 29 yard line rod children Larry McGrew the rookie from USC and there defensively for New England while that might be construed as acceptable yardage on first down it wasn't really not at this stage of the game in fact I don't think it's really even four yards tomorrow just about second down and six [Music] [Applause] [Music] even though his emotional [Applause] [Music] body of Steve Nelson Julius Adams was there to finish it off maybe the line of scrimmage would be lost to the yard Steve Nelson he is really the leader this defensive unit give credit to the birds of Gaul Weaver and his whole team because they're hanging in there name the game on the Yankees or Idol tonight the magic number remains that three but there are the sin and no quick reliever laughs in the play of the yard down in seven the ball at the 27 yard line knows it's been mostly [Music] products into the air without it a flat that will be sort of a first down and taken by Jim Jensen it will be fourth down and unable to go over there for you McGrew out there very sensible very bad theory sandy you can't get back in the game that why are you playing the defensive units game when you've got people are we on it can exert down get the idea when you ladies only throw in eight or nine passes tonight Denver you get the idea they certainly came here the attention they have been quite a successful is plan but I would think that that what made ever can do is more the role outside faster get the outside firstly hips it for Denver Rowland James forced back to 28 yard line to take the ball and filled at the 35 yard line the New England once again will be in good field position 40-yard punt by press reach who has not been booming him out of the stadium tonight Miami means 749 now remaining in the state the Patriots over Denver 2014 there exactly according the crowd no serious guys he says effective of the huddle New England has the football they have a 17-14 lead amantha first inch in near their own 35-yard [Applause] [Music] who in the 30 yard for diversion [Applause] it's the first round that's the key point last Drive even though they used up 7 minutes and 24 seconds on the clock if they can do similarly here they've clinched the concept Denver very conservative in there [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] over the left side and Ferguson for about two maybe three it'll be second down eight and the seconds continue to tick off the clock the 48 yard line of the Broncos what the Pats have to remember is they can't make a mistake the way Denver's been in those three straight playoffs three straight is in okay [Applause] [Music] lively tubers pretty well and dr. cook to the left the game [Music] first round he'll have it at the 40-yard line they can thereby Willems own I look at them Utah State but again we go over first down inside six minutes in the second we're kicking off a few light a New England 51 degrees at kickoff time but not that soul Oh beautiful he's a little extreme I thought her eyes were really nice on Lattimer comes in defensively the other point where our Coast the other point we should have made Frank Denver Zoey's had one great strength which they faced when they held the past to appeal go short yardage be fair [Music] [Applause] again [Applause] another five yards and you can see where Denver is really missing Joe Rizzo who was hurt earlier in tonight's game and Bob puts them and you play a three-four defense you have to have active linebackers that can step in and fill those holes stop the running game down to England is just pounding and grinding away on the ground and grinding away on the clock [Music] [Applause] that sort of the 35-yard [Music] [Applause] Furguson at the 28 yard line moving out by Lily right stopping the clock with 428 3 million in the game good shot that time Franco hood Ferguson calling those blockers he thought he was he sure not dumb he knows which where to stay right behind him watching when he comes around the corner here dr. front see Hannah cut off there there's a little movie outside Louie right head into the inside he cut that he six seven four yards on the outside [Music] it is shown that today [Music] Vegas Ferguson for motor day Jesus down inside the 25-yard line he picks up three will be second and seven Randy Gradishar you want balance in the yeah so close to balance Pollak that that is good it's a mixing up I really think that that's what Denver thought they could be I think they felt they can come in here and what [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] back to the inside getting down close to the 20 market at the 21 it'll be third down and three very early for Denver and looking forward Tim has really had a tough opening schedule next Sunday they go out to play in Cleveland and Cleveland has it back together again play their first divisional opponents against the jet coaster that it's turbo but by the Chase Stadium in New York all kind of [Music] a female big play for gender third down a three they have to get the football by looking lays on the ground perfectly boss solar hit my Louie right but he's close to another doing one first out may not have Guttman well there they are working on that clock again they got this

from the eyes of my husband we'll cover from the endzone [Music] [Applause] I'm fed up of town looking for the way [Applause] opening out of the 20 yard line and gets forward to the 27 yard line mm to three seconds now on the clock in Denver down by nine with the precious wisdom of 20/20 hindsight that can now be sent that played all night for a fumble they are going to open up right now his attempt at seven complete hope what yields Perseids a completion we watch them Watson comes in pudendal number 81 [Applause] put it in the air Jensen Jensen picks it out to the 34-yard line that will be second down and four wonder what prey gets think you're steamed veteran on the sidelines usually is brought in in situations now ever the two-minute period is not never there his strongest suit and we'll be back just in a moment and see if ever sees me faith who's ran a minute in 56 seconds remaining in the game in Foxborough New England looking awfully good tonight [Applause] the defense is not playing a couple of key elements [Applause] [Music] and kept it down a free Robinson to the air that's the dump it off to Jensen Jensen slips the tackle moves out to a first down at the 38 yard Richard Bishop just activated this afternoon in there on the stop for New England the hurry-up offense now in the part of Denver is a second sick away [Applause] [Music] those would all began tojust then for both his wife to the 40-yard line the second down and eight Frank as the game winds down this is important enough to bring up the Cubs have scored two runs in the top of the 15th they leave the fill five to three builds it back it's the film blue the xposed lead by a game in a hat Denver stops the clock with 1:27 remaining in the game and a reminder coming up on the west coast immediately following the telecast that's incredible really what is coming up with the West Coast that is incredible Robinson over to the sidelines can bring their with coaching the SAP the new update just go new quarterback who is devised a very special passing attack but did not manifest itself tonight right Robinson of course came to the Broncos an offseason trade with the Jets they gave up the first of the second round draft pick for Robinson it really was initiated last week for the San Diego Chargers they kicked off for they brought in Drake Martin he was respectable that time the charges to a child up 24 points in the second quarter called all over Craig and they took off to a hippie yeah Western Division they AFP [Applause] [Music] second dominate who turn up [Music] [Applause] [Music] that's what we'll do Robbins who's giving a difficult news of course the defensive line knows that faces what they're going to do is pass before they're giving those tackle Claudie Minard stuttered some troubles up they are they're coming out of them [Music] [Applause] [Music] what so [Music] one particular game leaving the Jets at Mile High Stadium 28:57 match consistently double zone giving Wesley water the Jets came back in one match game Miller wanted he's got him Denver uses another timeout and the New England Patriots linemen are all a hugging Richard Bishop out on the field it's so much more effective when you get that second guy thank God the middle of course you got ray Hamelin 71 but you let Bishop come in to the other side that's an awful lot to handle in the middle as we mentioned earlier yet oh the outside guys were doing their job so then you go from the inside the outside there's no pocket for that quarterback to step up in once again supposedly Robinson's the major ability and Isabel Danis travel and be able to throw on the run if things there do they not put that particular style of factoring in there often that happens to be a truly make the Meredith thank you so the story of the diminution of Robinson's death on the way they usually have been privileged will 1:12 remaining and then Birkenstock o'clock one more time right now they're looking over a fourth down and 24 [Applause] during the 1aqaq applause all of the dancers out of trouble hangs one up the gonna be looking for a foul he gets the interception kicked off there by he came up a year ago Carolina that should be it oh no two on the clock go in and out of the football again that meant Robertson having a very tough night against a very stingy New England defense we'll be back in a moment [Music] I wish we could come back earlier now but every times we've been away Harold's actions been out there exhorting these bands they're all up on their feet and he's leading the cheering steps back in him out all the 13-year veteran he's out sound like The Music Man with trombone killing off its if you're wondering what that is it all hunkered up in there on first down that's one time out I'll probably use it material they stop the clock for 57 seconds Steve Grogan will move over to the sidelines I say this Frank I don't know how you feel about it I think New England has just tremendous personnel and though they've won this game doneita gay hi guys I still don't think they've played a really stiff equality of that first in it yes agree would have been I have a feeling that this might be the year they will this young man walking back into the huddle has really got himself off to a good start heat it was a 49% pastor a year ago erratic sometimes brilliant by the time he would make the mistake and he tried to do things that no one can really do look at those claps for the night Sunday the hi Ron I don't blame you for being happy he keeps that kind of play going they could better believe it's going to help the entire ball clubs all the way they've got names that Bridget back while they could do this honey air before brilliant Sam setting out these are the cause of the ball and the seconds will tick down they'll need to run one more play and this one was going to the history book and New England will go three and one a game behind Buffalo in their division Denver will drop well behind San Diego which is undefeated they will be one and three and there is an owner who has struggled with his franchise over the years anyways Billy Sullivan I said yeah he did in 1974 he lost control of a franchise and with it went so much of his wife they got control back with Sullivan he went to the Fairbanks episode he's a fine man and that will be the final play and then we'll win this football game defeating Denver avenging a defeat of a year ago at the hands of Denver in Denver 45 to 10 congratulations be that ain't about on the field once again our final score to England 23 Denver 14
