Richter said:Forced 3 turnovers? One great pick by Champ Bailey, a pick on a desperation heave that should have resulted in pass interference, one flat out muffed punt, one dropped ball in traffic by Faulk and one ball squirting out by Hobbs when he gets hit by a kicker. Sounds more like 1.5, 2 tops that they forced. Way too many of the turnovers were flat out concentration lapses, not some great play by the Denver defense.
So you're not giving Denver credit for the fumbles by Hobbs and Faulk ? Let's look at each turnover:
1. Faulk's fumle - the ball did not come out by itself, Courtney Brown's hit had a lot to do with it.
2. Hobb's fumble - Sauerbrun's hit on the arm & ball knocked it out, it did not squirt out by accident.
3. Brady's int - great play by Bailey, bad play by Brady. Nothing to discuss
4. Brown's muffed punt return - this is the only real unforced TO as far as I'm concerned
5. Brady's 2nd int - desperate throw into triple coverage. I chalked it up to an unforced turnover because of circumstances. Did not see any interference on this play
Look, I'm as disappointed and bitter as everyone here about the loss, but to say Denver's D & special teams didn't earn that victory is ridiculous.
