BALTIMORE (AP) — The Denver Broncos had a lot of things stacked against them in their quest to open the season 3-0.They were coming across the country to play a tough Baltimore Ravens team bent on making amends for a blowout loss in Cincinnati last week. To make the task even more challenging Womens Courtland Sutton Jersey , the Broncos were short-handed in the defensive backfield, even before losing cornerback Tremaine Brock to a groin injury in the first quarter on Sunday.Then, another setback: With Denver down 17-14 in the second quarter, rookie running back Phillip Lindsay was ejected for throwing a punch in a scrum following a fumble.All that, along with a boatload of penalties, were too much to handle in a 27-14 defeat.“We just got to play better,” linebacker Von Miller said. “They got a great team, but there were moments in there where we could have had the game. When you go on the road and play a great team, you got to capitalize. You’ve got to put the ball in, you’ve got to get off the field on third down, you’ve got to do all of those things just to have a chance to win.“We didn’t do any of that stuff and we still had a shot to win until late in the game.”Denver (2-1) took a 14-7 lead in the first quarter. Then, it all fell apart.The Broncos failed to score over the final 52 minutes, Miller went the entire afternoon without a sack and Denver racked up 13 penalties for 120 yards.“We hurt ourselves with penalties,” Broncos running back Devontae Booker said. “We can’t do that when we come into a hostile environment. It’s something we need to learn from.”Case Keenum went 22 for 34 for 192 yards, but he threw an interception and was sacked three times.Twice in the fourth quarter, he moved the Broncos into the red zone. An interception ended the first foray, and a fourth-down incompletion from the Baltimore 11 with three minutes left was his final pass.“I’ve got to do a better job at getting the ball out at the correct time and to the correct receivers,” Keenum said. “It was a lot of things for us today. I missed some guys when they were open, and it seems to me we had a lot of tipped balls.”Well, seems as if both sides of the ball have a lot to work on this week before the Kansas City Chiefs come to Denver next Monday night for an AFC West showdown.“We made too many mistakes and had too many penalties Womens Von Miller Jersey ,” Miller lamented. “When we practice, we don’t have all those penalties. We have to clean that up.” Andy Janovich won't be getting sleek new wheels after signing a three-year extension with the Denver Broncos on Friday worth $5.7 million."No, I'll probably hang on to that for a while," Janovich said of "Old Blue ," his beat-up 20-year-old Dodge pickup truck with the cracked windshield that he bought second hand back in college so he could haul around his mower.The jalopy stands out among the high-end sports cars and tricked-out four-wheelers that fill the parking lot adjacent to the Broncos practice fields.Janovich is the Broncos' jalopy, a thrifty, reliable helmet-busting no-frills fullback on a roster of sculpted physiques and finely tuned speedsters."Jano's good at his position, great guy, great type of guy you want on your team," coach Vic Fangio said.And he's the perfect fit for Rich Scangarello's run-based offensive scheme because he can block, catch, run and even play tight end, Fangio added.In a statement, general manager John Elway said, "Andy has developed into one of the best fullbacks in the league. He's exactly what you look for in a fullback — tough, reliable and a versatile part of not only the offense but also our special teams. It's nice to see how Andy's hard work has paid off."The fourth-year pro from Nebraska is making $720,000 this season in the final year of his rookie contract as a sixth-round draft pick. He's the first member of the Broncos' 2016 draft class to sign a second contract.Janovich missed the first three games this season after tearing a pectoral muscle in August, which put contract negotiations on hold.Those talks picked back up upon Janovich's return to action two weeks ago."John said, 'Let's do it by Friday,'" Janovich said of Elway. "And I was like https://www.broncoslockerroom.com/authentic-von-miller-jersey , 'All right. That works for me."Janovich jumped at the offer that makes him one of the highest-paid fullbacks in football rather than test free agency next spring."I just wanted to stay here," Janovich said. "I think that would be silly to turn that down, try to be greedy, go to free agency and just get a little bit more."Janovich said he also sees a rebound coming for a franchise that has won just 18 of its last 50 games."You see it every week, I mean we're this close," Janovich said, pinching his thumb and index finger an inch apart. "And there hasn't been a defense that we haven't been able to drive the ball on. And you know, third, fourth quarter, we kind of come to a standstill. So, when we get that figured out, we're going to score more and more points. That's going to be awesome."Behind Janovich's blocking last season, offensive rookie to make the Pro Bowl.Janovich has scored three TDs himself in his career, two rushing and one receiving. He's also recorded a team-high 16 special teams tackles. Former Broncos special teams coach Brock Olivo once offered, "If we had 22 Janos, we'd be all right."Janovich walked on at Nebraska and in his spare time worked construction and mowed lawns to pay for college as one of nine children in his family.His position is a dying breed in today's NFL that's increasingly populated by players coming out of college football's "Air Raid" and RPO offenses that have left "3-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust" well, in the dust."I just run into people," Janovich said. "It's pretty simple."Follow Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: twitter.com/arniestapleton
