ABLE TO COMPLETE. TRAUTMAN. IT'S A FIRST DOWN FOR THE BRONCOS. RYAN: THIS IS WHAT WE CALL PLAY-ACTION PASS. THE OFFENSIVE LINE IS GOING TO SOUND LIKE IT'S A RUN PLAY WHICH STEVE: FIRST DOWN AND 10. INTO GREEN BAY TERRITORY. TAKES THE SNAP. ABLE TO COMPLETE TIM PA TREK. LET'S WATCH PATRICK. MCLAUGHLIN HAD AN EXCELLENT FIRST GAME. FRANKLIN HE'S BEEN OPEN OR BE A TARGET A COUPLE MORE TIMES TO WANT. STEVE: BR BROCK IS IN THERE NOW. DROPPED BY WILSON. BO NIX MOVING THE OFFENSE. SOMETHING YOU'LL NEED IN THE NFL. N NFL. OUT OF THE BACKFIELD IS TAKEN DOWN AT THE 18-YARD LINE. SO PLAYERS TO WATCH ON THE STANCE. COME ON. STEVE: IT'S A 37-YARD FIELD GOAL ATEMPT FOR WILL LUTZ. AND HE SNEAKS IT THROUGH THE LEFT UPRIGHT.

TIGHT END GOES IN MOTION. HERE'S CLIFFORD THROWING OUT TO ANOTHER TIGHT END. IT'S BEN SIMS. SIMS ABLE TO MAKE THE CATCH FOR 10. THE ONLY THING THAT'S KIND OF CREPT UP HERE FOR THE BRONCOS IN IT WILL BE GRIFFIN OR BARTON WHO JOIN HIM? >> THIRD AND 17. OUT OF THE GUT. TRYING TO SET UP THE SCREEN TO WILSON. MAKES THE FIRST MAN MISS. AND WE'LL GET SOME OF THE YARDAGE BACK. OUT BEYOND THE 45 -- IT'S GOING TO BRING UP THE FOURTH DOWN. A PICK UP OF 10 ON THE PLAY. >> THAT'S TWO STOPS BY THE BRONCOS' DEFENSE. SO THEY ARE USING THE COACHING THAT BO NIX WAS THE GUY THEY WANTED ALL ALONG AND THE PRIVATE WORKOUT ON MARCH 18, LOTS OF LAYERS TO THAT STORY THAT WE WILL GET INTO ON FIRST DOWN AND 10 FOR 20. PITCH TO WILLIAMS STRAIGHT AHEAD. SEAN PAYTON SAID HE GAVE HIM A FROM THE ADVERSITY HE FACED IN COLLEGE, LEAVING AUBURN, GOING TO OREGON, LEARNING A PLAYBOOK AND DOMINATING ONCE HE LEARNED IT. >> THE FULLBACK EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, PICK UP THE THREE AND SHOULD HAVE FIRST DOWN YARDAGE. SCOTTY GANGE FOR MORE. MUCH SECURE IN BO NIX BEING HIS QUARTERBACK AT THAT MOMENT. >> IN ALL THESE INTERVIEWS AND PRIVATE WORKOUT, YOU ARE SORT OF EXPECTING THE UNEXPECTED. WILLIAMS OUT OF THE BACKFIELD. ANOTHER FIRST DOWN. THE DENVER OFFENSE MOVING JUST SHY OF MIDFIELD BUT YOU ARE NOT EXPECTING THAT QUESTION THAT THE HEAD COACH IS GOING TO CHECK YOUR BACKPACK. THAT GREAT AT OUR JOB. STEVE: GREEN BAY ACROSS THE MIND OF SCRIMMAGE. ANOTHER FIRST DOWN. HOW ABOUT THE BRONCOS MIXING THE PASS WITH THE RUN HERE? RYAN: HOLDS UP FOR THE THIRD AND NINE AND THEN IT GETS YOU ANOTHER FIRST DOWN AND THIS STEVE: EVERYBODY WANTS BRONCOS/CARDINALS NEXT WEEK AND YOU WILL GET THEM. LITTLE PUMP.

NICK IS IN THE BRONCOS OFFENSE AND THEY ARE HUMMING. THE NFL. IT LOOKED LIKE HE HAD A SHOT AT THE END ZONE, BUT WAS STOPPED QUICKLY. STEVE: CAUGHT FOR THE TOUCHDOWN. TIM PATRICK WILL ENJOY THIS ONE AT HOME. NEXT TO PATRICK, THAT IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD START GETTING USED TO AS WELL. RYAN: HERE'S IS A QUICK COUNT, BACK ON THE BALL. STEVE: THIRD DOWN AND EIGHT. RYAN: RIGHT THERE. STEVE: CLIFFORD WILL ROLL AWAY. CANNOT GET AWAY FROM HIM. DROPPED BY ZACH ALLEN FOR A 12 YARD SACK. IT IS ALL GOING DENVER'S WAY HERE SO FAR TONIGHT. RYAN: YOU CANNOT TALK TO AN RECEIVERS THE PACKERS WILL KEEP. SECOND DOWN AND 10. HERE IS MERRIWEATHER. HE DID NOT GET A CHANCE LAST WEEK. HERE IS THE FIRST PUNT AND IT BOUNCES AND IT WILL ROLL DOWN INSIDE THE FIVE AND TOUCH THE WHITE. WHAT A PUNT FOR RILEY DIXON. 46 AND A BEAUTY. WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK. LUTHER. I HAD TO PRACTICE, JONAH, JONAH. STEVE: PACKERS ON IT, BACKED UP DEEP INSIDE THE FIVE. HANDOFF TO WILSON. HE IS TRIPPED UP. PICK. STEVE: IF HE CAN STAY HEALTHY, IT WOULD BE SOMETHING. SECOND DOWN AND EIGHT. MET HIM ON THE BACKFIELD THAT TIME. MERRIWEATHER, NOTHING DOING. IT IS NIK BONITTO AGAIN. LOSS OF TWO ON THE PLAY AS NIK SOMETHING CALLED FINANCIAL LITERACY. STEVE: THIRD AND 10, CLIFFORD TRIED TO RUN FOR IT. HE HAS GOT IT. ABLE TO GET THE FIRST DOWN AND PICK UP OF 11 ON THE PLAY AND RAN AWAY FROM JL SKINNER. RYAN: SEAN CLIFFORD HAD A COUPLE NUMBER 47 FOR THE BRONCOS. THE BRONCOS HAVE TWO TIMEOUTS LEFT. CLIFFORD OUT. BRONCOS RUSHING FOR IT. CLIFFORD THROWS OFF HIS BACK FOOT AND IT IS INTERCEPTED. PICKED OFF THE SIDELINE. SMITH TRYING TO STAY IN BOUNDS THEN HE IS BROUGHT DOWN. CONSECUTIVE WEEKS FOR SMITH WITH AN INTERCEPTION. AND WE WERE BOTH IMPRESSED WITH HIS ABILITY TO GET THAT PICKED LAST WEEK, SHOWING THE BALL SKILLS AGAIN. STEVE: A FRISBEE OR A BALLOON. USE THE BALL CARRIER. HE STEPS OUT RUNNING ROOM. INTO THE END ZONE. HE WALKS SIX AND IT IS A TOUCHDOWN FOR HIM. RYAN: WHAT A PLAY TO END THE HALF. STEVE: STIDHAM UNDER PRESSURE, AND IT WILL BE SWALLOWED UP AND TAKEN DOWN. DROPPED THEREBY BRENTON COX JR., SECOND-YEAR PLAYER OUT OF FLORIDA. STEVE: WIPES OUT WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A 28 YARD GAIN. FIRST AND 25. AND IT IS A FLY BALL TO CENTER FIELD AND IT IS INTERCEPTED. POPPED UP INTO THE AIR AND PICKED OFF BY KRISTIAN WELCH. 50 YEAR PLAYER OUT OF IOWA. AND A TURNOVER BY STIDHAM AND FIRST PLAY. PACKERS TAKING OVER IN DENVER TERRITORY, WITH MICHAEL PRATT, THE QUARTERBACK, THROWING ON THE RUN. AND GOOD DEFENSE RIGHT THERE ON BUFF FORCED OUT OF BOUNDS BY JL SKINNER. MIKE: JL SKINNER I HAVE. THE PACKERS, TRYING TO GET ON THE SCOREBOARD HERE TONIGHT. HERE IS PRATT TO THROW. IT SAILS THROUGH THE HANDS OF HIS INTENDED TARGET. AND FOR THE SECOND TIME TONIGHT, THE BRONCOS DEFENSE TURNED THE PACKERS OFFENSE OVER ON DOWNS. WE TOUCHED ON A COUPLE THIRD DOWN AND 3. MICHAEL PRATT, FOUR YEAR STARTER AT TULANE. TAKEN DOWN, AND AT BALL COMES OUT AS WELL. PRATT IS SACKED. IT LOOKED LIKE JONAH ELLISS MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN THERE FIRST. DENVER SAYS THEY HAVE THE FOOTBALL TOO. AND THEY DO. THE BRONCOS TURN THE PACKERS OVER AGAIN. RYAN: WHAT A PLAY. IT IS GOING TO COME OFF THE RYAN: I LOVE GIVING WRITER'S GRIEF. I LOVE COMING UP BEHIND THEM WHEN THEY ARE TYPING THEIR STORIES AND TAPPING THEIR KEYPAD. IT IS TOUGH WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO STOP YOU FROM DOING YOUR JOB. STEVE: THAT IS OUT OF THE HOLD OF TRENTON GILL AND THE BRONCOS OFF THE TURNOVER AT TO THEIR HANDOFF TO WILSON. HE IS TRIPPED UP AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. SECOND AND 14 NOW. BADIE ALONE IN THE BACKFIELD. ZACH WANTS TO THROW IT, AND TAKEN DOWN. DROPPED FOR A SAFETY IN THE END ZONE. DROPPED BY ZACH MORTON, FIRST YEAR PLAYER OUT OF AKRON. AND THAT IS HOW THE PACKERS GET HAND OFF EMANUEL WILSON ABLE TO BREAK THROUGH THE FIRST SET OF BRONCOS DEFENDERS AND INTO DENVER TERRITORY AT THE BRONCO 45. ABRAMS BROUGHT HIM DOWN AFTER A GAIN OF 15. THAT WILL TAKE US TO THE END OF THE THIRD QUARTER. IN AND OUT EVERY PLAY, SUBBING IN. STEVE: RUNNING OUT TO THE SIDELINE. THIRD DOWN AND 5. LOOKING TO THE RIGHT AND THROWING TO TRAFFIC. IT IS INCOMPLETE. AND IT GOES INCOMPLETE. A GOOD THING. RYAN: MULTIPART -- MULTIPLE TURNOVERS BY THE DEFENSE. STEVE: HE IS DROPPED. HE IS SACKED OUT AT THE 31 YARD LINE. STEVE: SECOND DOWN AND NINE. AGAIN, MCCRARY. THE BRONCOS IMMEDIATELY SIGNAL THEY HAVE IT. TRAVE ON SMITH POINTING IN THE DIRECTION OF THE BRONCOS. A GAIN OF FIVE. RYAN: LET'S GIVE A LITTLE LOVE TO GLOVER. YOU WAS A -- YOU WILL SEE A LOT OF ATTENTION AT THE WAIVER WIRE TO PICK UP QUARTERBACKS. STEVE: NOT AN ISSUE HERE! TYLER BADIE INTO THE END ZONE FROM EIGHT YARDS AWAY AND THE BRONCOS TACK ON ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN. RYAN: A PHENOMENAL PLAY CALL AND HE HAS HAD FANTASTIC ACCURACY. HE IS ONLY CONFIRMING THE EXPECTATIONS YOU TEND EVERY OPPORTUNITY. STEVE: THE HANDOFF TO BLAKE WATSON. HE WILL STAY IN BALANCE. AS WE LOOK AT SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FROM BO NIX TONIGHT. LET'S JUST SAY HE DOES EVERYTHING. NATE MCCRARY -- AND AGAIN IT WILL BE ALL SMILES AND OPTIMISM HERE IN DENVER AGAIN. THEY PUT 34 UP LAST WEEK AND 27 THIS WEEK AND THEY BLOW OUT THE PACKERS. RYAN: ONLY THE SECOND TIME IN
