Comment on Broncos report card: From slow start to domination, Denver’s beatdown of Raiders featured all three phases

Stat line: 19 for 27, 206 passing yards, two touchdowns; five carries, 13 yards and a TD Highlight: Nix hit a different gear in the fourth quarter, leading two touchdown drives. Nix punctuated an 8-play, 58-yard scoring drive with a 1-yard rushing touchdown. With under nine minutes to go in regulation, Nix completed a 24-yard pass near the sideline to wideout Courtland Sutton, then found Josh Reynolds in the back of the end zone for a 9-yard score.

OFFENSE — A- The Broncos offense got off to a really rough start but found its stride in the second half. At halftime, Denver had 125 yards, seven first downs and was 1 of 6 on third downs. By the time Bo Nix hit Josh Reynolds for a touchdown and a 34-10 lead midway through the fourth quarter, Denver had 288 yards of offense and had completely taken over the game.

The ring fit a hand full of Crushed fingers perfectly. “I think I’m going to have to get put it on the scale to see how much it weighs,” ex-Broncos linebacker Randy Gradishar, the heart and soul of Denver’s “Orange Crush” defense, said Sunday at Empower Field as he flashed his spanking-new Pro Football Hall of Fame ring.

Initial thoughts from the Broncos’ 34-18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5 at Empower Field at Mile High: Talk your talk, Bo: A year ago, Russell Wilson just took it. Sean Payton was in his ear, chewing him out on prime-time national TV in Detroit, and the then-Broncos quarterback said virtually nothing.

A black bear and three cubs broke into a Lake City home and attacked a 74-year-old man on Thursday, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife. The mama bear and her cubs pawed open a partially cracked sliding glass door and entered the home around 8:30 p.m. Thursday, causing a loud crash that startled the people inside, CPW officials said in a news release. The man grabbed a chair from his kitchen and attempted to direct the adult bear back out the door, but the bear charged him and knocked him into a wall, CPW officials said. “It’s certainly lucky we didn’t have a fatality, because it was close,” CPW wildlife officer Lucas Martin said in the release. CPW officials said the bear repeatedly swiped at the man, injuring his head, neck, arms, lower abdomen, shoulder and calf.
