Week 4: vs. Minnesota Vikings
This game was when the Broncos Fanzone articles started. For the first one, I interviewed Julie Dixon. She and I would have many discussions throughout the season. So, she gives her insights on this game.
Favorite Moment:
“My favorite moment would be the end when T.J. Ward strip sacked Teddy Bridgewater. That was the jump up and down, fist pump, do a little dance, one for the memory bank moment.”
MVP from Vikings Game:
“I have dual MVP’s from the game. One from the offense and defense. For the defense, I have to go with Demarcus Ware. He was a mosquito throughout the game, despite not having a sack in the game. But he buzzed around Bridgewater like a mosquito.”
“For the offense, Ronnie Hillman had a great game, churning out yards(103 yards on 11 carries) and a huge touchdown run.”
I agree Julie. She also points out that the only touchdown pass Manning had at home was in this game, where he connected with Owen Daniels. Not a great stat, but something worth noting. Julie got this little series of articles started.
