This was another fun play and a drive killer for the Chicago Bears, who just couldn’t stop the Broncos’ defensive pressure all night. With all new personnel in for sack #3, you’ll see the start at around 0:26 where there are six defenders surrounding the line of scrimmage, one of which is safety Shiloh Keo.

Keo, who is suspended the first two games of the season, does a little stunt around the guard and comes with a rush up the middle that forces Brian Hoyer to adjust his plans, and unfortunately for Hoyer, rookie free agent Vontarrius Dora is waiting.

Dora doesn’t have to do anything spectacular here, he just keeps working up the field and when Hoyer tries to break away from the pocket, Dora makes him pay.

It’s another example of great design by Wade Phillips.

Next: Sack #4
