He completed 22 of 33 passes for 216 yards but he missed some throws as well, including one toward the end of the game that was highly disappointing. He had DaeSean Hamilton streaking toward the end zone with at least five steps on his defender. Lock threw the ball well past him.
If he completes that pass, most of what is talked about above would be different because the Broncos would have gone up by eight points, forcing the Titans to score a touchdown and a two-point conversion just to tie.
