The Broncos continued to force turnovers with two interceptions and one forced fumble on Lions QB Matthew Stafford. This athletic interception by Bradley Roby was the first of the night.
The rushing defense held the Lions to just 28 yards on the ground.
This touchdown by Owen Daniels put the Broncos up 24-12, effectively shutting the door on any realistic hopes for a Lions comeback.
RB Latavius Murray was able to shed tackles and elude defenders with ease, running for 139 yards against Cleveland.
DE Khalil Mack made Browns quarterback Josh McCown uncomfortable all day, recording two sacks and a forced fumble.
QB Derek Carr celebrates with WR Seth Roberts after a touchdown pass in the second quarter. The Raiders moved to 2-1 with the win.
The Chargers kept it close in the first half with this touchdown reception by WR Keenan Allen to cut the deficit to three points before halftime.
But the Vikings--much like RB Adrian Peterson on this play--broke away from the Chargers, reeling off 21 unanswered points. Peterson ran for a 43-yard touchdown on this play.
Ultimately the Chargers dropped their second straight game after losing to Cincinnati in the previous week.
The Chiefs fell down early in Green Bay on Monday Night Football as Aaron Rodgers connected on three touchdown passes in the first half.
WR Jeremy Maclin recorded 141 receiving yards and a touchdown, but the Chiefs' scoring came much too late.
QB Alex Smith was sacked seven times by the Packers and the Chiefs staggered to their second straight loss in a prime-time game.
