>> AS WE WELCOME YOU TO DENVER, A BEAUTIFUL DAY -- 45 DEGREES AT. KICKOFF TIME. THE JAGUARS AND. COACH TOM COUGHLIN -- HE'S BEEN.
CALLED A LOT OF THINGS. ONE OF THOSE IS A STRICT. DISCIPLINARIAN, AND WHAT'S. BECOME WRONG WITH DISCIPLINE? >> ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
THERE ARE NO HIDDEN AGENDAS WITH. COACH COUGHLIN. AND I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING. ABOUT IT.
EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS THEIR. ROLE. THEY'RE ALL UNDER ONE UMBRELLA. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS.
TOM COUGHLIN HAS A THEME FOR. EVERY WEEK. THIS WEEK IS THIS -- "WITH. SUCCESS COMES GREATER.
CHALLENGES." AND I'M GONNA TELL YOU SOMETHING. ELSE. THEY ALL UNDERSTAND WHERE HE'S. AT.
>> THAT'S A 2-TOUCHDOWN. UNDERDOG -- THE CHALLENGE TODAY. THE GREAT JOHN ELWAY OF THE. DENVER BRONCOS, HIS GREATNESS.
PASSBOOK HAS BEEN STAMPED ON. EVERY PAGE BUT SUPER BOWL. >> THAT'S RIGHT, DICK. AND IN MY OPINION, JOHN ELWAY.
PHYSICALLY IS THE MOST DYNAMIC. QUARTERBACK EVER TO PLAY IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. HE'S DURABLE.
HE'S TOUGH. HE HAS GREAT ARM STRENGTH. AND WE TALKED TO HIM YESTERDAY. HE SAYS, "YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M PLAYING QUARTERBACK NOW.
BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE." HE WAS VERY EXCITED BECAUSE HE. KNOWS THIS DENVER TEAM GIVES HIM. A CHANCE TO GO TO THE SUPER BOWL. AND WIN IT.
>> WELL, TALK IS OVER. IT'S TIME TO PLAY. THE WINNER GOES TO THE. AFC CHAMPIONSHIP.
ONLY ONE TIME HAVE THE BRONCOS. STUMBLED IN THE PLAYOFFS HERE. AT HOME, AND THEY MEET A TEAM, JACKSONVILLE, THAT HAS NOT LOST. A GAME SINCE MID-NOVEMBER.
AND TOM COUGHLIN'S YOUNG TEAM. MATURING RAPIDLY IN ITS SECOND. YEAR. AND THERE IS THE MAIN REASON, MARK BRUNELL.
HE HAS STARDOM WRITTEN ALL OVER. HIS TALENT. AND TO THINK THAT HE WAS ON THE. SAME GREEN BAY TEAM WITH.
BRETT FAVRE AND TY DETMER -- THREE MEN ALL QUARTERBACKING. TEAMS INTO THE PLAYOFFS THIS. YEAR. HERE WE GO IN DENVER! AND THE SPIRIT IS INDEED.
MILE HIGH. KICK COMES DOWN SHORT TO. RICKY BELL. FOUGHT THE SUN.
IT'S BUCKY BROOKS, A FORMER. BUFFALO BILL, ACROSS THE 25, TO. THE 27-YARD LINE. THE JAGUARS SEND OUT.
MARK BRUNELL, WHO LED THE LEAGUE. BOTH IN RUSHING AS A QUARTERBACK. AND HAD MORE PASSING YARDS. AND HERE'S THE MAIN REASON.
THE OFFENSIVE LINE DEVELOPING. INTO A GOOD ONE, AND. TONY BOSELLI A STAR. HE IS IMPOSING.
COLEMAN, WIDELL, TYLSKI, SEARCY, WHO WAS IN THE SUPER BOWL WITH. THE STEELERS LAST YEAR. NATRONE MEANS OFF HIS BEST-EVER. GAME IN BUFFALO.
MASTON IS THE BLOCKER. SMITH AND McCARDELL ARE THE. WIDE RECEIVERS, BOTH WITH MORE. THAN 80 CATCHES.
DEREK BROWN, THE EX-GIANT, AT. TIGHT END. [ CROWD CHEERS ] BRUNELL WAS HOARSE THROUGH THE. COURSE OF THIS WEEK, WITH LOUD.
NOISE PLAYED IN THE JAGUAR. PRACTICES FOR THIS REASON. LISTEN TO THE DIN. MEANS.
LOST A YARD. FLAGS FLY. DELAY OF GAME, AS BRUNELL, TRYING TO CHANGE PLAYS AND. COULDN'T DO IT AGAINST THE NOISE.
OF THIS CROWD. >> NO PLAY. DELAY ON THE OFFENSE. 5 YARDS -- STILL FIRST DOWN.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] GIVES US A CHANCE TO INTRODUCE. THE DENVER DEFENDERS. AS JIM POINTED OUT, ALL 11 OF. THESE MEN STARTED THE FIRST GAME.
OF THE YEAR. WILLIAMS, LODISH, MICHAEL DEAN PERRY, AND. ALFRED WILLIAMS. WILLIAMS, A CAREER YEAR, GOES TO.
THE PRO BOWL WITH MICHAEL DEAN. JOHN MOBLEY, THE ROOKIE FROM. KUTZTOWN STATE. ALDRIDGE, ROMANOWSKI, THE FORMER.
49Er AND EAGLE. CROCKETT AND WASHINGTON -- LOTS. OF EXPERIENCE AT THE CORNERS. BRAXTON HAD A SUPER YEAR -- 9 INTERCEPTIONS, TIED FOR THE.
LEAD LEAGUE. STEVE ATWATER, A MAN TO WATCH, 27. HE'LL BE ZEROING IN ON. NATRONE MEANS.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] FIRST AND 15. INCOMPLETE. AND RAY CROCKETT ALMOST GOT A. HAND ON IT.
REGGIE BARLOW WAS THE NEAREST. JAGUAR. >> WELL, WE KNOW WHERE THE. JAGUARS ON OFFENSE FEEL.
BRUNELL'S GOT TO HAVE A BIG. GAME. HE IS REALLY THE FACTOR IN THIS. FOOTBALL GAME.
THE OTHER GUY IS NATRONE MEANS. IF NATRONE MEANS GETS A HUNDRED. YARDS, THEN JACKSONVILLE. OFFENSIVELY WILL HAVE A CHANCE.
>> WELL, DENVER'S DEFENSE, THEY. KNOW THEY GOT TO STOP. MARK BRUNELL. AND WHAT THEY GOT TO DO TODAY, THE DEFENSIVE ENDS -- ALFRED WILLIAMS AND.
DAN WILLIAMS -- GO UP THE FIELD, DON'T GET INSIDE, KEEP. MARK BRUNELL IN THE POCKET, 'CAUSE ONCE HE GETS OUT, YOU'RE. IN TROUBLE. >> BOTH McCARDELL AND SMITH ARE.
TO THE RIGHT. GIVE IT TO MEANS ON THE DRAW, AND THE BIG MAN BARRELS HIS WAY. OUT TO THE 34-YARD LINE BEFORE. HE'S HORSE-COLLARED BY.
STEVE ATWATER -- A 12-YARD GAIN. BY MEANS, WHO HAS ALWAYS RUN. WELL AGAINST THE BRONCOS. AS A CHARGER HAD SOME BIG GAMES.
>> THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT CALL. IT'S A NICE TRAP. >> WELL, IT'S A GOOD CALL. IT'S A TRAP INSIDE.
IT'S SECOND AND 15. SPREAD DENVER'S DEFENSE OUT. TRAP UP INSIDE NATRONE MEANS. GOOD JOB GETTING CLOSE.
NOW YOU CAN PICK UP A THIRD. DOWN, THIRD AND SHORT. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> THIRD DOWN AND 3. SHOTGUN, BRUNELL.
INCOMPLETE. DEFLECTED AT THE LINE OF. SCRIMMAGE. DAN WILLIAMS, IT APPEARED, NUMBER 90, GOT A PIECE OF IT.
>> WELL, IT'S A GOOD JOB BY THE. DENVER DEFENSE. THEY SEND 5 PEOPLE AT. MARK BRUNELL, AND WATCH THE.
LANES, HOW THEY KEEP ALL OF IT. CLOSED DOWN. HE THINKS HE MIGHT WANT TO RUN, THEN HE REALIZES THERE'S NOWHERE. TO GO.
MAKE HIM STAND IN THERE AND. THROW THE FOOTBALL. >> AND HERE'S A BALL THAT'S JUST. BLOCKED RIGHT AT THE LINE OF.
SCRIMMAGE, AND THERE WAS NO. CHANCE. >> SHORT KICK, AND ROD SMITH. SAYS, "STAY AWAY FROM IT." TAKES A BOUNCE OUT OF BOUNDS, AND DENVER WILL HAVE GOOD.
POSITION AT ITS 37-YARD LINE. AND HERE COMES THE 36-YEAR-OLD. ELWAY, LOOKING FOR HIS FOURTH. TRIP TO A SUPER BOWL.
HIS OFFENSIVE LINE READS THIS. WAY... ZIMMERMAN GOES TO HIS SEVENTH. PRO BOWL.
SCHLERETH, OFF TWO KNEE. OPERATIONS IN MID-DECEMBER, STARTS. NALEN PLAYED FOR COUGHLIN AT. BOSTON COLLEGE.
HABIB AND THOMPSON, THE LINE. THE BACKFIELD -- TERRELL DAVIS, NOSED OUT FOR THE RUSHING TITLE. BY BARRY SANDERS. CRAVER, THE BLOCKER.
MILLER AND McCAFFREY, THE. WIDEOUTS. SHANNON SHARPE LED ALL TIGHT. ENDS WITH 80 CATCHES THIS YEAR.
DAVIS COMES OUT WAY TO THE LEFT, BOTTOM OF YOUR PICTURE, WITH. ELWAY IN A SHOTGUN ON FIRST. DOWN. THIS IS THAT CONCERN OF.
COUGHLIN, THE PLAY-CALLING OFF. THE TOP OF THE GAME. INTENDED FOR SHARPE AND BROKEN. UP BY TOM McMANUS.
DEFENSE FOR THE JAGUARS... McMANUS IN THE MIDDLE, A MAN OUT. OF WORK TWO YEARS AGO. JEFF LAGEMAN, DON DAVEY, JURKOVIC, AND SIMMONS.
SIMMONS WITH THAT BIG. INTERCEPTION IN BUFFALO FOR A. TOUCHDOWN. KEVIN HARDY, THE TOUTED ROOKIE.
FROM ILLINOIS, McMANUS, AND. ROBINSON THE BACKERS. AARON BEASLEY, A ROOKIE FROM. WEST VIRGINIA, STARTS, WITH.
MICKEY WASHINGTON, DANA HALL, AND CHRIS HUDSON AT SAFETY. SECOND AND 10 FOR ELWAY, AGAIN. IN THE SHOTGUN. FLAG DOWN.
ELWAY THROWS. COMPLETE TO ANTHONY MILLER, WHO. WAS DRILLED BY CHRIS HUDSON. LET'S SEE IF IT COUNTS.
COULD BE HOLDING IN THE. BACKFIELD AGAINST DENVER. >> IT IS HOLDING IN THE. BACKFIELD.
>> RED CASHION IS OUR REFEREE, HIS 25th YEAR IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. THIS WILL BE HIS LAST GAME, ONE. OF THE MOST POPULAR MEN AROUND.
IN A STRIPED JERSEY. >> HOLDING, NUMBER 75 ON THE. OFFENSE. 10 YARDS -- STILL SECOND DOWN.
>> BRIAN HABIB, NUMBER 75, THE. RIGHT GUARD, HE'S GONNA TRY TO. BLOCK JEFF LAGEMAN COMING. AROUND.
JEFF LAGEMAN, NUMBER 56, HAS. SPEED. HE TAKES IT INSIDE, AND, AS. TOM COUGHLIN SAID YESTERDAY, "HE.
DOESN'T HAVE GREAT STATS, BUT. THIS GUY IS PLAYING GREAT. DEFENSE FOR US RIGHT NOW." >> LAGEMAN, WHO CAME TO. JACKSONVILLE AS AN UNRESTRICTED.
FREE AGENT A YEAR AGO FROM. THE JETS. SO, ELWAY STARES AT SECOND AND. 20.
SCRAMBLES. HIS HAMSTRING IS BETTER. OH, IS IT EVER. DIVES ACROSS THE 45.
HE'S NEAR A FIRST DOWN. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> YOU KNOW WHAT THE THING ABOUT. THIS PLAY IS WHEN ELWAY DIVES, THOUGH, PHIL? THEY GIVE HIM THAT LITTLE BIT OF. EXTRA YARDAGE BECAUSE HE DIDN'T.
SLIDE. HE DIVES. IF HE SLIDES, IT'S WHERE THE. BALL HITS WHEN HE GOES DOWN ON.
THE GROUND. HERE'S ELWAY. THEY'RE PLAYING MAN COVERAGE. DOWNFIELD.
HE SEES THE OPENING, AND HE. TAKES OFF. YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT, DICK. HIS HAMSTRING IS FINE.
BUT HERE AT THE END, THEY'LL. GIVE HIM THIS LITTLE EXTRA. BECAUSE HE DIVES FORWARD, AND HE. ISN'T TOUCHED UNTIL THERE.
>> ONE OF THE ALL-TIME RUSHERS. AT QUARTERBACK, JOHN ELWAY, OVER. 3,000 YARDS, AND MANY FEEL. BRUNELL, IF HE STAYS HEALTHY, HE'LL BE IN THAT ELITE GROUP.
IT'S THIRD AND LESS THAN A YARD. TERRELL DAVIS GETS HIS FIRST. CHANCE AND HAS JUST ENOUGH FOR. THE FIRST DOWN TO THE 48-YARD.
LINE. BUT THE SCRAMBLE BY ELWAY THE. KEY AND SO REMINDFUL OF THE. TALENT OF ELWAY IN HIS YOUNGER.
YEARS, WHEN HE PLAYED ON LESSER. TEAMS. >> WELL, DICK, THE THING THEY'RE. DOING, THE BRONCOS, SPREADING.
THEIR OFFENSE OUT. JACKSONVILLE, THEY'RE MAKING. THEM DECLARE -- THEY CAN SEE. RIGHT AWAY, ELWAY CAN -- IS IT.
MAN OR ZONE? THE LAST TIME, HE KNEW IT WAS. MAN COVERAGE BY THE FORMATION. WHEN HE RUNS, THERE'S NOBODY. LOOKING AT HIM.
>> WELL, THEY'RE GOING TO GO. THROUGH THE FORMALITY OF A. MEASUREMENT. IT APPEARED THAT TERRELL DAVIS.
MADE IT BY PLENTY. >> WASN'T IT INTERESTING LAST. NIGHT, TOM COUGHLIN, THE COACH. OF THE JAGUARS, SAYING TO US.
THAT "WE DON'T EXPECT ELWAY TO. RUN. HE DOESN'T WANT TO RUN ANYMORE." AND WE'RE SITTING THERE, 'CAUSE. WE KNEW THAT HIS HAMSTRING, ELWAY'S, IS PERFECTLY FINE.
HE SAID, "IF I HAVE TO RUN, I'LL. RUN." BUT TOM COUGHLIN SAID, "I DON'T. THINK HE WILL." >> WELL, I THINK WHAT HE WAS. REALLY TRYING TO SAY, TOO, THOUGH, JOHN ELWAY WILL MOVE.
AROUND AND LOOK TO THROW IT. FIRST IF HE CAN, BECAUSE THAT'S. WHAT HE DOES, PAUL. HE LOVES TO MOVE AROUND, BUY.
THAT EXTRA SECOND AND THEN THROW. IT DOWN THE FIELD. >> AND THE BRONCOS SHOWING HOW. SUCCESSFUL THEY'VE BEEN ON.
OPENING DRIVES. THAT'S PART OF THAT SCHEME OF. SCRIPTING THE PLAYS. MIKE SHANAHAN BORROWED FROM.
SAN FRANCISCO. COMPLETE TO DWAYNE CARSWELL, THE. TIGHT END. TOPPLED BY AARON BEASLEY AFTER.
AN 8-YARD GAIN. >> WELL, DICK, WE TALKED ABOUT. IT EARLIER, THE SCRIPTED PLAYS. THEY HAVE 15 OF THEM.
AND, PAUL, YOU ASKED HIM, "DO. YOU SAVE ANYTHING FOR LATER IN. THE GAME?" AND HE SAYS, "NO, I GIVE THEM. ALL MY GOOD STUFF EARLY," AND.
THIS IS ONE OF THEM, THE. PLAY-ACTION FAKE ONE WAY, ROLLING OUT. THE BRONCOS LOVE THIS PLAY. IT'S CALLED A NAKED BOOTLEG.
JACKSONVILLE SAYS, "WE GOT TO. STOP IT." FIRST TIME OUT, THEY LET IT GET. BY, THOUGH. >> CARSWELL, THE MAN WHO CAUGHT.
THAT ONE, IS FROM JACKSONVILLE. THAT'S WHERE HE GREW UP. SO, HE IS PLEASED TO GET AN. EARLY CALL.
SECOND AND 2. TERRELL DAVIS. AND GOOD JOB DEFENSIVELY AGAINST. THE RUN BY JACKSONVILLE.
JIM? >> WELL, DICK, I SPOKE TO. SHANNON SHARPE BEFORE HE WAS. INTRODUCED. HE SAID HEAD COACH MIKE SHANAHAN.
HAD A BRIEF MESSAGE. HE SAID, "DON'T PLAY CAUTIOUS. DON'T PLAY AS THOUGH YOU ARE. GOING TO LOSE THE GAME.
IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, AND. YOU'RE PLAYING HARD, THAT'S. OKAY. WE'LL PLAY THROUGH THE MISTAKE.
BUT LET'S PLAY TODAY WITH TOTAL. RECKLESS ABANDON." DICK? >> MIKE SHANAHAN IN HIS SECOND. YEAR. INTERESTINGLY, HE HAS ONE LESS.
PLAYOFF GAME AS HEAD COACH THAN. TOM COUGHLIN. THIS IS HIS FIRST, AND COUGHLIN, OF COURSE, LAST WEEK WITH THE. WIN AT BUFFALO.
THIRD AND 2. ACTUALLY LOST ABOUT A HALF YARD. ON THAT LAST CARRY. ELWAY.
INCOMPLETE. SHANNON SHARPE. THE THROW WAS A LITTLE LOW, AND. SHARPE APPEARED TO KICK IT OUT.
OF HIS OWN GRASP WITH HIS KNEE. >> WELL, THEY GOT THE MATCHUP. THEY WANTED. THEY GOT SHANNON SHARPE ON A.
SAFETY, TRAVIS DAVIS, ONE-ON-ONE, AND HE JUST DROPS. THE FOOTBALL. >> SHARPE, WHO HAS HIGH. EXPECTATIONS GOING INTO THESE.
PLAYOFFS, AS THE PRO BOWL. TIGHT END, AFC. TOM ROUEN TO PUNT, HIS NET OVER. 36.
AND CHRIS HUDSON, WHO PLAYED UP. IN BOULDER AT THE. UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO, BACK AT. THE 10 FOR JACKSONVILLE.
HIGH. HUDSON STARING. BEAUTIFUL BOUNCE FOR DENVER AND. WILL BE DOWNED AT ABOUT THE.
10-YARD LINE. >> THERE'S BEEN A CHANGE ALREADY. ON THE OFFENSIVE LINE FOR THE. JAGUARS BECAUSE NUMBER 79, THEIR.
CENTER, DAVE WIDELL, HAS A. STRAINED LEFT CALF. HE CAME OUT OF THE GAME. SO, HIS BACKUP, NUMBER 63, MICHAEL CHEEVER, IS IN THE GAME.
BACK TO YOU, DICK. >> ALL RIGHT, BEASLEY. FIRST DOWN FOR BRUNELL AND THE. JAGUARS AT THEIR OWN 10.
GIVE IT TO MEANS, AND NATRONE. FOR A YARD AND THAT'S ALL, AS. JOHN MOBLEY LED THE DEFENSIVE. CHARGE.
NATRONE MEANS FROM CONCORD, NORTH CAROLINA, WAS A. SECOND-ROUND PICK OF THE. CHARGERS. [ CROWD CHEERS ] FAKE.
BRUNELL ON THE ROLL. ALFRED WILLIAMS CAN'T GET HIM. THROWS INCOMPLETE. THROWS IT AWAY.
SO, WILLIAMS WITH A CHANCE FOR A. SACK, COULDN'T QUITE BRING. BRUNELL DOWN. >> WELL, ALFRED WILLIAMS, NUMBER 91, WE GOT A CHANCE TO.
TALK TO HIM. AND HIS JOB TODAY? MAKE SURE YOU KEEP MARK BRUNELL. IN THAT POCKET. HE DOES A GOOD JOB.
HE SEES HIM COMING OUT. HE GETS OUTSIDE, MAKES HIM PULL. UP. THAT'S IMPORTANT.
NOW HE CAN'T MAKE THE PLAY DOWN. THE FIELD. IT'S NOT IMPORTANT FOR HIM TODAY. TO GET THE SACKS.
MAKE MARK BRUNELL BEAT YOU FROM. INSIDE. >> WASN'T IT SOMETHING, BECAUSE. THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK, WHEN.
THEY TOLD HIM, "YOU'RE GONNA BE. A CONTAIN MAN," HE SAID, "I WAS. REALLY DISAPPOINTED. THEN, A COUPLE DAYS LATER, I.
REALIZED THIS IS A TEAM SPORT. I HAVE TO DO WHAT THE DEFENSE. CALLS FOR." >> BRUNELL LOOKING FOR HIS FIRST. COMPLETION, 0-FOR-3.
SCREENS IT TO MEANS. FALLS AT THE 14. AND THE JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS. WILL HAVE TO PUNT.
>> THAT TIME HE GOT. ALFRED WILLIAMS IN COVERAGE. THEY PLAY THAT ZONE-BLITZING. DEAL, WHERE WILLIAMS DROPS OFF.
AND HE WAS THE GUY THAT MAKES. THE TACKLE WHEN MEANS GOES DOWN. ON THE SCREEN. >> ON TO PUNT, BRYAN BARKER.
HAD A GOOD SEASON, AVERAGING. NEARLY 44. BUT HIS FIRST PUNT WASN'T MUCH, ONLY 29. AND HE LINES THIS ONE.
RETURNABLE. SMITH HANDLES THE HOP AT THE 45 AND STEPS OUT AT THE DENVER 49, A 41-YARD KICK, 5 ON THE RETURN. FIDGETING, BITING HIS NAILS LIKE. ANY FATHER, JOHN ELWAY'S DAD, JACK ELWAY, A LONGTIME COACH -- WASHINGTON STATE, STANFORD, CAL STAGE -- NORTHRIDGE.
STILL INVOLVED WITH THE BRONCOS. SAID HE KNEW HE HAD SOMETHING. SPECIAL IN ELWAY'S JUNIOR YEAR. IN HIGH SCHOOL.
HE SAID, "OH, IS HE GOING TO BE. GOOD." JACK HIMSELF A TERRIFIC. QUARTERBACK IN HIS WASHINGTON. HIGH SCHOOL DAYS.
ELWAY FIRES COMPLETE TO. TERRELL DAVIS. IT'LL BE SHORT YARDAGE TO THE. JACKSONVILLE 49.
KEVIN HARDY, THE ROOKIE BACKER. FROM ILLINOIS, MADE THE STOP. >> DICK, WE WERE WATCHING HIM. BITING HIS NAILS.
HE'S GOT THOSE NAILS UP TO THE. FIRST KNUCKLE. [ LAUGHS ] THERE WILL BE NO NAIL -- LOOK. HE IS JUST NERVOUS.
>> YOU CAN'T ENJOY THE GAME AS A. FATHER RIGHT THERE. HE'S JUST PLAYING EVERY PLAY. AND, OF COURSE, BEING AN.
EX-COACH JUST MAKES IT WORSE, TOO, BECAUSE YOU MIGHT. UNDERSTAND TOO MUCH OF WHAT'S. GOING ON. >> PRETTY GOOD GENES IN THAT.
ELWAY FAMILY. JACK ELWAY, HIS FATHER -- HIS. GRANDDAD, JOHN ELWAY'S -- WAS A. PLAYER BACK IN ALTOONA.
PLAYED AGAINST JIM THORPE. TOSS TO TERRELL DAVIS. AND HE MAKES HIS FIRST. STATEMENT! DAVIS IS CLEAR TO THE 10.
OUT OF BOUNDS INSIDE THE 5! >> OH, DID HE GET SOME GREAT. BLOCKING DOWNFIELD. HE SET THIS WHOLE THING UP FOR. THE RECEIVERS TO BE ABLE TO.
BLOCK DOWNFIELD. >> REALLY WHAT MAKES THE PLAY. GO -- WATCH THE OFFENSIVE. LINEMEN OF DENVER.
THEY GET THE BLOCKS. THEY STAY WITH THEM. THE DEFENSIVE LINEMEN CANNOT GET. OFF.
THAT ENABLES TERRELL DAVIS TO. GET OUT IN THE OPEN FIELD. AND THAT'S WHAT THE JACKSONVILLE. PEOPLE TOLD US.
AS A GROUP, DENVER'S OFFENSIVE. LINE IS THE BEST IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. >> HERE COMES ANTHONY MILLER.
WATCH ANTHONY. HE JUST STAYS WITH HIS MAN, AND. TERRELL JUST BREAKS IT RIGHT OFF. BEHIND HIM.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BLOCK BY A. RECEIVER. >> DAVIS NOW GETS THE CALL ON. FIRST AND GOAL.
AND HE HAS NOT QUITE KNOCKED IT. IN, AS THE SIGNAL IS AT THE. ONE-FOOT LINE, AS A VERY. INTERESTED SPECTATOR WATCHES.
TERRELL DAVIS GET UP OFF THE. PILE. KATEREE DAVIS, HIS MOTHER, UP. HERE FROM SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA.
HE WAS A STAR AT. LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL THERE, SAME. SCHOOL THAT PRODUCED. MARCUS ALLEN.
47-YARD RUN BY DAVIS GOT THEM. INSIDE THE 5 AND NOW SECOND AND. GOAL. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> USUALLY A QUARTERBACK SNEAK.
OUT OF THIS FORMATION. >> ELWAY. PUTS THE BALL -- LURCHES FOR IT. AND DIDN'T QUITE GET THE CALL.
NOT QUITE IN, SAYS THE HEAD. LINESMAN. IT'LL BE THIRD AND GOAL. >> WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE FROM UP.
HERE THAT JOHN ELWAY GOT THE. FOOTBALL OVER THE GOAL LINE. LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT IT. HE KNOWS HE'S STOPPED WHEN HE.
STICKS THE BALL OUT. IT'S DEFINITELY ACROSS THE LINE. >> UNLESS THEY RULED THAT HIS. PROGRESS HAD BEEN STOPPED BEFORE.
HE LEANED FORWARD. >> I TELL YOU WHO DID A GREAT. JOB WAS LAGEMAN. LAGEMAN CAME DOWN AND JUST.
NAILED ELWAY, AND THAT'S WHERE. THEY MIGHT HAVE CALLED HE. STOPPED FORWARD PROGRESS. BUT THE BALL WAS OVER THE GOAL.
LINE. >> CRAVER AND DAVIS NOW LINE UP. BEHIND ELWAY. TERRELL DAVIS STACKED UP! HE DOES NOT GET IN! FROM THE BACK SIDE, TONY BRACKENS HELPED OUT A.
TERRIFIC SURGE BY THAT DEFENSIVE. RIGHT SIDE OF THE LINE AGAIN, LED BY LAGEMAN. >> WELL, IT'S A GOOD JOB BY THE. JACKSONVILLE DEFENSIVE LINE.
INSIDE. DON DAVEY AND JOHN JURKOVIC. GET BACK INTO -- THEY BEAT THE. OFFENSIVE LINE TO THE PUNCH.
>> OH, WELL, THAT COULD HAVE. BEEN A VERY COSTLY PLAY, AS. TERRELL DAVIS SLOW GETTING UP. DAVIS, YOU'LL RECALL, IF YOU.
WERE WITH US EARLY IN THE YEAR, IN THE SAN DIEGO GAME, SUFFERING. MIGRAINE HEADACHES AND THEN. RECOVERED AND THEN HAS GIVEN. THAT TO THE REST OF THE LEAGUE.
DEFENSIVELY, WITH OVER. 1,500 YARDS RUSHING. >> BOY, THE LINEBACKERS FILL. BEAUTIFULLY ON THIS PLAY, AND.
TERRELL DAVIS IS TRYING TO GET. UP OVER THE TOP. AND THEN THE LINEBACKERS FILL, AND THE DEFENSIVE LINE COMING. DOWN.
BUT THE LINEBACKERS ARE THE ONES. THAT FILLED TO STOP THE FORWARD. PROGRESS. >> IT LOOKS LIKE HE GOT BENT.
BACK OVER HIS LEG, AND THAT. CAUSED SOME PAIN. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT HE HURT. >> SO, BRACKENS FROM THE BACK.
SIDE, WITH ALL THE PRESSURE. FORWARD, AS DAVIS, 5 CARRIES. THUS FAR. [ CROWD CHEERS ] APPEARS TO BE OKAY.
>> BUT BEFORE HE WENT DOWN, DICK, BEFORE THEY KNEW HE WAS. HURT, THEY JUST SAID -- THERE'S. HIS MOTHER. >> KATEREE.
>> BUT BEFORE HE WENT DOWN, THEY. JUST SAID, "WE'RE GONNA GO ON. FOURTH DOWN." AND THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED THEIR. MIND.
>> FOURTH AND GOAL. IT STARTED AT THE 3. DAVIS GOT 2 YARDS, AND THEN TWO. SHOTS FROM THE 1 HAVE FAILED FOR.
DENVER. AND NOW FOURTH AND GOAL. THEY LINE UP WITH VAUGHN HEBRON. AS THE TAILBACK BEHIND CRAVER.
IT'S HEBRON. TOUCHDOWN! [ CROWD CHEERS ] NOT AS BIG OR POWERFUL AS. TERRELL DAVIS, BUT HEBRON, THE. FORMER VIRGINIA TECH STAR, SLAMS.
IT IN, AND DENVER HAS THE FIRST. SCORE. >> YOU KNOW, YOU ALWAYS SAY YOU. PUT POINTS ON THE BOARD WHEN YOU.
CAN. BUT MIKE SHANAHAN IS A LITTLE. BIT DIFFERENT. HE JUST SAID, "I'M AT HOME.
I'M GOING FOR IT." >> JASON ELAM FOR THE EXTRA. POINT, AND NO GOOD. THE FIRST MISS THIS YEAR BY THE. DENVER BRONCOS.
>> WELL, THAT THING NEVER EVEN. CLEARED THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. >> WATCH GARY ZIMMERMAN, THE. LEFT TACKLE, NUMBER 65, CREATE.
THE HOLE FOR THE DENVER. TOUCHDOWN. DOES A GOOD JOB PUSHING IT DOWN. INSIDE.
ENABLES THE BACK TO GO OUTSIDE. AND SCORE AN EASY TOUCHDOWN. >> AND JOHN ELWAY'S WIFE, JANET, ANXIOUSLY WATCHING. [ LAUGHTER ] WASN'T SO HAPPY WHEN SHE WATCHED.
THE ENSUING PLAY, THE EXTRA. POINT, BLOCKED BY VETERAN. CLYDE SIMMONS, AS HEBRON ENJOYS. A FIRST PLAYOFF SCORE.
AND SIMMONS BLOCKS HIS THIRD. KICK OF THE YEAR AND HIS. ELEVENTH OF HIS LONG AND. ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER.
6-0 AND WE'LL SEE HOW IMPORTANT. THAT IS AS THE GAME UNFOLDS. BUCKY BROOKS RUNNING INTO HIS. OWN MAN AND TACKLED INSIDE THE.
15. ROD SMITH MADE THE PLAY. JIM? >> WELL, DICK, TERRELL DAVIS. TWISTED HIS RIGHT KNEE.
ATTEMPTING TO GO OVER THE GOAL. LINE. THE BRONCOS TRAINING STAFF IS. LOOKING AT HIM RIGHT NOW.
THEY SAY IT'S JUST A TWIST, AND. HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO RETURN THE. NEXT SERIES. DICK? >> GOOD NEWS FOR BRONCO FANS, AS.
JACKSONVILLE, DOWN 6-0, AND. PREDICTABLY, DENVER TOUGH IN. THIS OPENING QUARTER. BEST IN THE LEAGUE AT PRODUCING.
POINTS IN THE FIRST PERIOD. [ CROWD CHEERS ] BRUNELL SCRAMBLING AND BROUGHT. DOWN BY DAN WILLIAMS. WILLIAMS WITH A SACK, A LOSS OF.
ABOUT A YARD AT THE 12. >> MIKE LODISH SETS IT UP. HE'S A DEFENSIVE TACKLE, 97. FORCES BRUNELL TO STEP UP, AND.
WHEN HE DOES THAT, THEN. DAN WILLIAMS MAKES THE PLAY. >> MIKE LODISH, NUMBER 97. WATCH DAN WILLIAMS, NUMBER 90.
STAYS OUTSIDE. YOU'RE NOT COMING OUT HERE. WELL, THEN, BRUNELL SCRAMBLES. HE FALLS OFF OF HIS BLOCK AND.
GETS THE SACK. >> YOU SEE WHERE ALFRED WILLIAMS. WAS AGAIN, PHIL? WAY TO THE OUTSIDE. HE'S GOT CONTAIN.
>> BRUNELL SACKED MORE THAN ANY. NFL QUARTERBACK THIS SEASON. [ CROWD CHEERS ] MEANS. TO THE 15 AND THAT'S ALL.
>> YOU CAN'T RUN THAT PLAY WITH. MEANS AND MAKE THAT BIG A DELAY, NOT AS QUICK AS THIS DENVER. DEFENSE IS, PHIL. IF YOU'RE GONNA RUN.
NATRONE MEANS UP THE MIDDLE, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO RUN HIM ON. A DIRECT HIT, RIGHT NOW. >> DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR. GREG ROBINSON CALLING THE SHOTS.
IT'S NOW THIRD DOWN AND 9. >> WELL, IT'S HARD TO RUN THE. BALL SOMETIMES AGAINST THIS. DENVER DEFENSE BECAUSE THEY PUT.
SO MANY PEOPLE UP TO THE LINE OF. SCRIMMAGE, YOU CANNOT BLOCK THEM. ALL. AND THEY HAVE THE SPEED.
THAT'S WHY THEY MAKE THE EASY. TACKLES. >> OFFICIALLY THIRD AND 8. BRUNELL.
COMPLETE TO McCARDELL. KEENAN McCARDELL TO THE 21, NOT. ENOUGH FOR THE FIRST DOWN. WRESTLED DOWN BY TORY JAMES, ONE.
OF THE TWO YOUNG CORNERBACKS. HERE IN DENVER THAT SHANAHAN'S. VERY HIGH ON -- JAMES AND. DARRIUS JOHNSON.
SO, TOM COUGHLIN WATCHES HIS. TEAM SPUTTER AGAIN, TRAILING. 6-0, AND ON COMES PUNTER. BRYAN BARKER.
>> WELL, WE TALK ABOUT DENVER'S. FAST STARTS. THEIR OFFENSE IS GREAT. THE TALENT ON THAT SIDE OF THE.
BALL IS GREAT. BUT THIS DEFENSE REALLY SETS IT. UP, TOO. THEY CONTINUOUSLY KEEP GIVING.
THE BALL BACK TO THE EXPLOSIVE. OFFENSE. >> ROD SMITH, OVER-THE-SHOULDER. CATCH.
ELUDES ONE MAN AT THE 30 AND. THEN IS STORMED AT THE 36-YARD. LINE. BRIGHT SKIES HERE IN DENVER ON.
THIS SATURDAY. FIRST DOWN AT THE BRONCO 36. VAUGHN HEBRON BEHIND ELWAY. GETS THE PITCH.
AND THE SPEEDY, LITTLE TAILBACK. OUT TO THE 40-YARD LINE. >> ONE THING -- SORRY, DICK. >> GO AHEAD.
>> ONE THING TOM COUGHLIN TOLD. US YESTERDAY. HE SAYS, "IF I HAVE TO COMMIT MY. SAFETIES TO COME UP AND STOP THE.
RUNNING GAME, WE'RE IN A LOT OF. TROUBLE." AND ALREADY, AFTER THAT LAST. DRIVE, I CAN SEE THE SAFETIES. FOR JACKSONVILLE UP TO THE LINE.
OF SCRIMMAGE, TRYING TO HELP OUT. AGAINST THE RUN. >> YOU SAW TERRELL DAVIS CHECK. INTO THE BRONCO HUDDLE.
SECOND AND 7. A BULLET. COMPLETE TO MILLER AT THE. 44-YARD LINE OF THE JAGUARS'.
MICKEY WASHINGTON COVERING. 16 ON THE PLAY. >> LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING. THE JAGUARS BETTER DO SOMETHING.
THEY HAVE A FULL-SCALE BLITZ. COMING, AND THIS OFFENSIVE. LINE -- WATCH THEM PICK IT UP. HERE THEY COME, FIVE GUYS ON A.
BLITZ. AND THEY DON'T EVEN GET CLOSE TO. ELWAY. >> AND JOHN ELWAY HAS SO MANY.
WEAPONS TO THROW TO. ONE-ON-ONE, ANTHONY MILLER WITH. HIS GREAT SPEED. IT'S HARD TO COVER HIM ACROSS.
THE MIDDLE. >> SHANNON SHARPE SPLITS OFF ON. THE RIGHT SIDE. McCAFFREY IN THE SLOT AND MILLER.
TO THE LEFT. SHOTGUN. ELWAY STEPS UP. THROWS UNDERNEATH, AARON CRAVER.
AND CRAVER TO THE JACKSONVILLE. 37. >> PHIL, WHEN THEY'VE SENT OUT. FIVE GUYS, THEY DON'T HAVE.
ENOUGH PEOPLE TO COVER. CRAVER'S SITTING OUT THERE ALL. BY HIMSELF. ELWAY LOOKS DOWNFIELD.
HE HAS PLENTY OF TIME. THERE'S NO ONE OPEN. "SO, I'LL JUST DUMP IT OFF TO. THE FULLBACK AND PICK UP ABOUT.
7." >> YEAH, YOU KNOW, THE WORST. THING YOU CAN DO IS GET 7. THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD CHOICE FOR. THE QUARTERBACK.
>> [ Laughing ] YEAH! >> BUT, AGAIN, THE SCRIPTED. PLAYS. THE PLAY-CALLING IS AGGRESSIVE. BY THE BRONCOS EARLY IN THE.
GAME. THEY WANT TO COME AT YOU, GET. YOU REELING, THINKING ABOUT. EVERYTHING -- FORMATIONS AND.
JUST DIFFERENT PLAYS. >> SECOND AND 3, AND A TOSS TO. DAVIS. DAVIS, INSIDE THE 35, TO THE 33, HAS ANOTHER FIRST DOWN.
PRITCHETT AND ROBINSON THE. TACKLERS. >> DANA HALL GETS HURT ON THE. PLAY.
HE'S TRYING TO REACH AROUND. ZIMMERMAN AND MAKE THE PLAY, AND. I THINK HE CATCHES HIS ARM ON. TERRELL DAVIS.
ZIMMERMAN REALLY DOESN'T GET A. GOOD BLOCK ON HIM BECAUSE. DANA HALL DOES THE RIGHT THING. HE CUTS BACK INSIDE ON A TOSS.
BUT HE CATCHES HIS ARM. >> DANA HALL IS NUMBER 28. WATCH HIM ON THE OUTSIDE. HERE HE IS.
REACHES BACK INSIDE. I CAN'T TELL WHAT HAPPENED. >> NO, THE ONLY THING YOU CAN. SEE IS THAT HIS ARM GETS CAUGHT.
ON TERRELL DAVIS, AND THAT'LL. PULL IT RIGHT OUT OF JOINT. >> ONE OF SEVEN JAGUARS THAT. STARTED THE SEASON TO PLAY IN A.
SUPER BOWL, DANA HALL, OF. COURSE, WITH THE 49ers ON THAT. '94 TEAM. >> OH, HE CATCHES HIM WITH A.
RIGHT HOOK RIGHT IN THE HEAD. WITH HIS HAND. HE'S UP. YEAH, HE SAID, "I'M ALL RIGHT.
I DON'T LIKE THE WAY YOU SMACKED. ME IN THE MOUTH." >> HE WAS A TEAMMATE OF. MARK BRUNELL'S AND. BILLY JOE HOBERT AT THE.
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON IN. THEIR ROSE BOWL GLORY YEARS OF. THE EARLY '90s AND DRAFTED VERY HIGH BY THE. 49Ers.
WAS THE NUMBER-ONE PICK. >> AND WITH THAT PLAY, THE. BRONCOS ARE IN A FIRST-DOWN. SITUATION AGAIN.
>> THAT WAS THEIR 15th PLAY, AND. THAT'S HOW MANY THEY SCRIPT. NORMALLY. >> WELL, NOW HE DOESN'T KNOW.
WHAT TO DO NOW. [ LAUGHTER ] >> IT'S UP TO ELWAY. THAT'S NOT ALL BAD. LEADING 6-0 HERE IN THE FIRST.
QUARTER. 2:00 REMAIN. COMPLETE TO McCAFFREY AT THE 19. TACKLED BY BEASLEY.
13 MORE FOR DENVER. >> YOU DON'T REALLY REALIZE HOW. GREAT A CATCH THIS IS BY. McCAFFREY BECAUSE HE'S LOOKING.
DIRECTLY INTO THE SUN. >> THAT'S A GOOD POINT, BUT. HARDY, NUMBER 51, COMING FROM. THE OUTSIDE.
SO, YOU GOT MAN COVERAGE AGAIN. BY THE JACKSONVILLE DEFENSE, AND. HE GETS AROUND TERRELL DAVIS. BUT IT SHOWS YOU, JACKSONVILLE, THEY'RE GONNA COME AFTER ELWAY.
THEY GOT TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN, 'CAUSE IF YOU SIT BACK, THEY. CANNOT STOP DENVER'S OFFENSE. >> NOW, PART OF THE SCRIPT WAS. TO GET EVERYONE INVOLVED -- 5 COMPLETIONS, 5 DIFFERENT.
RECEIVERS FOR ELWAY. FIRST DOWN AT THE 19. 6-0, DENVER, AND IT'S. TERRELL DAVIS BURROWING FOR A.
COUPLE. KELVIN PRITCHETT, THE FORMER. DETROIT LION, LEADING THE WAY, NUMBER 94. >> ONE OF THE GOOD THINGS, WHEN.
THE BRONCOS WENT DOWN, FOR. JACKSONVILLE WAS THAT THEY. SCORED A TOUCHDOWN, YEAH, AND IT. TOOK THEM FOUR DOWNS TO GET IT.
IN THERE. THEN THEY MISSED THE EXTRA. POINT. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS, JACKSONVILLE'S HAD THE BALL.
THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE A FIRST. DOWN OR EVEN CLOSE TO A FIRST. DOWN.
>> CHANGE AT TIGHT END FOR. DENVER AS NUMBER 86, BYRON CHAMBERLAIN, COMES IN. THEY FEEL HE'S GONNA BE A VERY. GOOD PLAYER.
CAME ON IN THE LAST COUPLE OF. GAMES. DANA HALL HAS RETURNED FOR. JACKSONVILLE.
SECOND AND 9. ELWAY. GUNS. TOUCHDOWN, SHANNON SHARPE! [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> THEY WILL GO FOR 2 HERE.
I THINK I'LL JUST CALL ELWAY. "ROCKET MAN." [ LAUGHS ] THAT BALL WAS A ROCKET. THE DEFENSIVE SECONDARY HAD NO. CHANCE, PHIL.
>> WELL, WE ALWAYS SAY, PAUL, YOU CAN'T STOP A PERFECT THROW. THAT WAS A PERFECT THROW. >> WELL, WE MENTIONED THAT HE'S. SPREADING IT AROUND.
THAT WAS HIS SIXTH COMPLETION, HIS SIXTH DIFFERENT RECEIVER, AND SHANNON SHARPE HAS THE. TOUCHDOWN. HE HAD 10 DURING THE REGULAR. SEASON.
AND NOW BECAUSE OF THE BLOCKED. EXTRA POINT ON THEIR FIRST. SCORE, THEY'LL GO FOR 2. FROM THE SHOTGUN WITH CRAVER AND.
DAVIS BOOKENDING ELWAY AND. SENDING CRAVER IN MOTION. INCOMPLETE. SHARPE WAS OPEN.
HANDCUFFED BY THE THROW, IT. APPEARED. SO, 12-0 THE SCORE HERE IN. DENVER.
>> JOHN IS UPSET. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER IT'S WITH. HIMSELF OR WITH SHARPE, BUT HE'S. UPSET.
>> WELL, I THINK HE'S UPSET WITH. HIMSELF. HE THREW IT A LITTLE BEHIND. SHANNON SHARPE.
BUT LOOKING AT THE TOUCHDOWN, DENVER SPREADS THE FIELD. WATCH SHANNON SHARPE. HE COMES IN MOTION. THEY LEAVE THE MIDDLE OF THE.
FIELD OPEN. DENVER THOUGHT THEY COULD TAKE. ADVANTAGE OF DEEP, DOWN THE. MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.
AND LOOK AT SHANNON SHARPE -- THE SPEED FOR A TIGHT END. PEOPLE LOOK AT HIM. THEY SAY, "TIGHT END," BUT THEY. JUST DON'T REALIZE HOW FAST HE.
CAN GET DOWN THERE AND MAKE. THINGS HAPPEN. >> WELL, THEY GOT A LINEBACKER. THAT TRIES TO HELP OUT ON HIM, HARDY RIGHT THERE.
HE'S GOT HIM SHORT. AND THEN LONG NEVER GETS THERE. SO, THE SAFETY DOESN'T GET OVER. TO HELP OUT, AND IT'S A.
TOUCHDOWN. BUT IT'S A PERFECT THROW, AND. YOU'RE RIGHT. HOW DO YOU DEFEAT THE PERFECT.
THROW? >> SO, ELWAY TAKES HIS TEAM. 64 YARDS IN 7 PLAYS, AND. SHANNON SHARPE, 18 YARDS ON THE. TOUCHDOWN.
ELWAY WAS 4-FOR-4 ON THE DRIVE. >> THAT WAS AN INTERESTING. GRAPHIC YOU HAD AT THE BEGINNING. OF THE SHOW, PHIL, THAT THEY'RE.
THE NUMBER-ONE TEAM IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE IN THE. FIRST QUARTER IN SCORING. >> PAUL, WE'VE HEARD IT BEFORE.
EVERYBODY COMES IN HERE AND. PLAYS THE BRONCOS, THEY SAY THE. SAME THING. IT'S LIKE THE 49ers USED TO BE.
YEARS AGO. "WE GOT TO STOP THEM EARLY. BECAUSE THEY GET OFF TO SUCH A. GREAT START.
AND IF WE CAN, WE CAN PLAY WITH. THEM." WELL, IT'S A GREAT THEORY. THEY JUST CAN'T MAKE IT WORK. YOU CAN'T STOP THEM EARLY IN A.
FOOTBALL GAME. >> SO, JACKSONVILLE IS GOING TO. HAVE TO MUSTER SOME OFFENSE. AS PAUL POINTED OUT, THREE.
POSSESSIONS, THREE-AND-OUT, AND. THEY HAVEN'T HELD THE BALL FOR. MORE THAN 1:57 ON ALL THREE. POSSESSIONS.
BUCKY BROOKS AT THE GOAL LINE. BROOKS ONLY TO THE 20, MAYBE THE. 21-YARD LINE. RANDY HILLIARD IN ON THE TACKLE.
AS BRUNELL TAKES THE FIELD FOR. THE FOURTH TIME. >> LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT. SHANNON SHARPE ON THE 2-POINT.
CONVERSION. DOES A GOOD JOB. FAKES OUTSIDE AND LOOK AT THAT. OPENING.
THE BALL, IT'S REALLY A GOOD. THROW. SHANNON SHARPE, YOU'RE AN. ALL-PRO.
YOU GOT TO MAKE THOSE TOUGH. CATCHES. AND ELWAY, HEY, HE WANTS IT ALL. >> HE DOES.
>> HE WAS EXCITED THIS WEEK. DURING PRACTICE, MEETING WITH. US, AND YOU COULD TELL ALL OF IT. WAS WORTH IT BECAUSE HE.
PREPARED WELL, AND HE'S GOT OFF. TO A GOOD START TODAY. >> JUST 23 SECONDS LEFT IN THIS. OPENING QUARTER.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] BRUNELL. ALMOST PICKED OFF BY. ALLEN ALDRIDGE, THE MIDDLE. LINEBACKER.
IT WAS INTENDED FOR. KEENAN McCARDELL. >> BOY, I'LL TELL YOU. ALLEN ALDRIDGE -- YOU TALK ABOUT.
READING A QUARTERBACK'S EYES, DICK, AND GETTING INTO THE PLAY. ALL HE DID WAS JUST SIT THERE. READ BRUNELL. LOOK AT HIM.
YOU SEE 57? HE'S LOOKING AT THE. QUARTERBACK'S EYES. GETS HIMSELF IN A PERFECT. POSITION.
>> WE SAY IT ALL THE TIME, BUT. THAT'S ANOTHER GOOD EXAMPLE. DENVER, THE CHANGE IN THE TEAM. SPEED.
LAST YEAR THEY WOULD NOT HAVE. GOTTEN THERE TO BREAK THAT PASS. UP. YOU SEE IT EVERY GAME WITH THIS.
TEAM. >> ALL THREE LINEBACKERS RUN THE. 40 IN 4.6 OR BETTER. [ CROWD CHEERS ] THREE TIGHT ENDS THIS TIME.
A LOAD TO THE RIGHT, AND THEN. THEY GIVE IT TO MEANS, BUT MEANS. TRIPPED UP AS HE GETS TO THE. 25-YARD LINE ON THE FINAL PLAY.
OF THIS OPENING QUARTER. IT'LL BE JACKSONVILLE, THIRD. DOWN AND ABOUT 6 WHEN WE GO TO. THE SECOND.
SO, THIS OPENING 15 MINUTES HAS. BEEN ALL ON THE SIDE OF THE. DENVER BRONCOS. WE'RE BACK IN DENVER.
A FEW JAGUAR FANS WITH CHERRY. SEAT LOCATIONS. >> YEAH. YEAH, LOOK WHERE THESE PEOPLE.
ARE. THEY'RE UP IN THE CORNER OF THE. END ZONE, DIRECTLY INTO THE SUN. THEY HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN THE FIRST.
QUARTER YET. >> HEY, THEY'RE THE ENEMY. >> [ LAUGHS ] >> YOU KNOW, THE ENEMY -- WHY. TREAT THEM GOOD? LET THEM KNOW.
"THIS IS OUR PLACE. WE'RE GONNA GIVE YOU THE WORST. SEATS IN THE HOUSE." >> YEAH, I GUESS YOU'RE RIGHT. >> HEY, THEY'RE HAPPY TO BE.
HERE. >> JIMMY SMITH IS THE TOP. THIRD-DOWN RECEIVER IN THE. LEAGUE THIS YEAR, 25 FIRST.
DOWNS. HE HAD A TOTAL OF 83 CATCHES. FROM JACKSON STATE. WHEN THEY LET ANDRE RISON GO, HE.
REALLY, AS TOM COUGHLIN SAID, WAS TORRID. THIRD AND 6. AND IT IS TO SMITH. HE STEPS OUT OF BOUNDS WITH A.
FIRST DOWN. >> HOW NICE OF YOU TO SET THAT. UP FOR THEM, DICKY. >> [ LAUGHS ] WELL, THE ONE THING JIMMY SMITH.
HAS -- SPEED INSIDE. YOU CAN SEE HIM ON THE OUTSIDE. AND LOOK AT THE RESPECT HE GETS. GOOD JOB OF SELLING THE ROUTE UP.
THE FIELD. MAKES RAY CROCKETT TURN. THAT MAKES IT AN EASY THROW FOR. MARK BRUNELL.
>> 11 YARDS AND THE FIRST. FIRST DOWN FOR THE JAGUARS, TRAILING 12-0 AS WE START THIS. SECOND QUARTER. TOMMY ROY, OUR PRODUCER, JOHN GONZALES, OUR DIRECTOR, FROM DENVER, AS NATRONE MEANS.
SEES A HOLE, RUNNING THROUGH. TACKLES TO THE DENVER 46-YARD. LINE. AND THAT'LL GET THE BEAT PULSING.
A BIT HIGHER IN JACKSONVILLE. >> WHAT A GREAT BLOCK AT THE. LINE OF SCRIMMAGE BY BROWN AND. BOSELLI, THE TACKLE AND THE.
TIGHT END. RIGHT HERE, WATCH THIS ON. ALFRED WILLIAMS. THEY JUST TAKE HIM AND KICK HIM.
TO THE OUTSIDE, SEAL IT OFF. NATRONE MEANS GOES INSIDE. THAT'S A HOLE, FOLKS. >> 18-YARD PRODUCTION FOR MEANS, ONLY 5'10" AND 240 POUNDS.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] FIRST TIME JACKSONVILLE IN. DENVER TERRITORY. BRUNELL. SECONDARY RECEIVER IS THE TIGHT.
END, PETE MITCHELL, AND MITCHELL. IS TO THE 39. ALLEN ALDRIDGE THE TACKLER, ALONG WITH JOHN MOBLEY. >> GOOD JOB BY THE JACKSONVILLE.
OFFENSIVE LINE. WATCH TONY BOSELLI ON THE. OUTSIDE. DID SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB LAST.
WEEK AGAINST BRUCE SMITH. >> ALFRED WILLIAMS' ROLE TODAY. IS TO GET UPFIELD TO THE. OUTSIDE.
>> THEY GIVE TO MEANS, AND MEANS. FIGHTS HIS WAY TO THE 35-YARD. LINE, WHERE IT'LL BE ANOTHER. FIRST DOWN FOR THE JAGUARS.
AND BOSELLI, ALONG WITH ALL OF. HIS TALENTS, AND COUGHLIN RAVING. ABOUT HIS WORKOUT AND THE GREAT. FEET HE HAS, ALONG WITH THOSE.
HANDS, ONLY ALLOWED 3 SACKS THIS. YEAR. CHAD BROWN GOT HIM FOR ONE, BUT. HE SHUT OUT SOME PRETTY GOOD.
PLAYERS -- BROCK, O'NEAL, JOHNSON, PLEASANT. MICHAEL McCRARY ALSO. CHAD BROWN HAD A COUPLE. ONLY 3 SACKS ALLOWED ALL YEAR AS.
JAMES STEWART GIVES. NATRONE MEANS A BREATHER AND ON. FIRST DOWN TAKES IT TO THE. 30-YARD LINE.
BOSELLI, FROM SOUTHERN. CALIFORNIA, THE SECOND PLAYER. PICKED A YEAR AGO AND THE. HIGHEST LINEMAN PICKED SINCE.
TONY MANDARICH BY GREEN BAY. 17 GAMES PLAYED, ONLY 3 SACKS. ALLOWED -- HOW GOOD IS THAT, PHIL SIMMS? >> WELL, THAT'S BETTER THAN. GOOD.
THAT'S REAL GOOD. BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS, TOO, WHY IT'S SO GOOD, DICK -- HE'S. BLOCKING FOR A RUNNING. QUARTERBACK, WHICH USUALLY.
DRIVES THE SACK STATS UP AGAINST. THESE OFFENSIVE LINEMEN. >> 47 OTHER SACKS WENT TO. TEAMMATES, BUT ONLY 3 CHARGED TO.
BOSELLI. THROW AND A GOOD CATCH BY. PETE MITCHELL, THE TIGHT END. FROM BOSTON COLLEGE.
BUT HE DOESN'T GET ANYTHING OUT. OF IT -- ONLY A YARD TO THE 29. WELL-COVERED BY TYRONE BRAXTON. >> THERE'S A GUY -- LET'S JUST.
MENTION ONE MORE TIME. WE DID IT A FEW WEEKS AGO. TYRONE BRAXTON -- THERE'S JUST. NO REASON WHY THIS MAN IS NOT IN.
THE PRO BOWL. IT'S A SHAME. HE TIED THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE WITH.
9 INTERCEPTIONS AND LOOK WHAT. TYRONE BRAXTON HERE. HERE'S A CATCH OF THE TIGHT END. MITCHELL, AND WATCH WHAT HE GETS.
AFTER IT. ONE YARD. TYRONE BRAXTON. >> AND AT 185, TO CALL HIM A.
STRONG SAFETY IS A MISNOMER. HE LAUGHS ABOUT IT. STEVE ATWATER IS 217. HE'S THE FREE SAFETY.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] ON THIRD AND 4. BRUNELL PROTECTED WELL. GUNS IT. INCOMPLETE TO MITCHELL.
RIGHT THROUGH HIS HANDS, AND HE. MAY HAVE BEEN LOOKING RIGHT INTO. THE SUN. >> I THINK HE WAS, 'CAUSE.
PETE MITCHELL, HE DOES NOT DROP. MANY PASSES, AND THAT'S WHY HE'S. IN THERE, FOR HIS PASS-CATCHING. ABILITY.
AND WHEN HE TURNS, AND HE LOOKS. FOR THIS FOOTBALL, IT IS RIGHT. IN THE SUN. AND MARK BRUNELL PUTS IT RIGHT.
ON THE MONEY. >> YEAH, HE LOOKED AS IF HE WAS. FISHING FOR THAT ONE. SO, MIKE HOLLIS COMES ON.
THIS WILL BE A LONG FIELD-GOAL. TRY FOR JACKSONVILLE, FROM THE. 36, A 46-YARD ATTEMPT. YOU SEE HE HAD A 53-YARDER.
EARLIER THIS YEAR. MISSED ONLY 6 TIMES. YOUNG GUNNER FROM IDAHO GETS A. GOOD BOOT INTO THIS ONE.
IT IS GOOD! WELL INTO THE SCREEN, AND. JACKSONVILLE ON THE BOARD. EARLIER TODAY, GREEN BAY. DEFEATED SAN FRANCISCO, 35-14.
DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM UP IN. WISCONSIN, LOOKING INTO THE SUN. RAINED THROUGHOUT THAT ONE, AND. THAT WAS THE ANGLE FROM WHICH.
MITCHELL TRIED TO CATCH THE BALL. FROM BRUNELL. VAUGHN HEBRON AT THE 6. 25, 30, AND TO THE 32 GOES.
HEBRON. DENVER, EARLY HERE IN THE SECOND. QUARTER. JOHN ELWAY, PERFECT ON THE LAST.
DENVER DRIVE EXCEPT FOR THE. 2-POINT TRY. UNDERNEATH IT GOES TO CARSWELL, THE TIGHT END, ACROSS THE 40. FUMBLED THE BALL! AND THE SCRAMBLE AND WELL, THEY.
SAY DENVER WAS DOWN BY CONTACT. McMANUS AND HARDY REACHING FOR. THE FOOTBALL. >> YOU HAVE THE DEFENSIVE END, CLYDE SIMMONS, OVER THE.
TIGHT END, PHIL. HE'S REALLY IN A CATCH-22. THERE'S NOTHING HE COULD DO. EXCEPT LET THE TIGHT END GO, AND.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE. LINEBACKER THAT'S PICKING IT UP. NOW, THE BALL IS LOOSE, BUT HE. ENDS UP -- NOBODY'S GOING FOR.
THE BALL. THEY DON'T SEE IT BECAUSE IT'S. UNDERNEATH HIM. HE GETS IT BACK.
>> OH, THAT WAS QUICK THINKING. BY CARSWELL AND FORTUNATE THE. BALL WAS THERE WITHIN HIS REACH. FIRST DOWN ON THE PLAY.
TERRELL DAVIS PUSHED BACK INTO. THE BACKFIELD, AND A FLAG DOWN. AS THEY FLY FROM ALL DIRECTIONS, TWO BACK IN THE BACKFIELD AND. ONE FROM DEEP DOWNFIELD, THROWN.
BY THE BACK JUDGE. >> CARSWELL, NUMBER 89, TIGHT END, HOLDING. >> YOU KNOW, WE DON'T MAKE THE. POINT OFTEN ENOUGH THAT WHEN.
THERE IS THAT HOLDING CALL, IT'S. OFTEN BECAUSE THE OTHER PLAYER. MADE SUCH A GOOD PLAY, YOU HAD. TO HOLD HIM TO STOP HIM.
>> HOLDING DURING THE RUN. >> YOU GOT CLYDE SIMMONS, WHO'S. COMING UPFIELD. >> 10 YARDS, STILL FIRST DOWN.
>> AGAIN, YOU HAVE CLYDE SIMMONS. COMING UPFIELD, DICK, AND HE'S. GONNA GET TO THE RUNNER. AND WHAT THE TIGHT END IS DOING.
RIGHT HERE IS JUST TRYING TO. SAVE THE RUNNER. WATCH THIS. YOU SEE CLYDE SIMMONS.
HE CONTROLS THE TIGHT END, CARSWELL. NOW HE'S GETTING READY TO THROW, AND HE CAN'T THROW HIM BECAUSE. CARSWELL'S GOT HIM BY THE WAIST. >> SO, THE PENALTY TAKES IT BACK.
TO THE 32-YARD LINE, AND ELWAY. DROPS BACK INTO THE SHOTGUN. THEY COME WITH FOUR. ELWAY DUMPS IT TO DAVIS.
DAVIS TO THE 35, AND THAT'S ALL, AS THREE JAGUARS, LED BY. EDDIE ROBINSON, THERE TO BRING. HIM DOWN. >> PHIL, YOU KNOW, WE TALKED TO.
JACKSONVILLE ABOUT THIS. OFFENSIVE LINE OF DENVER'S. NOW, THEY'RE OLDER GUYS, AND. THEY'RE NOT GONNA LIKE ME SAYING.
THAT. THEY ONLY HAVE ONE GUY IN THE. 20S. THAT'S THE CENTER.
BUT THEY MIX SO WELL TOGETHER. THEY ARE JUST LIKE -- WHAT DID. THEY SAY? THEY'RE LIKE A PUZZLE, AND THEY. JUST FIT PERFECTLY, ALL FIVE OF.
THEM. >> WELL, THAT'S THE KEY, AND. YOU'VE GOT TO GIVE ALEX GIBBS, THE OFFENSIVE LINE COACH. HE BRINGS THEM TOGETHER.
HE WANTS THEM TO KNOW, "IT'S. IMPORTANT WE DO WELL AS A. GROUP." AND THEY DO THAT. >> SECOND AND 17, DIRECT SNAP TO.
DAVIS. HE BREAKS A TACKLE AT THE LINE. OF SCRIMMAGE. NOW HE HAS 5, 10, 13, 14.
MICKEY WASHINGTON FINALLY. BROUGHT HIM DOWN. THEY HAD DAVIS STOPPED RIGHT AT. THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.
>> TONY BRACKENS, I THINK, NUMBER 90, WAS THE GUY THAT HAD. HIM STOPPED, AND HE DOESN'T HOLD. ON. BRACKENS IS AT THE END OF THE.
LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. AND I THINK THIS IS HIM. HE COMES INSIDE, BAM, AND HE. HITS HIM.
BUT TERRELL DAVIS JUST BOUNCES. BACK OUTSIDE. WHAT A GREAT RUN. >> BRACKENS, NUMBER 90, NOBODY.
BLOCKING HIM. DOES A GOOD JOB. DIAGNOSES THE PLAY. COMES INSIDE.
BUT YOU SEE TERRELL DAVIS' STRENGTH AND THEN THE SPEED TO. GET OUTSIDE AND MAKE IT A. POSITIVE PLAY. >> SO, INSTEAD OF THIRD AND 17, IT'S THIRD AND 2.
ELWAY WITH THAT HARD COUNT. THROWS. INCOMPLETE. ANTHONY MILLER AND TRAVIS DAVIS.
DAVIS ABLE TO KNOCK IT AWAY, AND. THE PUNTING TEAM ON FOR DENVER. >> TRAVIS DAVIS. JOHN ELWAY GETS AWAY WITH ONE.
THAT TIME. HE IS FREE. HE'S CALLED THE ROVER. HE'S UP IN THE LINE OF.
SCRIMMAGE. ALL HE'S GONNA DO IS JUST DROP. BACK IN THE MIDDLE AND LOOK FOR. ANY CROSSING ROUTES.
ELWAY DOES NOT SEE HIM. TRAVIS DAVIS JUST A LITTLE BIT. LATE BREAKING ON THE FOOTBALL. SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN.
INTERCEPTION. >> ON COMES TOM ROUEN, WITH. CHRIS HUDSON PERCHED AT THE 10. BEAUTIFUL, HIGH SPIRAL.
LANDS IN THE END ZONE. TOUCHBACK FOR THE JAGUARS. AND NOW MARK BRUNELL. HE AND BILLY JOE HOBERT SHARING.
GREAT YEARS AT THE. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. AS A KID, HE WAS A BETTER. PITCHER, A LEFT-HANDED PITCHER, COACHED BY HIS DAD IN.
SANTA MARIA, CALIFORNIA. STARTS AT THE 20. PLAY-ACTION. ALFRED WILLIAMS CAN'T GET HIM.
THIS IS WHAT MAKES HIM SO TOUGH, A LA STEVE YOUNG, BUT HE HAS TO. TAKE THE LOSS BACK AT THE. 17-YARD LINE. >> WELL, ALFRED WILLIAMS TOLD US.
YESTERDAY, "I CANNOT LET. MARK BRUNELL GET OUTSIDE." HE DOES A GOOD JOB. BUT I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. AGAIN, FIRST TIME YOU SEE IT, HE.
GOES, "OH, THIS GUY'S A LITTLE. QUICKER AND FASTER THAN I EVEN. ANTICIPATED." AND MARK BRUNELL -- BUT THE GOOD. THING IS, EVERYBODY COVERED.
DOWN THE FIELD. DIDN'T GIVE UP A BIG PLAY. >> THE ONE THING ALFRED JUST. LEARNED ON THAT PLAY THERE -- "IF I'M GONNA BE OUTSIDE ON.
BRUNELL, WHAT I HAVE TO DO IS. ONCE I GET BY BOSELLI, I'VE GOT. TO GET MYSELF UNDER CONTROL. OTHERWISE, I'M NOT GONNA GET A.
HAND ON THIS GUY." >> THAT WAS RULED A SACK. IT WOULD GO TO ALDRIDGE, WHO WAS. THE CLOSEST MAN TO THE PLAY. [ CROWD CHEERS ] SECOND AND 14.
TIME-OUT, BRUNELL. JAMES "JUMPY" GEATHERS, 79, COMES INTO THAT DEFENSIVE LINE. FOR THE BRONCOS. 5 SACKS THIS YEAR, AND HE'S GOT.
THAT INCREDIBLE FORKLIFT MOVE. HE'S SO STRONG. SECOND AND 14. THROW IN THE FLAT.
AND JACKSON, WILL JACKSON, TACKLED AFTER A YARD, 2-YARD. GAIN, BY RAY CROCKETT. >> WHAT A GREAT JOB BY. RAY CROCKETT BECAUSE WHAT HE.
DOES IS HE FORGETS ALL ABOUT. GOES RIGHT BY THE BLOCKER ON THE. OUTSIDE -- NOT EVEN CONCERNED. WITH HIM.
"MY JOB IS TO GET TO THE GUY. THAT'S CATCHING THE BALL." AND RAY CROCKETT MAKES A GREAT. PLAY. >> GONNA GIVE HIM A GOOD SPOT, OUT TO THE 20, WHERE IT'LL BE.
THIRD AND 10. HERE IT IS. JACKSON, WHOSE BROTHER, TERRY JACKSON, ON THE. UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, A.
NATIONAL CHAMPION. SCORED A TOUCHDOWN A COUPLE. NIGHTS AGO. HIS DAD, WILLIE JACKSON SR., WAS.
THE FIRST-EVER BLACK TO PLAY AT. THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA. BRUNELL UNDER HEAVY TROUBLE. IT'S INTERCEPTED! TORY JAMES AT THE 25, THE 20, AND IT'S WHISTLED DEAD, AS A.
FLAG GOES DOWN. AND JAMES MAY HAVE BEEN GUILTY. OF A FOUL IN ORDER TO PICK OFF. THAT BALL, AS WILLIAMS AND.
CADREZ WERE PRESSURING BRUNELL. >> THEY'RE GONNA CALL PASS. INTERFERENCE ON THE PLAY. [ CROWD BOOS ] REMEMBER ONE THING.
YOU GOT TORY JAMES THERE. REMEMBER ONE THING. WHEN THAT BALL IS THROWN, BOTH. GUYS HAVE A RIGHT TO THE BALL.
NOW, THE QUESTION IS, YOU CAN'T. IMPEDE THE OFFENSIVE GUY'S. RIGHT. >> PASS INTERFERENCE, NUMBER 20 ON THE DEFENSE.
FIRST DOWN! >> [ CHUCKLES ] [ As Cashion ] FIRST DOWN! [ Normal voice ] ALL RIGHT, RED. HERE IT IS. WATCH THIS. THERE'S THE BUMPING THERE.
THEY'RE NOT CALLING IT HERE. HERE'S WHERE THEY'RE GONNA CALL. IT. WATCH JAMES.
HE GOES THROUGH. HE HITS HIM WITH HIS ARM AND. BOUNCES HIM OFF THE BALL. YOU DON'T LIKE THE CALL.
>> IT'S A TERRIBLE CALL. YOU'RE PENALIZING THE. DEFENSIVE BACK FOR BEING THE. AGGRESSOR AND GETTING TO THE.
FOOTBALL BEFORE THE. WIDE RECEIVER DID. >> A BREAK FOR THE JAGUARS, IT. WOULD APPEAR.
FIRST DOWN AT THE 25. MEANS. ONLY 2 ON THE PLAY. ALDRIDGE AND MOBLEY THERE TO.
MAKE THE STOP. >> JUST GOING BACK TO THE PASS. INTERFERENCE REAL QUICK -- IT. WOULD ONLY BE A PENALTY IF HE.
STOPPED THE WIDE RECEIVER FROM. GETTING TO THE BALL. HE DIDN'T IMPEDE THE PROGRESS. OF THE WIDE RECEIVER.
HE JUST REACTED BETTER TO THE. FOOTBALL WHEN IT WAS THROWN. >> SECOND DOWN -- >> LIKE I SAID AT THE BEGINNING. BOTH GUYS HAVE THE RIGHT TO GET.
TO IT. SORRY, DICK. >> MEANS, THE LONE RUNNING BACK. McCARDELL -- SAYS IT'S NOT.
McCARDELL, BUT McCAR-DELL -- TO. THE LEFT. SMITH TO THE RIGHT. TIGHT END MITCHELL IN MOTION.
HERE COMES ROMANOWSKI, BUT HE. CAN'T GET BRUNELL. NOW HE CHASES AFTER. BRUNELL GONNA RUN.
AND PUSHED OUT OF BOUNDS BY. MAA TANUVASA. THIS YOUNG GUY FROM HAWAII. QUIETLY HAD A VERY GOOD YEAR, NUMBER 98.
HE HAD 5 SACKS. GREW UP AND PLAYED IN HAWAII. FIRST NAME MEANS "ROCK" IN. SAMOAN.
IS THAT PERFECT? >> YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD NAME FOR. A DEFENSIVE LINEMAN, BUT BRUNELL. AGAIN -- ROMANOWSKI A FREE SHOT. ON HIM.
JUST BARELY GETS A HAND ON HIM, BUT DOWN THE FIELD THERE IS. NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE FOOTBALL. THE BRONCOS DOING AN EXCELLENT. JOB OF COVERING THE RECEIVERS.
ONCE BRUNELL BREAKS THE POCKET. >> THESE GUYS GOT TO UNDERSTAND. SOMETHING, PHIL. ONCE THEY GET BACK THERE NEAR.
BRUNELL, THEY'VE GOT TO SLOW IT. DOWN A LITTLE BIT. BREAK THE RUSH DOWN. >> CLOSER TO 6 THAN 5 FOR.
BRUNELL. SCRAMBLES AGAIN. NOW HE THROWS. MEANS GOT AWAY WITH A PUSH-OFF.
AT THE 41-YARD LINE BUT NO FLAG. DOWN, AS ROMANOWSKI WAS. COVERING. >> IT DID LOOK LIKE ROMANOWSKI.
LOOKING BACK IN THE SUN. MISJUDGED THE BALL. AND MEANS DID NOT. >> I THINK HE MISJUDGED HIS.
JUMP. >> [ LAUGHS ] >> EITHER THAT OR HE THOUGHT HE. WAS MICHAEL JORDAN AND HE WAS. GONNA HANG IN THE AIR FOR A.
COUPLE MINUTES. BUT WATCH BILL ROMANOWSKI JUST. GETS CAUGHT OFF BALANCE, MISTIMES IT. IT WAS A NICE TOUCH PASS BY.
MARK BRUNELL. IT HANGS IN THE AIR, AND NATRONE. DOING A GOOD JOB OF GOING UP. HEY, HE'S GOT SUNGLASSES ON THAT.
SHIELD. MADE IT EASIER FOR HIM. >> THOSE ARE THE ONLY SUNGLASSES. ALLOWED BY THE JACKSONVILLE.
PLAYERS -- ONE OF COUGHLIN'S. RULES. 29 YARDS ON THE PLAY. BRUNELL OFF PLAY-ACTION.
CHASED AND FINALLY CAUGHT FROM. BEHIND BY HARALD HASSELBACH, WHO. PLAYED WITH BRUNELL AT THE. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON.
>> I TELL YOU WHAT I LIKE ABOUT. THIS TEAM. THEY JUST DON'T GIVE UP, JACKSONVILLE. THEY KEEP COMING.
THEY DID IT TO BUFFALO A WEEK. AGO. HERE'S TONY BOSELLI BLOCKING. HERE.
HE LOOKS BACK TO THE OUTSIDE. >> HE'S GOT JEFF ROBINSON, NUMBER 94, ON HIM. >> THAT'S A TAKEDOWN. >> YOU KNOW, BOSELLI, HE'S ONE.
OF THOSE LINEMEN. HE'S NOT HAPPY JUST BLOCKING. YOU. HE WANTS TO TAKE YOU DOWN, EMBARRASS YOU, ALL THOSE THINGS.
HE'S THE PERFECT LEFT TACKLE TO. HAVE IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE, 'CAUSE HE TAKES PRIDE IN. PROTECTING HIS QUARTERBACK.
>> SECOND AND 7, AS. JAMES STEWART IN, AND HE HAS IT. ON THE DRAW. STEWART, WHO PLAYED AT.
TENNESSEE, DOESN'T GET MUCH. TACKLED FORWARD TO THE 35-YARD. LINE BY MICHAEL DEAN PERRY AND. JOHN MOBLEY.
>> THE ONE THING THAT... TAKE A LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCES. OF THE OFFENSIVE LINE OF THE. JAGUARS AGAINST DENVER'S.
DEFENSIVE FRONT. PAUL, IF I MIGHT, I THINK IT'S. 35-POUND DIFFERENCE. >> WELL, THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T.
TRY TO RUN DRAWS AGAINST THESE. GUYS, BECAUSE IF YOU GIVE THESE. GUYS A CHANCE TO RUN AROUND YOU, THEY'RE GONNA GET THERE. THEY'RE MUCH QUICKER.
SO, YOU GOT TO RUN DIRECTLY AT. THEM. >> THREE WIDE RECEIVERS RIGHT, AS BRUNELL OPERATES FROM THE. SHOTGUN.
AND HERE COMES ROMANOWSKI. ELUDES HIM AND GUNS COMPLETE. IT IS WILLIE JACKSON FOR A FIRST. DOWN INSIDE THE 20.
>> I KEEP TELLING YOU, WHEN YOU. GET TO BRUNELL, YOU'VE GOT TO. BREAK DOWN. YOU'VE GOT TO SLOW IT DOWN.
ROMANOWSKI COMES UP THE MIDDLE, NOT A SOUL NEAR HIM, AND ALL. BRUNELL DOES IS STEP ASIDE. WATCH THIS. HERE COMES ROMANOWSKI, STRAIGHT.
UP THE MIDDLE. WATCH WHAT BRUNELL DOES. BOOM. BACK TO THE OUTSIDE.
>> I KNOW. YOU WANT TO BREAK DOWN, BUT I'M. SURE THEY'RE THINKING, "THIS GUY. IS QUICK.
HE'S FAST." AND ROMANOWSKI COMING STRAIGHT. AT HIM, HE CAN GO EITHER WAY. >> I UNDERSTAND THAT. I'M JUST SAYING, YOU'VE GOT TO.
BREAK YOURSELF DOWN AND GET IN. HIS FACE AND DON'T LET HIM JUKE. YOU. >> SO, THE JAGUARS, TRAILING.
ONLY 12-3 DEEP IN DENVER. TERRITORY. NATRONE MEANS BANGING INSIDE THE. 10-YARD LINE, AND YOU COULD HEAR.
THE HELMETS CRACK ON THAT ONE IN. THE COLLISION. >> NOW THERE'S A POINT. TOM COUGHLIN MADE TO US.
YESTERDAY, TALKING ABOUT. DENVER'S RUN DEFENSE. IT RANKS VERY HIGH, BUT. AVERAGE YARDS PER RUSH, IT'S NOT.
SO GOOD. IT'S 18th IN THE LEAGUE BECAUSE. THEY'RE ALWAYS AHEAD. SO, TEAMS DO NOT HAVE THE.
PATIENCE TO STAY WITH THE. RUNNING GAME. SO, JACKSONVILLE, THEY SHOULD. HAVE SOME SUCCESS INSIDE.
>> WELL, ONE OTHER THING WE. SAID, TOO. HE SAID, "WE COULD BEAT THIS. TEAM IF WE DON'T TURN IT OVER." >> SECOND AND 3 FROM THE 9.
MEANS AGAIN. STEPS AWAY FROM A TACKLE, AND. MEANS WILL SCORE! NATRONE, PICKING UP FROM HIS. 175-YARD EFFORT OF A WEEK AGO, GETS 8 MORE ON THAT.
HAS 58 YARDS RUSHING IN THIS. OPENING HALF, AND JACKSONVILLE. IS BACK IN THE GAME. >> WELL, JUST LIKE A PASSING.
QUARTERBACK, KEEP HIM IN THE. POCKET. THE DEFENSE HAS TO DO THE SAME. THING.
STAY IN YOUR LANES, BE. DISCIPLINED. DENVER WAS NOT THAT TIME. THEY OVERPURSUED.
AND NATRONE -- HEY, LAST WEEK, THIS WEEK. A LITTLE PATIENCE, BREAKS IT. OUTSIDE. THERE'S NOBODY THERE.
>> MIKE HOLLIS FOR THE EXTRA. POINT. BARKER, THE PUNTER, HOLDS, AND. HOLLIS CONNECTS.
AND DENVER'S LEAD REDUCED TO 2. NATRONE MEANS -- BOBBY BEATHARD. OF THE CHARGERS SET HIM FREE. EARLIER THIS YEAR.
NOT A PLACE FOR HIM IN THE. CHARGER CAMP AND PICKED UP BY. JACKSONVILLE, AND TOM COUGHLIN. SAID A MODEL STUDENT AND.
PERFORMER. DOWN IT COMES TO HEBRON. AND VAUGHN HEBRON OF THE BRONCOS. TO THE FAR SIDELINES.
FINALLY RUNS OUT OF ROOM AS HE. TURNS ON THE JETS, KNOCKED OUT. AT THE 41-YARD LINE BY. MIKE HOLLIS.
THAT LAST DRIVE FOR. JACKSONVILLE -- 80 YARDS IN. 10 PLAYS. BOTH THEIR DRIVES HAVE BEEN.
10 PLAYS, AND HERE WAS A. CRITICAL CALL AND PLAY. TORY JAMES WEDGING HIS WAY FOR. THE BALL INTERCEPTS.
NOT RULED AN INTERCEPTION. RULED INTERFERENCE. KEPT THE DRIVE ALIVE -- A KEY, KEY PLAY. MIKE SHANAHAN APPARENTLY HAS.
BEEN JAWING WITH THE OFFICIALS. ON THE SIDELINE SINCE. 12-10 DENVER AS WE APPROACH THE. 2:00 WARNING, FIRST HALF.
THIS IS WHERE ELWAY'S AT HIS. BEST. IT-- OH, MY! ALMOST INTERCEPTED BY. AARON BEASLEY.
THAT WAS RIGHT IN HIS MITTS AS. HE MADE THE MOVE IN FRONT OF. McCAFFREY. >> AARON BEASLEY SET ON THE PLAY.
THE WHOLE TIME. HE SEES JOHN ELWAY. HE READ ED McCAFFREY'S ROUTE. AND LOOK AT THE BREAK.
HE STUMBLES. OTHERWISE, HE WOULD HAVE CAUGHT. THIS IN FULL STRIDE. AND JOHN ELWAY -- >> HE WAS GETTING READY TO MAKE.
THE TACKLE. >> I KNOW THAT MOVE. I KNOW THAT MOVE. THROW IT AND RUN AND TRY TO MAKE.
THE TACKLE. >> BEASLEY, THE ROOKIE FROM. WEST VIRGINIA, HAD JUST ONE. INTERCEPTION IN HIS FIRST YEAR.
IN THE BIGS. SECOND AND 10. ELWAY WITH A SECOND LOOK. NOW HE DOES A LITTLE SCRAMBLING.
CLYDE SIMMONS CAN'T GET HIM. ELWAY, FIRST DOWN AT THE 47 OF. JACKSONVILLE. EDDIE ROBINSON FINALLY MADE THE.
TACKLE, AND TERRELL DAVIS A NICE. JOB WITH A BLOCK. >> BOY, TERRELL DAVIS REALLY. DOES MAKE A NICE BLOCK.
HE ENABLES JOHN ELWAY TO PICK UP. THE FIRST DOWN. AS ELWAY STARTS TO SCRAMBLE, HE'S LOOKING. THIS THING BREAKS DOWN RIGHT AT.
THE BEGINNING. CLYDE SIMMONS COMES IN. WATCH ELWAY AND NUMBER 30 IS. TERRELL DAVIS ON THE LEFT OF.
YOUR SCREEN. HERE HE COMES IN. HE MAKES THE BLOCK ON McMANUS, RIGHT THERE, AND IT ENABLES. JOHN ELWAY TO GET THE FIRST.
DOWN. >> THAT'S 3 SCRAMBLES FOR. ELWAY, 30 YARDS, TO KEEP DRIVES. ALIVE.
NOW FIRST DOWN. LOOKING, LOOKING, AND THROWING. LONG. TOO LONG FOR ANTHONY MILLER.
MICKEY WASHINGTON ON HIM, AND. THAT TAKES US TO THE 2:00 WARNING. BEEN TEEING IT UP TO THAT BIG. GUY, AND HE LIKES, SO MANY NFL.
PLAYERS, TO HIT THE FAIRWAYS. DENVER AND ELWAY, LEADING, 12-10. SECOND DOWN AT THE JACKSONVILLE. 47.
ELWAY BEING CHASED BY. TONY BRACKENS. AND BRACKENS GETS HIM. AND ELWAY FORTUNATE HE DIDN'T.
FUMBLE, DOWN AT THE 46-YARD. LINE, A GAIN OF A YARD. SO, NO SACK. AND THIS YOUNG MAN FROM TEXAS.
HAS BEEN QUITE A FIND. >> WELL, WHEN YOU LOOK AT. BRACKENS, THOUGH, THERE'S JUST. NO QUIT.
WATCH HIM. HE'S BLOCKED AT THE LINE OF. SCRIMMAGE BY ZIMMERMAN THERE, AND THEN HE JUST KEEPS GOING. AFTER ELWAY.
AND LOOK WHAT HE DOES. NOW HE GOES FOR THE BALL. THAT'S HEADS-UP FOOTBALL. >> NO SACK, A GAIN OF 1 FOR.
ELWAY. SO, IT'S THIRD DOWN AND 9. LOOK AT BRACKENS IN HIS ROOKIE. YEAR.
HE'S THE YOUNGEST PLAYER ON THE. FIELD. HE JUST TURNED 22. TACKLES FOR LOSS, 5 FORCED.
FUMBLES, AND YOU CAN SEE WHY, THE WAY HE WENT AFTER ELWAY ON. THAT LAST CHARGE. TIME-OUT WITH 1:20 LEFT, AND THE. TIME-OUT TAKEN BY JACKSONVILLE.
BRACKENS, WHILE WE HAVE A. MOMENT, A MOST INTERESTING YOUNG. MAN. I LIKE WHAT HE SAID YESTERDAY.
HE SAID, "MY FATHER IS A. RANCHER." THEY HAVE AN 800-ACRE RANCH. SOUTH OF DALLAS. SAID, "HE MADE ME WORK FOR EVERY.
PENNY. HE TAUGHT ME A WONDERFUL. LESSON." >> WELL, YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE. WAY HE PLAYS.
HE KEEPS HUSTLING. HE'S A HARD WORKER. AND HE ALSO TOLD US. "WHAT'S YOUR GREATEST ATTRIBUTE.
AS A PLAYER?" HE JUST GOES, "SPEED." >> ELWAY, THIRD DOWN, 9. [ WHISTLE BLOWS ] FLAGS DOWN. AND IT APPEARED THAT. BRIAN HABIB MIGHT HAVE PULLED.
BACK PREMATURELY, AND THAT. BRINGS A LITTLE SIGH TO. SHANAHAN. >> BEFORE THE SNAP, FALSE START, NUMBER 75 ON THE OFFENSE.
5 YARDS, STILL THIRD DOWN. >> WE TALKED TO ELWAY YESTERDAY, AND HE MADE SOME STATEMENTS IN. THE PAPER, TOO, THAT THEY. THOUGHT THIS TEAM MAY BE TOO.
ANXIOUS. THERE'S HABIB, NUMBER 75, THAT'S. GONNA BE MOVING BEFORE. THAT'S WHAT THEY CALLED.
BUT ELWAY SAID, "I MAY HAVE TO. PULL THE REINS IN ON THESE. GUYS, DICK, AND CALM THEM DOWN. A LITTLE BIT." I DON'T SEE THAT THEY'RE THAT.
HYPED UP. THEY'VE JUST MADE SOME MISTAKES. >> NOW ELWAY LOOKING AT THIRD. AND 14.
PROTECTION BREAKS DOWN, BUT. ELWAY ON THE SCRAMBLE. THROWS UNDERNEATH FOR. TERRELL DAVIS.
TACKLED AT THE 45, 8 YARDS SHY. OF A FIRST DOWN, AS. KEVIN HARDY MAKES THE PLAY. AND JACKSONVILLE STOPS DENVER.
HERE WITH 1:05 LEFT IN THE HALF, AND THE JAGUARS SPEND THEIR LAST. TIME-OUT WITH 1:05 LEFT, HOPING. THAT THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO. MANUFACTURE A DRIVE, AT LEAST.
FOR A FIELD GOAL. WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING, IF. HALFTIME ENDED WITH. TOM COUGHLIN'S TEAM IN THE LEAD? THIS IS A TEAM THAT DIDN'T WIN 6 IN A ROW BY ACCIDENT.
>> NO, NO. >> YESTERDAY, WE TALKED TO HIM. HE SAID, "I HAD A PLAN TO WIN. THE GAME IN BUFFALO." HE COULD SEE HOW THEY COULD WIN.
IT. SO, I SAID, "WELL, WHAT ABOUT. THIS GAME?" HE GOES, "WELL, I DON'T KNOW. >> [ LAUGHS ] >> HE DIDN'T KNOW.
HE SAYS, "I JUST HOPE THAT. SOME WAY WE GET OUT THERE, MAKE. SOME PLAYS. I HOPE WE FIND A WAY TO GET IT.
DONE," BECAUSE I DON'T THINK HE. COULD REALLY SPOT A WEAKNESS IN. THE DENVER TEAM. HE WAS JUST HOPING HIS GUYS.
WOULD RISE TO THE OCCASION AND. SOME GUYS MAKE SOME BIG PLAYS. AND THEIR QUARTERBACK HAS BEEN. THE BIGGEST SO FAR.
MARK BRUNELL IS KEEPING THIS. TEAM IN THE GAME. >> BY ELUDING THE PRESSURE AND. MAKING PLAYS.
ROUEN TO PUNT TO CHRIS HUDSON. OFF THE SIDE OF THE FOOT, DYING. SPIRAL, AND HUDSON FAIR-CATCHES. IT RIGHT AT HIS SPOT.
THE 11-YARD LINE THEY'LL GIVE. HIM. AND WITH 57 SECONDS LEFT, MARK BRUNELL TAKES THE FIELD. >> TOM COUGHLIN HAS GOTTEN SO.
MUCH CRITICISM ABOUT BEING A. DISCIPLINARIAN, BUT WHEN YOU. LOOK AT THESE GUYS, YOU CAN SEE. HIS COACHING IN THIS TEAM.
THEY ARE TRULY DISCIPLINED. PLAYERS. THEY HAVE NOT GOTTEN AWAY FROM. THEIR GAME PLAN.
THEY'RE DOING THE THINGS THAT. THEY CAME INTO THIS GAME TO DO, AND THEY'RE WITHIN 2 POINTS OF. THE BRONCOS NOW. >> AND THUS FAR, NO MISTAKES, AND THAT WAS A CONCERN OF.
COUGHLIN, ESPECIALLY BRUNELL, WHO HAS THROWN SOME TOUGH. INTERCEPTIONS. HERE COMES NATRONE MEANS, AND. MEANS, WITH A RUNNING START, ALL.
THE WAY OUT TO THE 35-YARD LINE. THEY'RE GONNA SPOT HIS KNEE DOWN. 33. ALDRIDGE AND BRAXTON MAKE THE.
TACKLE. JACKSONVILLE WITH NO TIME-OUTS, AND BRUNELL HAS TO SHOUT OUT THE. CALL TO HIS WIDE RECEIVER AS HE. DROPS BACK IN THE SHOTGUN WITH.
36 SECONDS. SLIPS, SCRAMBLES. THROWS DOWNFIELD. WIDE OPEN IS JIMMY SMITH, AND.
SMITH IS OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE. DENVER 24. >> JACKSONVILLE CALLED THE. TIME-OUT BEFORE DENVER PUNTED.
FOR THE REASON WHY? TAKE A CHANCE WITH A RUN. GET IN POSITION TO MAKE. SOMETHING HAPPEN. THE RUN HAPPENS.
AND WATCH JIMMY SMITH AT THE TOP. OF YOUR SCREEN. BRUNELL GETS OUT OF THE POCKET, MAKES THE CORNER COME UP. NOBODY BACK THERE TO COVER THE.
WIDE RECEIVER. THOSE ARE THE KIND OF THINGS. THAT HAPPEN WITH A SCRAMBLING. QUARTERBACK.
THE DEFENSE BREAKS DOWN. >> AND THIS IS WHAT THE. DEFENSIVE SECONDARY COACHES. TELL YOU.
THEY SAY, "WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO. WITH A GUY LIKE BRUNELL -- YOU. MUST BE PATIENT. STAY WITH YOUR MAN.
DON'T THINK YOU'RE GONNA COME UP. AND MAKE THE PLAY ON BRUNELL. GET BACK AND STAY WITH YOUR MAN. BE DISCIPLINED." >> THEY'RE IN FIELD-GOAL RANGE.
AFTER THAT 43-YARD PLAY, AND. SMITH CAN'T HANDLE THAT ONE. COVERED BY LIONEL WASHINGTON. LIONEL WASHINGTON AT THAT CORNER.
TALKS ABOUT HIM RETIRING. HE WENT TO TULANE, IS FROM. NEW ORLEANS, AND SAID -- LIONEL, NUMBER 48 FOR THE. BRONCOS -- "IF I CAN GET TO THE.
SUPER BOWL AND WIN IT IN MY. HOMETOWN, THAT MIGHT BE A. MESSAGE FOR ME TO THEN HANG IT. UP." >> ONE THING HERE WITH BRUNELL, JUST TAKING A LOOK AT WHAT HE'S.
GOT IN FRONT OF HIM. PHIL, IT'S SECOND DOWN. HE'S GOT 20 SECONDS. HE'S GOT A CHANCE TO GO AT LEAST.
TWICE TO THE END ZONE. >> 20 SECONDS LEFT. YOU DON'T WANT TO GET CAUGHT. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD, THOUGH, WITH NO TIME-OUTS.
BRUNELL... THROWS IT AWAY. McCARDELL WAS THE CLOSEST. RECEIVER.
>> ALL RIGHT, THAT TOOK 6. >> ALFRED WILLIAMS WAS THE MAN. PURSUING BRUNELL. >> GOOD JOB BY ALFRED WILLIAMS.
WE'VE SEEN HIM GET CAUGHT. INSIDE, LET BRUNELL GET OUTSIDE. HE STAYS OUT THERE. BRUNELL WANTS TO BREAK THE.
POCKET, BUT ALFRED WILLIAMS. MAKES HIM THROW IT AWAY. LOOK AT NUMBER 91. JUMPS AND THEN HE'S STILL IN.
GOOD POSITION TO MAKE THE. QUARTERBACK THROW IT AWAY AND. THEN SAYS, "HEY." >> THAT'S A GOOD POINT. IF HE GETS CAUGHT INSIDE, THEN.
BRUNELL HAS A LOT OF ROOM. THIS WILL BE SPOTTED AT THE 32, A 42-YARDER TO GIVE JACKSONVILLE. THE LEAD. MIKE HOLLIS TO KICK.
A KNUCKLER, AND IT IS... GOOD! JACKSONVILLE 13, DENVER 12. REPEAT THAT, PAUL. A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULDN'T BELIEVE.
THAT... >> [ LAUGHS ] >> AND YOU KNOW WHAT? HERE'S A TEAM, JACKSONVILLE, THAT COMES IN. AND, BOY, DON'T YOU LOVE IT? THEY'RE A 14-POINT UNDERDOG. COMING INTO THIS GAME.
NOBODY IN THIS COUNTRY WOULD. GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO WIN THIS. FOOTBALL GAME. WELL, THERE'S ANOTHER 30 MINUTES.
AND 10 SECONDS LEFT TO PLAY, FOLKS. BUT JUST TAKE A LOOK. THIS LITTLE LINE-DRIVE SHOT. RIGHT HERE -- RIGHT DOWN THE.
MIDDLE, AND THEY TAKE THE LEAD. AT 13-12. NOW, WE SAW SOMETHING LIKE THIS. HAPPEN A WEEK AGO AT PITTSBURGH.
INDIANAPOLIS, THEY CAME BACK AND. GOT PITTSBURGH IN THE FIRST. HALF, WENT AHEAD. THERE'S A LONG 30 MINUTES TO GO.
>> WELL, MIKE SHANAHAN TOLD US, "THE WILD CARD, MARK BRUNELL, GOT TO KEEP HIM UNDER CONTROL." THEY HAVE NOT DONE THAT. THAT'S THE BIGGEST REASON BY FAR. THAT DENVER'S LOSING THIS GAME. RIGHT NOW.
>> THE OTHER THING THAT THESE. GUYS HAVE DONE FROM. JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA -- THEY'VE. TAKEN THIS CROWD TOTALLY OUT OF.
THIS BALLGAME. >> WELL, THEY'VE DONE SOMETHING. ELSE. THOSE EARLY JITTERS ON THE ROAD, UNDERDOG TEAM, YOUNG TEAM, FAIRLY INEXPERIENCED PLAYOFF.
THEY DROP BEHIND TWO TOUCHDOWNS, BUT CLYDE SIMMONS, BLOCKING THE. EXTRA POINT, CHANGES IT A LITTLE. BIT BECAUSE THEN THEY HAVE TO GO. FOR 2, DENVER, ON THEIR SECOND.
TOUCHDOWN. DON'T CONVERT. SO, IT'S 12-0, AND IN THE SECOND. QUARTER, ALL THE SCORING BELONGS.
TO JACKSONVILLE, ALL 13 POINTS. GOING TO THE JAGUARS -- TWO. FIELD GOALS AND A TOUCHDOWN. AND THIS YOUNG MAN -- HOW CAN.
YOU NOT THINK OF STEVE YOUNG. WHEN YOU SEE HIM PLAY, THE YOUNG. STEVE YOUNG, QUICK AND. STRONG-ARMED AND CLEVER? HOLLIS WILL JUST SKID ONE DOWN.
THROUGH, HOPING TO CHECK ANY. LONG RETURN. PICKED UP BY THE TIGHT END, BYRON CHAMBERLAIN. TACKLED AT THE 35 WITH 5 SECONDS.
LEFT. DARREN STUDSTILL MADE THE STOP. FOR JACKSONVILLE. >> ONE THING ABOUT, TOO, BRUNELL, PHIL -- THE GUY THREW.
FOR 4,300 YARDS. I MEAN, THOSE WEREN'T GIMMES. THIS GUY CAN REALLY PLAY. THE THING THAT MAKES HIM SO.
GOOD -- HE'S SO MOBILE. >> PAUL, HE'S THE BEST PLAYER ON. THE TEAM. SO, GIVE THE BEST PLAYER THE.
OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE THE PLAYS. AND THAT'S WHAT THIS COACHING. STAFF DOES. YOU'VE GOT TO COMMEND THEM FOR.
IT. HEY, HE DOES A GOOD JOB WITH THE. FOOTBALL. THAT'S WHY THEY KEEP GIVING HIM.
THOSE OPPORTUNITIES. >> NO LONG GAMBLE PLAY BY ELWAY. HE TAKES THE KNEEL-DOWN. THE END OF THE HALF, AND A.
SURPRISING SCORE IN BRIGHT. LIGHTS HERE AT. MILE HIGH STADIUM. MARK BRUNELL AND THE.
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS WITH 13 UNANSWERED POINTS IN THE SECOND. QUARTER, OWN THE LEAD, 13-12. WELCOME BACK TO. MILE HIGH STADIUM IN DENVER.
THE BRONCOS WILL GET THE BALL. FIRST TO OPEN THE SECOND HALF. FIRST, LET'S LOOK AT THE. COORS LIGHT HALFTIME STATISTICS.
VERY EVEN, AS IS THE SCORE. NO TURNOVERS AND JACKSONVILLE. PLAYING BASICALLY DENVER EVEN. WITH A GREAT SECOND QUARTER.
AFTER THE BRONCOS OPENED WITH A. FLOURISH -- A COUPLE OF. TOUCHDOWNS BUT UNABLE TO. CONVERT THE TWO EXTRA POINTS.
>> WELL, I THINK BOTH COACHES. TOLD US THE SAME THING. "IF WE DON'T TURN THE BALL OVER, WE SHOULD WIN THE FOOTBALL. GAME." WELL, NEITHER TEAM HAS TURNED.
THE BALL OVER, AND IT'S A. 1-POINT GAME. >> ANY FEELINGS ABOUT THIS. SECOND HALF? >> WELL, A LOT OF FEELINGS.
IT SOUNDS GREAT -- CONTAIN. MARK BRUNELL. BUT YOU CAN SEE PHYSICALLY FOR. THE PLAYERS, EVEN WHEN THEY GET.
IN POSITION, HE'S SO GOOD, SO. ATHLETIC, THEY CAN'T GET THE JOB. DONE. SO, MAYBE IT'S TIME FOR DENVER.
TO COME UP WITH A NEW PLAN. >> HOLLIS SENDS IT INTO THE. SHADOWS OF THE NORTHERN END OF. MILE HIGH.
VAUGHN HEBRON, 25, 30. SEES A SEAM! ONE MAN TO BEAT, AND HOLLIS IS. ABLE TO TRIP HIM UP. A FLAG IS DOWN.
MIKE HOLLIS DID A GREAT JOB OF. DENYING HEBRON. OF COURSE, THE PENALTY'S GONNA. BRING IT BACK, ANYWAY.
BUT IT APPEARED HEBRON HAD A. TOUCHDOWN UNTIL HOLLIS STUCK HIS. HEAD IN THERE. "COMING BACK," SAYS RED CASHION.
WELL, A COUPLE OF KEY PENALTIES. NOW -- ONE DENYING DENVER AN. INTERCEPTION WHEN THEY LED, 12-0. WOULD HAVE HAD THE BALL AT THE.
25 OF JACKSONVILLE. AND NOW THIS ONE WILL TAKE IT. BACK AND DENY THE BRONCOS FIELD. POSITION.
>> DURING THE RETURN, HOLDING, NUMBER 94, BY THE RECEIVERS. 10 YARDS, FIRST DOWN AND 10. >> JEFF ROBINSON. >> NUMBER 94.
THERE HE IS, RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM. OF THE SCREEN. YOU SEE HIS ARMS WRAPPED AROUND. HE'S HOLDING.
YOU'RE RIGHT OUT IN THE MIDDLE. OF THE FIELD. YOU JUST CAN'T DO IT. >> THAT TAKES IT ALL THE WAY.
BACK TO THE DENVER 17 FOR ELWAY. TERRELL DAVIS, WHO RUSHED FOR. 71 YARDS IN THE FIRST HALF, WITH. HIM.
AND HE GETS THE CALL. DAVIS TO THE 20-YARD LINE, A. GAIN OF 3. LET'S GO DOWN TO JIM GRAY.
>> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU, DICK. I SPOKE TO MIKE SHANAHAN. HE SAID HE'S NOT OVERLY. CONCERNED.
HE SAID, "IF WE PLAY OUR GAME IN. THE SECOND HALF, WE WILL WIN. THIS GAME." VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE. TACKLING.
TOLD HIS GUYS THEY MUST TACKLE. BETTER. AS FOR TRYING TO STOP. MARK BRUNELL, HE SAYS, "WE'VE.
JUST GOT TO TRY AND LIMIT HIS. BIG PLAYS." HE KNOWS THAT HE'S NOT GONNA BE. ABLE TO STOP HIM. HE SAYS, "IF WE STOP.
NATRONE MEANS A LITTLE BIT. BETTER, BRUNELL WON'T BE AS. WILD." DICK? >> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU, JIM. SHANAHAN, WORRIED LOOK ON HIS.
FACE. NO ONE HAS REALLY STOPPED MEANS. DURING THIS WINNING STREAK. ELWAY, WELL-PROTECTED.
THROWS INCOMPLETE. MIGHT HAVE BEEN DEFLECTED BY. TOM McMANUS IN FRONT OF THE. RECEIVER.
>> YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT IS AN. IMPORTANT DRIVE. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT DRIVE FOR. DENVER FOR THE SIMPLE REASON.
HERE'S A YOUNG TEAM, AND YOU. DON'T WANT THEM TO GET THE. FEELING THEY CAN WIN THIS. FOOTBALL GAME.
IF THEY STOP YOU ON THE FIRST. DOWN, AND YOU'RE HOME, I'M GONNA. TELL YOU WHAT. YOU PUT A WHOLE LOT OF.
CONFIDENCE IN THAT DEFENSE AND. OFFENSE. >> AND AFTER DENVER STARTED WITH. 143 YARDS IN THE OPENING.
QUARTER, HAD ONLY 45 YARDS AND. 2 FIRST DOWNS IN THE ENTIRE. SECOND PERIOD. THIRD AND 7 FOR ELWAY OUT OF THE.
SHOTGUN. THROWS UNDERNEATH TO. SHANNON SHARPE, AND SHARPE WITH. A FIRST DOWN TO THE 33.
13 ON THE PLAY. >> THEY GOT THAT OFFENSE THAT. YOU LIKE. HE'S FIVE GUYS WIDE.
>> DENVER PUTS FIVE. WIDE RECEIVERS OUT ON THE. FIELD, AND THEY SPREAD. LOOK AT THE FIVE.
WIDE RECEIVERS. WATCH THE BLITZ FROM UP TOP. BUT THE PROBLEM IS, IT JUST. CREATES TOO MANY HOLES DOWN THE.
FIELD. LOOK AT SHANNON SHARPE. NOBODY AROUND HIM. THE FIVE WIDE RECEIVERS COVER.
THE WHOLE FIELD. IT'S VERY TOUGH ON THE DEFENSE. >> HE HAD ACTUALLY TWO CHOICES. ON THAT PLAY.
>> ONLY THE SECOND CATCH FOR. SHARPE. ONE OF THOSE, OF COURSE, EARLIER. FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.
TO CRAVER. 30, 36-YARD LINE. TACKLED BY KEVIN HARDY. BEASLEY REECE? >> THANKS A LOT, DICK.
I SPOKE TO TOM COUGHLIN. HE SAID HE TOLD HIS PLAYERS THE. SCORE IS 0-0. THERE WAS NO HALFTIME.
CELEBRATION FOR THE JAGUARS. THEY ARE NOT SURPRISED THAT. THEY'RE LEADING THE FOOTBALL. GAME.
HE SAID THE KEY IN THE FIRST. HALF WAS THE TWO BIG DEFENSIVE. STOPS AND TWO BIG RUNS BY. NATRONE MEANS.
BACK TO YOU. >> ALL RIGHT, BEASLEY. IT MUST HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT. COUGHLIN THAN THE ONE IN THE.
PRESEASON. I GUESS HE THREW THE GATORADE. BUCKET AND RAISED CAIN IN THE. FINAL PRESEASON GAME OF THE.
YEAR. HE GOT THEIR ATTENTION, AND THEY. WOUND UP BEATING DENVER IN THAT. GAME.
SECOND AND 7. THREE IN THE PATTERN. ELWAY... TRAPPED, CAUGHT, DOWN HE GOES.
BODY-SLAMMED BY EDDIE ROBINSON. ROBINSON, WHO HAD ONLY ONE SACK. ALL SEASON, GETS ONE TODAY. >> WELL, THIS IS THE ZONE BLITZ.
FOR THE JAGUARS. WATCH THE DEFENSIVE ENDS DROP. OFF, THE BLITZ FROM THE OUTSIDE. DENVER -- THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM.
FOR THE DENVER OFFENSE. THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY. THEY WANTED TO SPREAD THE FIELD. SO, IT WOULD BE HARDER FOR THAT.
DEFENSE TO COVER THE RECEIVERS. ON THAT ZONE BLITZ. >> THE JAGUARS WERE LAST IN THE. LEAGUE A YEAR AGO, ONLY.
17 SACKS. THEY'VE ADDED THAT BY SOME 20, AND THAT'S SIMMONS AND BRACKENS. AND HARDY, THREE NEW FACES. THIRD DOWN AND 8.
THE THROW...INCOMPLETE. MILLER WITH A ONE-HANDED STAB AT. IT, UNABLE TO PULL IT IN, AS. BUCKY BROOKS, NICKEL BACK, IN TO.
COVER. AND ELWAY GETS UP WITH A GIMPY. WALK. >> WELL, ONLY 4 RUSHERS, AND THE.
JAGUARS GETTING CONFIDENT. GETTING SOME PRESSURE ON THE. QUARTERBACK, WITH 4 RUSHERS. JEFF LAGEMAN GETTING AROUND THE.
CORNER AGAINST. BRODERICK THOMPSON. AND, AGAIN, TOM COUGHLIN SAID, "JEFF LAGEMAN NOT GETTING THE. SACKS BUT DOING A LOT OF GOOD.
THINGS FOR OUR DEFENSE." >> ROUEN TO PUNT TO. CHRIS HUDSON, WHO STANDS AT THE. 22. BUT THE MOMENTUM CONTINUES WITH.
JACKSONVILLE. DYING SPIRAL. FAIR CATCH AT THE 24 BY HUDSON. BACK IN DENVER.
I THOUGHT THE THIRD POINT -- MIKE DITKA'S THIRD POINT -- WAS. TRYING TO REMIND US THAT. JACKSONVILLE, OF THEIR 17 GAMES. THIS YEAR, ALL BUT 3 WERE.
DECIDED LATE IN THE FOURTH. QUARTER. THIS IS A TEAM THAT PLAYS YOU TO. THE VERY END.
THEY LEAD, 13-12, FIRST. POSSESSION, SECOND HALF. NATRONE. BREAKS THE TACKLE, 35.
AND NATRONE MEANS HAS A FIRST. DOWN AT THE 37-YARD LINE. ...FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF. NORTH CAROLINA, NOW WITH.
92 YARDS AFTER THAT RUN. BRUNELL. DUMPS IT UNDERNEATH. MEANS AGAIN.
AND HE HAS ANOTHER FIRST DOWN AT. THE 49-YARD LINE. MOBLEY THE TACKLER. >> I'LL TELL YOU WHAT'S GOT TO.
BE A LITTLE SCARY FOR DENVER, PHIL. JACKSONVILLE'S MAKING THIS THING. LOOK EASY. THEY MADE IT LOOK EASY ON.
DEFENSE. THEY STOPPED THEM RIGHT AWAY. AND NOW THEY'RE JUST MOVING DOWN. THE FIELD.
NATRONE MEANS COMES OUT. BRUNELL IS LOOKING. HE'S THE ONLY OTHER GUY AND THE. ONLY GUY IN THE BACKFIELD WITH.
BRUNELL. HE GOES OUT. JUST A LITTLE DUMP PASS, AND HE. PICKS UP THE FIRST DOWN.
>> AGAIN, THE MEN IN THE. SECONDARY FORCED TO MAKE THE. STOP. 136 TOTAL YARDS FOR MEANS AND A.
TOUCHDOWN. [ CROWD CHEERS ] 13-12, JACKSONVILLE. 10:50 LEFT IN THE THIRD. BRUNELL, KNOCKED DOWN BY.
ALFRED WILLIAMS. AND THAT'S WHAT HE DOES SO WELL, FORMER HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL. STAR IN HOUSTON, TEXAS. WILLIAMS WITH ANOTHER BAT DOWN.
>> WELL, I'LL YOU WHAT. OLD MOBLEY, NUMBER 51, WAS. LOOKING OUTSIDE, LIKE HE WAS IN. A POSITION TO PICK THIS BALL UP.
BUT THIS IS YOUR BEST DEFENSE. RIGHT HERE. ALFRED WILLIAMS GOING UP, KNOCKING THE BALL OUT OF THE. WAY.
THAT TIME, BOSELLI DIDN'T GET. HIS HANDS ON HIM UNTIL AFTER THE. BALL WAS KNOCKED DOWN. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> ALFRED WITH A BIG SMILE AND.
ONE OF THE BIGGEST LAUGHS IN THE. LEAGUE -- WHAT A DELIGHTFUL, YOUNG GUY HE IS. HE IS HAPPY. NOT HAPPY TO SEE MEANS TEAR INTO.
THAT LINE AGAIN, TO THE 45 -- A GAIN OF ALMOST 7. >> DICK, ISN'T IT INTERESTING. WHAT HE GAVE UP TO COME TO. DENVER, OR FIRST TO GO TO.
SAN FRANCISCO AND THEN HERE IN. DENVER? >> OH, ALFRED WILLIAMS? >> YES. >> THAT'S UNBELIEVABLE. LAST YEAR, CINCINNATI OFFERED.
HIM WITH A BONUS $2.5 MILLION. HE SAID NO AND PLAYED FOR. $400,000 IN SAN FRANCISCO AND. SAID, "IT WAS A GOOD MOVE, 'CAUSE IT GOT ME HERE, AND I.
LEARNED A LOT IN ONE YEAR IN. SAN FRANCISCO." [ CROWD CHEERS ] THIRD AND 3. QUICK PASS COMPLETE TO. WILLIE JACKSON.
JACKSON STILL ALIVE AND FINALLY. DOWN AT THE 33-YARD LINE. RANDY HILLIARD MADE THE TACKLE. >> WELL, IT'S A GOOD JOB OF.
JACKSONVILLE, RECOGNIZING THE. BLITZ. THEY GOT A QUICK PASS ON WITH. THE FIVE WIDE RECEIVERS.
WATCH STEVE ATWATER. COMES THROUGH FREE. MARK BRUNELL KNOWS IT. NOBODY ON THE INSIDE RECEIVER.
GETS RID OF THE FOOTBALL. QUICKLY. GETS THE COMPLETION. >> JAMES STEWART RELIEVES.
NATRONE MEANS. STEWART, NUMBER 33, THE LONE. RUNNING BACK. FIRST DOWN AT THE 33.
IT'S HIS CALL. AND THE LEADING RUSHER THIS YEAR. FOR THE JAGUARS, WITH. 723 YARDS, STEWART, WHO LED ALSO.
A YEAR AGO, AS A ROOKIE OUT OF. TENNESSEE. NUMBER-1 PICK JUST GETS SOME. MINIMAL YARDS, MAYBE 2.
MICHAEL DEAN PERRY THE TACKLER. >> FIRST DOWN, THE. DENVER BRONCOS SEEMED TO BE. DOING ALL RIGHT ON DEFENSE.
THEY HOLD THEM TO A 1- OR 2-YARD. GAIN. IT'S SECOND AND THIRD DOWN. THAT'S KILLING THEM.
>> BOTH WIDE RECEIVERS TO THE. RIGHT, PETE MITCHELL LINED UP ON. THE LEFT. AND NOW McCARDELL IN MOTION.
BRUNELL. THROWING LONG FOR McCARDELL. TOUCHDOWN IF THEY CALL IT. WAS HE IN BOUNDS? NO CALL YET.
THEY LOOK AT EACH OTHER, THE TWO. OFFICIALS. NO SIGNAL. IT'S TOUCHDOWN! [ CROWD BOOS ] >> NEVER A DOUBT.
>> 31 YARDS ON THE RUN, MARK BRUNELL. WHAT A PERFECT THROW TO. McCARDELL. CAUGHT THE BALL JUST INCHES FROM.
THAT BASELINE. >> WELL, AGAIN, THE MOVEMENT OF. MARK BRUNELL. McCARDELL DOWN IN THE END ZONE.
LIONEL WASHINGTON RIGHT ON HIM. GOES UP. AND THAT'S GOING UP AND GETTING. AFTER THE BALL.
THAT'S THE REASON, AND GETTING. BOTH FEET DOWN. >> YEAH, THAT'S WHAT THE TWO. OFFICIALS WERE DISCUSSING, DICK.
IT WASN'T THE FACT THAT HE. CAUGHT THE BALL. ONE SAID TO THE OTHER ONE, "DID. HE GET BOTH FEET DOWN?" AND HE DID, AND IT WAS AN.
EXCELLENT CALL. >> MIKE HOLLIS, EXTRA POINT, AND. IT IS GOOD -- BARELY. DID HE HAVE A MEAN HOOK ON THAT.
ONE AND IS ABLE TO GET IT. THROUGH. 20 UNANSWERED POINTS BY THE. YOUNG JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS.
HOLLIS SKIPS ONE THROUGH. IT'S PATRICK JEFFERS, A. WIDE RECEIVER, AND HAVING. TROUBLES.
DIGS HIS WAY DOWN AT THE 23-YARD. LINE. >> WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE. TOUCHDOWN PLAY BY THE.
JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS, YOU'RE THE. QUARTERBACK, MARK BRUNELL. HE DROPS BACK. HE'S LOOKING DOWN THE FIELD.
HE SPOTS THE RECEIVERS. YOU STOP IT RIGHT THERE. EVERYBODY'S COVERED. HE HAS TO GET OUTSIDE AND MAKE A.
PLAY BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING. DOWNFIELD OPEN. >> WELL, THAT WAS CREATING A. TOUCHDOWN, 31 YARDS.
AND NOW DENVER FROM THE 22. TERRELL DAVIS ABLE TO GET 3, ALMOST 4 YARDS BEFORE. PAUL FRASE, A VETERAN, FORMER. JET, MAKES THE TACKLE.
>> WATCH JAMES STEWART HERE, NUMBER 33, ON ROMANOWSKI, 53. ROMANOWSKI GETS TAKEN INSIDE. NOW HIS JOB IS TO GET OUTSIDE. AND TO NOT ALLOW BRUNELL TO GET.
OUTSIDE. WHEN HE DOES THAT, TOUCHDOWN. >> BOY, THIS KID REALLY DOES. HAVE A NICE ARM, DOESN'T HE? HE JUST FLICKED THAT BALL ON THE.
RUN. IT WAS RIGHT THERE FOR. McCARDELL. >> WELL, THAT WAS TOM COUGHLIN'S.
FIRST PRIORITY, I THINK, WHEN HE. GOT DOWN THERE. HE SPOTTED HIM AS THE BACKUP AT. GREEN BAY, AND HE JUDGED HIM.
HE SAID, "THAT'S THE GUY I WANT. BEING MY QUARTERBACK." >> SECOND AND 6 AND DAVIS ABLE. TO SQUEAK IT OUT TO THE 30, 2 YARDS SHY OF A FIRST DOWN. IVAN JOHN JURKOVIC, THE VETERAN.
FROM EASTERN ILLINOIS, IN ON. THAT TACKLE WITH KEVIN HARDY. HE USED TO HAVE A RADIO SHOW UP. IN GREEN BAY, "YAKKING WITH JURKO," AND, BOY, HE...
>> I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. JURKO WALKED IN THE MEETING. YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO ASK HIM A. QUESTION.
HE WALKS IN, SITS DOWN, AND. HE'S, "WHAT DO YOU BOYS NEED?" HE STARTS! HE JUST STARTS. >> I LIVE HIS ALL-TIME DREAM. IF WE GET TIME, WE'LL TALK ABOUT.
THAT LATER. THIRD AND 2. ELWAY OUT OF THE SHOTGUN, THIRD. AND 2.
THROWS UNDERNEATH COMPLETE TO. MILLER, AND THAT SHOULD BE. ENOUGH. NEEDED 2, GOT 3.
BUCKY BROOKS MADE THE TACKLE. >> DICK, THE ONLY THING THAT I. DON'T LIKE ABOUT THIS BALLGAME. FOR DENVER IS THIS -- THAT.
JACKSONVILLE'S MAKING IT LOOK. EASY WHEN THEY HAVE THE BALL. AND ON DEFENSE, WHAT A GOOD JOB. THEY'RE DOING.
AND DENVER'S STRUGGLING. THEY NEEDED 2 YARDS ON A PLAY. THEY GET 3, AND IT WAS A. STRUGGLE GETTING IT.
>> BUT IT'S IMPORTANT. THE DENVER OFFENSE, THEY NEEDED. THAT FIRST DOWN TO GET BACK IN. RHYTHM, GET SOME CONFIDENCE, AND.
IT KIND OF OPENS UP THE PLAYBOOK. FOR MIKE SHANAHAN, WHERE HE CAN. CALL MORE PLAYS BECAUSE FINALLY. YOU'VE GOT SOME SUCCESS.
>> LESS THAN 7 MINUTES LEFT IN. THE THIRD. JACKSONVILLE LEADING, 20-12. PLAY-ACTION TO DAVIS.
GONNA THROW TO DAVIS. COMPLETE. THEN, A GOOD, SOLID OPEN-FIELD. TACKLE BY KEVIN HARDY.
HE HAS MADE PLENTY TODAY, THIS. ROOKIE FROM ILLINOIS, DRAFTED AS. THE SECOND PLAYER IN THE DRAFT. THIS LAST SPRING, FROM.
EVANSVILLE, INDIANA, THE HOME. BASE OF WAYNE WEAVER, THE OWNER. OF THE JAGUARS. MADE HIS FORTUNE IN WOMEN'S.
SHOES. >> WELL, KEVIN HARDY, THE. NUMBER-ONE DRAFT PICK BY THE. JAGUARS -- TOM COUGHLIN SAYS, "HE HAS BEEN EVERYTHING WE.
EXPECTED AND MORE." GREAT SPEED, RUNS AROUND. HE'S A ROOKIE. ALWAYS DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S. DOING, BUT THAT SPEED REALLY.
HELPS HIM OUT A LOT. >> AND THERE'S CHAIRMAN OF THE. BOARD, WEAVER. TEAM PLAYING BEYOND ALL.
EXPECTATIONS. AGAIN TO DAVIS. AGAIN TACKLED IMMEDIATELY, THIS. TIME BY EDDIE ROBINSON, SHY OF.
THE 40-YARD LINE, WHERE IT WILL. BE THIRD DOWN AND 3, DENVER. >> YOU KNOW WHAT'S AMAZING ABOUT. THIS TEAM, DICK? IF YOU LOOKED AT KEVIN HARDY, WHEN YOU SAW HIS NUMBERS UP.
THERE -- HE'S TIED FOR THE LEAD. ON THIS TEAM WITH INTERCEPTIONS, WITH 2! WITH ONLY 2. THESE GUYS, THEY PLAY CLOSE TO. THE VEST.
THEY'RE JUST A TOUGH FOOTBALL. TEAM. YOU TALK ABOUT ONE OF THESE. TEAMS THEY'LL BEND A LITTLE BIT.
BUT THEY DON'T BREAK? THAT'S THESE GUYS. THEY DON'T. >> YEAH, THEY HAD ONLY. 13 INTERCEPTIONS ALL SEASON, COMPARED WITH DENVER, 23.
THIRD AND 3. FAKE TO DAVIS. THROW. ALMOST INTERCEPTED.
KNOCKED IN THE AIR BY -- OH, THERE'S A FLAG, AARON BEASLEY. AND THEY MAY GET BEASLEY, EARLY. CONTACT ON ANTHONY MILLER. >> CAN I TELL YOU WHAT? THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN.
A BALL THROWN ALL YEAR LONG, PHIL, THAT IT HITS A GUY IN THE. HANDS AND PROBABLY WAS. UNCATCHABLE. [ LAUGHS ] JOHN ELWAY FIRED THIS BALL.
>> SECOND PENALTY FOR THE GAME. FOR JACKSONVILLE. >> PASS INTERFERENCE, NUMBER 21 ON THE DEFENSE. FIRST DOWN! >> ALL RIGHT, RED! >> RED GOING OUT CROWING -- HIS.
FINAL GAME AS AN NFL REFEREE. >> WATCH BEASLEY, NUMBER 21, AGAINST ANTHONY MILLER. THE PROBLEM IS, HE SEES IT, AND. I DON'T KNOW.
THERE'S NO CONTACT. THERE'S NOTHING. >> THERE'S NOTHING, AND IT. WASN'T EVEN CATCHABLE.
>> I GUESS THE ANGLE THE REFEREE. HAD, HE THOUGHT HE BUMPED THE. RECEIVER, BUT HE DID NOT TOUCH. HIM.
>> WELL, THAT NEGATES THE ONE IN. THE FIRST HALF THAT WENT THE. OTHER WAY, AS TERRELL DAVIS. UNABLE TO GET THAT ONE.
ELWAY HAD TO UNLOAD WITH. TOM McMANUS ALL OVER HIM. >> I THINK ELWAY SAW DANA HALL. OUT THERE ON DAVIS.
THEY WERE TRYING TO THROW A. LITTLE FLY PATTERN TO. ANTHONY MILLER DOWN THE. RIGHT-HAND SIDE, A LITTLE.
FAKE-AND-GO. AND WHEN THAT WASN'T THERE, HE. LOOKED OUT TO TERRELL DAVIS. THEN, HE SAW HALL, NUMBER 28, STANDING THERE.
"I MIGHT AS WELL THROW THIS BABY. AWAY. IT'S ONLY FIRST DOWN." >> LAST TIME THE BRONCOS LOST A. PLAYOFF GAME AT HOME -- THE ONLY.
TIME THEY HAVE -- WAS 1984, 12 YEARS AGO, TO PITTSBURGH. THEY WENT INTO THAT GAME 13-3, AS THEY DID TODAY. DAVIS. BRACKENS IN THE BACKFIELD FOR.
THE TACKLE, THE MAN WHO LED HIS. TEAM IN TACKLES FOR LOSS, THIS. YOUNG 22-YEAR-OLD FROM THE. UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS.
>> TONY BRACKENS, NUMBER 90. GOOD SPEED, GOOD INSTINCTS. SEES THE DRAW PLAY COMING TO THE. OUTSIDE, AND TERRELL DAVIS.
CANNOT OUTRUN HIM. AND THE DENVER BRONCO OFFENSE. AND TEAM, ALL THE GREAT SUCCESS. THIS YEAR, AS YOU WATCH THEM, YOU CAN SEE THEY LACK.
CONFIDENCE. TRYING TO FIND OUT, "WHAT CAN. WE DO TO GET SOMETHING GOING. AGAINST THIS JAGUAR DEFENSE?" >> SEE BRACKENS LISTED 266.
HE SAID, "I'M ABOUT 255. I GOT TO WORK ON MY WEIGHT. IT'S BEEN A LONG YEAR, THIS. ROOKIE SEASON." THIRD AND 15 FOR ELWAY.
THROWS DEEP. AND BEASLEY. AARON BEASLEY BREAKS THAT ONE. UP.
INTENDED FOR ROD SMITH, AND THE. BRONCOS HAVE TO BRING ON THE. PUNTING TEAM WITH 4 1/2 LEFT IN. THE THIRD.
>> JACKSONVILLE'S DEFENSE, YOU. CAN SEE IT. THEY ARE GONNA DO ONE THING. RIGHT NOW.
"WE ARE NOT GIVING UP BIG. PLAYS." YOU CAN TELL THE WHOLE DRIVE. AND BEASLEY, THIRD AND 15. HEY, HE STAYS BACK ABOUT 17 OR.
18 YARDS. WAIT FOR THE THROW, DRIVE UP, AND TRY TO GET THE BALL. >> ROUEN TO PUNT. CHRIS HUDSON AT THE 14.
BEAUTIFUL SPIRAL THIS TIME FROM. ROUEN. HUDSON, NO FAIR CATCH YET. AT THE 11, SIDESTEPS ONE MAN.
AND FINALLY SMOTHERED AT ABOUT. THE 13. THE HOT TEAM -- 6 WINS IN A ROW. HOT HERE IN DENVER.
LAST FOUR POSSESSIONS -- 4 SCORES, 20 UNANSWERED POINTS. AND NOW BRUNELL TAKES OVER AT. HIS 13-YARD LINE. SLOW START, 2-FOR-6, BUT HE'S.
BEEN MAKING PLAYS EVER SINCE. NATRONE. HE GETS ONLY TO THE 10-YARD. LINE.
>> I'LL TELL YOU. IT IS REALLY NOISY DOWN IN THAT. END ZONE DOWN THERE, AND THIS IS. WHAT JACKSONVILLE IS TRYING TO.
DO. THEY'RE TRYING TO RUN SOME TIME. OFF THE CLOCK, AND THEY ALSO ARE. TRYING TO RUN THE BALL.
NATRONE MEANS IS JUST HAVING A. TERRIFIC FOOTBALL GAME. AND IF THEY CAN GET HIM TO THE. OUTSIDE AND NOT WORRY TOO MUCH.
ABOUT GETTING HIM INSIDE, I. THINK THEY'LL BE ALL RIGHT. >> MEANS NOW WITH 101 YARDS. AGAINST THE LEAGUE'S BEST.
DEFENSE AGAINST THE RUSH. [ CROWD CHEERS ] THROW INCOMPLETE. A DIVING TRY BY. KEENAN McCARDELL.
McCARDELL, THE ONLY JAGUAR TO. THE PRO BOWL, THE FIRST FOR. JACKSONVILLE. >> WATCH KEENAN McCARDELL ON THE.
OUTSIDE. IT'S A SHORT DROP ON. MARK BRUNELL. GOOD PROTECTION.
HE DID A GOOD JOB OF GETTING. INSIDE. IT'S A LITTLE LOW. HE GOES DOWN.
JUST CAN'T MAKE THE CATCH. BECAUSE THE THROW WAS NOT UP. HIGH ENOUGH. >> IS IT SURPRISING THAT THE.
QUARTERBACK WHO THREW THE MOST. YARDAGE IN A SEASON IS NOT EVEN. AT THE PRO BOWL? THREE OTHER QUARTERBACKS AHEAD. OF HIM.
THEY JUST DIDN'T BELIEVE. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> THIRD DOWN AND 8. MEANS... >> UH-OH.
>> ...BREAKS A TACKLE. RUMBLES OUT ACROSS THE 25-YARD. LINE, AND A SAFETY HAS TO TACKLE. HIM AGAIN, TYRONE BRAXTON.
AND MEANS' SMILE GETTING BIGGER. AND BIGGER. >> WELL, IT'S A GOOD CALL, BUT. WHAT IT IS, IT'S A SAFE CALL.
THE CROWD IS AGAINST YOU. IT'S A TRAP INSIDE. YOU CAN SEE RICH TYLSKI COMING. ACROSS.
DAN WILLIAMS JUST OVERRUNS THE. PLAY. JACKSONVILLE IS RUNNING THAT. PLAY BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT.
ANYTHING BAD TO HAPPEN. YEAH, THEY THINK IT MIGHT WORK, BUT THE REASON IS, THEY DON'T. WANT DENVER TO GET A BIG PLAY, GET THE MOMENTUM, AND MAKE. SOMETHING GOOD HAPPEN.
>> AND WHAT YOU GOT -- YOU GOT. SOME DENVER BRONCO DEFENSIVE. GUYS WHO ARE TRYING TO DO THINGS. THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE.
DOING. YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE YOUR LANE AND. STAY IN YOUR LANE. >> 17 MORE YARDS FOR MEANS.
BRUNELL GUNS THIS ONE, AND IT'S. COMPLETE. TO BE McCARDELL AGAIN. IT IS.
TACKLED BY TORY JAMES, 11 YARDS, ANOTHER JACKSONVILLE FIRST DOWN. LATE IN THE THIRD QUARTER, 20-12. >> YOU KNOW, PHIL, WHAT A GREAT. THROW THAT WAS.
MARK BRUNELL JUST WAITED AND. WAITED AND WAITED AND THEN THREW. THE BALL. THAT'S PATIENCE.
>> WELL, IT WAS A 3-STEP DROP. IT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED RIGHT. AWAY. IT DIDN'T, BUT HE HAD GOOD.
PATIENCE, LIKE YOU SAID, PAUL. LET THE RECEIVER GET INSIDE. WHERE THERE WAS AN OPENING. >> COME OUT IN A POWER.
FORMATION. TWO TIGHT ENDS LEFT, McCARDELL. TO THE RIGHT. AND GIVE IT TO MEANS.
AND HE'S OUT TO THE 43-YARD. LINE, A 5-YARD PICKUP ON FIRST. DOWN. ANOTHER SAFETY TACKLE.
BRAXTON MAKES THE STOP. NATRONE, THE REASON WHY. SAN DIEGO GOT DISCOURAGED WITH. HIM -- ONE WAS PROBLEMS WITH HIS.
AGENT. THE OTHER WAS THEY FELT HE WAS. HEAVY AND DIDN'T WORK HARD. AND NONE OF THOSE THINGS WERE.
TRUE WHEN HE ARRIVED AT. JACKSONVILLE, ACCORDING TO. TOM COUGHLIN. >> WELL, TOM COUGHLIN ALSO SAID, "I BROUGHT HIM IN MY OFFICE.
I SAT DOWN. I SAID, 'HEY, LISTEN. HERE'S THE WAY IT'S GONNA BE. THIS IS THE WAY I RUN MY SHOW.
YOU DO IT MY WAY, YOU STAY HERE. IF YOU DON'T, GET OUT.'" >> HE SAID HE LOST WEIGHT, BECOME A MODEL PLAYER. >> SECOND AND 5. STEWART NOW IN THE BACKFIELD.
SLIPS AS HE TRIES TO MAKE HIS. CUT, AND HE'S GROUNDED BY. BRAXTON. >> WELL, AGAIN, DENVER'S BEEN.
FINE ON FIRST AND SECOND DOWN. THIRD DOWN, THEY'VE BEEN GETTING. INTO A LOT OF TROUBLE, AND. THEY'RE GETTING IN TROUBLE.
BECAUSE THE GUYS ARE NOT PLAYING. THE DEFENSE THAT'S DESIGNED. >> JAMES STEWART, AT 224 POUNDS, UNABLE TO GET THAT WEIGHT GOING. BACK THE OTHER WAY.
THE FIELD HAS BEEN RESODDED, AND. SOME OF THE FOOTING NOT AS SOLID. AS THE PLAYERS WOULD LIKE. JACKSONVILLE IS 5-FOR-9 ON THIRD.
DOWNS TODAY. BRUNELL LOOKING FOR THE QUICK. PASS AND THEN GOES LONG AND A. MAN OPEN! OUT OF BOUNDS IS WILLIE JACKSON.
HE'S OPEN AGAIN BEHIND LIONEL -- NO, THEY SAY HE DIDN'T GET BOTH. FEET DOWN. LIONEL WASHINGTON WAS COVERING, AND JACKSON APPARENTLY CROWDING. THAT SIDELINE, JUST UNABLE TO.
GET THE SECOND FOOT DOWN. AND OH, THAT SIGH OF RELIEF FROM. 76,000 HERE IN DENVER. >> I'LL TELL YOU.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL THROW. WHAT A GREAT THROW! >> WILLIE JACKSON GOING DOWN THE. FIELD. THE RIGHT FOOT'S IN.
THE LEFT FOOT NEVER GETS DOWN. >> GOOD CALL. DIDN'T DRAG THE LEFT FOOT. SO, THE PUNT BY BRYAN BARKER.
A FLAG DOWN. BEAUTIFUL, HIGH KICK. ROD SMITH, FAIR CATCH AT THE. 7-YARD LINE.
50-YARD PUNT, NO RETURN. WILL IT COUNT? 46 SECONDS NOW SHOWING, TIME. REMAINING IN THE THIRD. >> RED AND I KIND OF JOG ALIKE, YOU KNOW IT? [ LAUGHS ] NICE, SLOW-PACED JOG.
>> STILL MAKES HIS HOME IN. COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS. WENT TO TEXAS A&M. >> THAT'S A SPRINT FOR YOU.
>> [ LAUGHS ] >> THAT'S GONNA DENY BARKER A. TERRIFIC PUNT. ILLEGAL MAN DOWNFIELD. SO, THEY'LL BRING IT BACK AND.
MAKE BARKER PUNT IT ONCE MORE. >> DICK, YOU KNOW ON THAT LAST. PLAY -- >> 12 MEN ON THE FIELD BY THE. KICKERS.
5 YARDS, STILL FOURTH DOWN. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> BARKER SAYS, "I COUNTED. THERE WERE ONLY 11." >> 1, 5 ON THE LINE, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. 11 UP TOP.
I ONLY SEE 11. I COUNTED THE PUNTER IN THE. BACK. I COUNTED 11.
HERE'S A BETTER LOOK AT IT. WELL, YOU CAN'T TELL RIGHT NOW. [ WHISTLE BLOWS ] >> SO, BARKER, A SOLID STUDENT. AT SANTA CLARA.
THOSE WERE DIFFERENT BRONCOS. >> YEAH, THE OFFICIAL'S SAYING, "WAIT A MINUTE. MAYBE I MISCOUNTED THESE GUYS. THERE WERE ONLY 11." >> THE OTHER WAY.
>> THE RECEIVERS HAD 12 MEN, NOT. THE KICKERS. [ CROWD BOOS ] >> THAT MAKES A LOT OF FOLKS. FEEL BETTER.
>> YEAH, I WAS FEELING BAD ABOUT. MY COUNTING. I SAID, "WELL, MAYBE I DON'T SEE. SOMEBODY." >> WELL, IT'S STILL GONNA BE.
FOURTH DOWN. IT'LL BE FOURTH AND 5 INSTEAD OF. FOURTH AND 10. BUT WHAT THEY WANT TO DO IS MAKE.
SURE THE KICK STAYS DOWNFIELD. >> IT WAS THIRD AND 5. FIRST OF ALL, THEY'D HAVE TO. MEASURE TO SEE IF IT'S A FIRST.
DOWN. AND THEN THAT WAS A TERRIFIC. PUNT. IF IT ISN'T A FIRST DOWN, YOU.
TAKE THE -- >> THE ONLY PROBLEM IS, DICK, THAT THEY ALREADY MEASURED OFF. THE ONE PENALTY. SO, THEY MOVED THE BALL BACK. NOW, WHERE WAS THE BALL MARKED? >> NO, IT WAS THIRD DOWN AND 5, AND HE PUNTED THE BALL.
EXCUSE ME. I MEAN FOURTH AND 5 WHEN HE. PUNTED THE BALL. >> I'M SAYING THEY'VE ALREADY.
MARKED THE PENALTY OFF TO FOURTH. AND 10. SO, NOW, IS WHERE WAS THE BALL. BEFORE THEY MARKED IT OFF? NOW HE'S GOT TO GO BACK AND TAKE.
IT THE SAME STEPS BECAUSE THEY. DON'T HAVE IT MARKED. >> WELL, WE HAVE THE LUXURY OF. REPLAY.
IT'S RIGHT ON THE 43-YARD LINE. >> 43-YARD LINE EXACTLY. >> SO, YOU GIVE THEM 5 YARDS. FROM THERE, IT'S TO THE 48, AND.
THAT WOULD BE A VERY INTERESTING. MEASUREMENT. >> IT WOULD BE RIGHT ON THE NOSE. OF THE BALL, AND I'M TELLING.
YOU, IF IT'S GONNA BE MARKED. THERE AND WHERE THE MARKER IS. OVER HERE, IT'LL BE A FIRST. DOWN.
>> YEP, THEY MEASURED ON THE. SIDELINES, AND THAT'S EXACTLY. THE CASE. AND THE FANS AREN'T GONNA LIKE.
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT FROM. RED CASHION. >> 'CAUSE IT IS GOING TO BE. FIRST DOWN.
>> ON THE KICK, THERE WERE 12 MEN ON THE DEFENSE. NUMBER 95 DID NOT GET OFF THE. FIELD. IT'S A 5-YARD PENALTY.
FIRST DOWN! [ CROWD BOOS ] >> NUMBER 95 IS. MICHAEL DEAN PERRY. THERE'S 11 PEOPLE. WATCH MICHAEL DEAN PERRY AT THE.
BOTTOM OF YOUR SCREEN. HE'S TRYING TO HUSTLE OFF, BUT. HE DOESN'T MAKE IT BEFORE THE. SNAP OF THE BALL.
IN FACT, HUSTLE? HE'S WALKING OFF. >> AND THAT COST HIS TEAM. AND JACKSONVILLE GLADLY ACCEPTS. THE FIRST DOWN WITH LESS THAN A.
MINUTE REMAINING IN THE THIRD. AND THE JAGUARS BUILDING. MOMENTUM HERE WITH A 20-12 LEAD. AGAINST A TWO-TOUCHDOWN FAVORITE.
ON ITS HOME FIELD, DENVER. THE THROW. OPEN AGAIN, McCARDELL. SURVIVES A DOUBLE HIT AND PULLED.
DOWN AT THE 45 WITH A GAIN OF 8. MAKE IT 7. >> THE THING YOU SAW ON THAT. LAST PLAY -- MARK BRUNELL, HE.
CAN RUN AROUND, BUT YOU CAN SEE. THE STRENGTH OF HIS ARM. AND YOU TALK ABOUT HE LOOKS LIKE. STEVE YOUNG, AND HE'S.
LEFT-HANDED, AND HE CAN RUN. BUT I'LL TELL YOU. HE REMINDS ME A LOT OF. BRETT FAVRE.
HE CAN MOVE AROUND. HE MAKES A LOT OF BIG PLAYS. THROWING THE FOOTBALL, AND HE. HAS A STRONG ARM.
>> HOW ABOUT ACCURATE? >> PRETTY ACCURATE, YES. >> I THINK SO. >> YOU GOT TO BE PRETTY ACCURATE. TO THROW FOR 4,300 YARDS.
>> THE GAME CLOCK AND PLAY CLOCK. ARE ALMOST IN SEQUENCE, AND THEY. DON'T HAVE TO RUN A PLAY. SO, THEY CAN LET THE CLOCK RUN.
OUT. WE'LL HAVE A SECOND AND 3 WHEN. THE FOURTH QUARTER BEGINS. AND THE DRAMA BUILDS.
20-12, JACKSONVILLE, AFTER. DENVER OWNED THE FIRST QUARTER. UNABLE TO CONVERT TWO EXTRA. POINTS.
BRUNELL, SECOND AND 3. OUT OF THE BACKFIELD AND. INCOMPLETE TO Le'SHAI MASTON, HIS FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO TOUCH. THE BALL TODAY.
THEY HAD ONE RUNNING. OPPORTUNITY. A VERY BIG PLAY AND YET IT WAS. ONLY A LITTLE POINT.
CLYDE SIMMONS, 96. YOU SEE HIM LINED UP RIGHT OVER. CENTER. GETS GOOD PENETRATION.
TERRIFIC TIMING AND THE BIG. RIGHT HAND BATS AWAY THE EXTRA. POINT ON DENVER'S FIRST. TOUCHDOWN.
THEN, ON THE SECOND, THEY HAD TO. GO FOR 2. SHANNON SHARPE HANDCUFFED BY. THIS BULLET FROM ELWAY.
SO, IT'S 12-0. BUT DENVER SEEMED TO HAVE THE. GAME IN CONTROL. BUT SOMEHOW, PSYCHOLOGICALLY, THAT MISSED EXTRA POINT COMES.
BACK TO HAUNT YOU. McCARDELL, OUT OF BOUNDS, FIRST. DOWN AT THE 41-YARD LINE. AND YOU WERE MAKING A POINT, PHIL SIMMS, THAT THERE ARE A LOT.
OF LITTLE THINGS THAT HAVE GONE. DOWN AGAINST DENVER TODAY FOR A. TEAM WITH SUCH A GOOD RECORD. >> WELL, WE SAW THEM, DICK.
PENALTIES -- STUPID PENALTIES. YOU KNOW, MICHAEL DEAN NOT. HUSTLING OFF THE FIELD. IT'S BIG RIGHT HERE, DRIVING.
THIS FOOTBALL. DROPPED PASSES -- SOMETHING THEY. HAVEN'T DONE. DROPPED PASSES BY THEIR STARS -- SHANNON SHARPE DROPPING 2 -- THAT HAVE PLAYED AN IMPORTANT.
ROLE IN THIS GAME SO FAR. >> AND THE JAGUARS SHOWING WHY. THEY'VE WON 6 IN A ROW. HAND-OFF, MEANS, JUST PUSHES.
DOWN ONE DEFENDER AND THEN. SNEAKS UNDER A COUPLE OTHERS TO. THE 39, A GAIN OF 2. STEVE ATWATER -- HE DOESN'T MISS.
TOO MANY. BUT ABLE -- WAS THAT THE MAN WHO. TOOK THE STRAIGHT-ARM. BOY, THAT IN ITSELF IS A.
CLASSIC, TO SEE HIM GO DOWN FROM. A STRAIGHT-ARM. >> WELL, MICHAEL DEAN PERRY. COMES IN, AND ALL HE'S GOING FOR.
IS THE QUARTERBACK. HE GOES RIGHT BY NATRONE MEANS. AND HE WOULD HAVE HAD HIM IN THE. BACKFIELD FOR ABOUT A 5-YARD.
LOSS, BUT HE WENT STRAIGHT FOR. THE QUARTERBACK AND NOT FOR THE. RUNNING BACK. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> JIMMY SMITH TO THE RIGHT.
McCARDELL TO THE LEFT. SECOND AND 8. MEANS. WRAPPED UP AFTER A YARD GAIN.
GOOD DEFENSIVE PLAY BY LODISH. AND PERRY, THE TWO TACKLES FOR. DENVER. >> ONE THING ABOUT BRUNELL THAT.
I'M SEEING, PHIL, IS HE MAY BE A. YOUNG QUARTERBACK, BUT, MAN, IS. HE READING THE BLITZES. HE'S PICKING UP EVERYTHING.
THE PLAY TO McCARDELL FOR THE. FIRST DOWN JUST TWO PLAYS AGO, THREE PLAYS AGO, WAS A PERFECT. EXAMPLE OF READING THE BLITZ AND. TAKING THAT LITTLE SHORT OUT, PICKING UP THE FIRST DOWN.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] >> LEADING BY 8. THIRD AND 7. BRUNELL SIGNALING NOT FOR. TIME-OUT, BUT HE WAS SIGNALING.
FORMATION. HE HAD 3 WIDES TO THE LEFT, THEN HAD TO SIGNAL TIME-OUT. THE NUMBER-1 SEED IN THE AFC, DENVER BRONCOS, TRAILING AT HOME. BY 8 IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.
NOT OFTEN THAT OPPONENTS AGREE. ON AN ISSUE, BUT YOU THINK THAT. NEW ENGLAND AND PITTSBURGH. AREN'T WATCHING TODAY, UNANIMOUS.
IN HOW THEY'RE CHEERING? THE WINNER TO MEET THE WINNER OF. THIS ONE. AND IF IT'S JACKSONVILLE, EITHER THE PATRIOTS OR STEELERS. WILL GET HOME FIELD.
THIRD DOWN AND 7. UNDER PRESSURE. RUNNING RIGHT BY A TACKLER GOES. JAMES STEWART.
AND STEWART, NICKNAMED. "LITTLE MAN," IS PLAYING BIG. MAN. HIS DADDY CALLED HIM.
"LITTLE MAN." HAS A FIRST DOWN. IT APPEARED THAT A BRONCO HAD A. SURE TACKLE ON HIM. >> WELL, WHAT HAPPENED -- IT WAS.
MAN COVERAGE. BILL ROMANOWSKI HAS THE BACK. LOOK AT HIM GO WITH HIM. BUT TONY BOSELLI COMES OFF OF.
HIS PASS RUSHER, GETS HIM. OUTSIDE. NOW THERE'S NOBODY TO ACCOUNT. FOR JAMES STEWART.
>> I'LL TELL YOU. WHAT A GREAT CALL. THAT'S A SCREEN PASS, ONE OF THE. FIRST ONES WE'VE SEEN TODAY.
>> NOT ONLY A GOOD CALL, BUT YOU. GOT TO HAVE A TALENTED LEFT. TACKLE, ATHLETIC, TO MAKE THAT. PLAY.
>> BOY, BOSELLI REALLY DID MAKE. THE PLAY. NOW IT'S JAMES STEWART AGAIN, AND HE'S TO THE 9-YARD LINE. BEFORE LODISH CAN MAKE THE STOP.
AND THAT'S NOT GOOD NEWS -- THE. TOP TACKLER IN THE SECONDARY FOR. THE BRONCOS, PRO BOWLER. STEVE ATWATER, LIMPS OFF.
THIS HAS BECOME A SHOCKING GAME. 8-POINT LEAD, WELL INTO. FIELD-GOAL RANGE AT THE 9-YARD. LINE, THE JAGUARS.
>> WELL, AND THE LAYOFF DID NOT. HURT THE BRONCOS. WE TALKED ABOUT IT. HEY, THE BRONCOS CAME OUT ON.
BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL, WERE. EXTREMELY SHARP, GOT THE LEAD, GOT EVERYTHING THEY WANTED. JACKSONVILLE HAS JUST OUTPLAYED. THEM SINCE THEN.
>> 15Th PLAY OF THIS DRIVE FOR. JACKSONVILLE. SECOND AND 6 FROM THE 9. STEWART PICKING HIS WAY CLOSE TO.
THE 5-YARD LINE. THEY'RE GONNA CALL KNEE DOWN AT. THE 6. IT'LL BE 2, 2 1/2 YARDS FROM A.
FIRST DOWN. >> YOU KNOW, DICK, WE TALK ABOUT. TONY BOSELLI SO MUCH. WE SHOWED ENOUGH OF HIM, MAYBE.
NOT ENOUGH OF HIM -- WE'RE GONNA. SHOW MORE, 'CAUSE HE'LL BE DOING. BETTER PLAYS. BUT WHEN HE WALKED IN AND SAT.
DOWN IN THAT MEETING YESTERDAY, THE FINAL THING HE SAID -- "WE'RE GONNA WIN. WE'RE GONNA WIN." >> "WE DIDN'T COME UP HERE TO. CELEBRATE A WILD-CARD 14-POINT. UNDERDOG AND SAY, 'GEE, WE'VE.
HAD A GREAT YEAR. LET'S LOSE TO THE HEAVILY. FAVORED BRONCOS.'" [ CROWD CHEERS ] THIRD AND 3. STEWART AGAIN.
HIT IN THE BACKFIELD, BREAKS A. TACKLE. IS TO THE 4-YARD LINE. WHISTLED DOWN.
IT'LL BE SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN. SO, TOM COUGHLIN LOOKS AT FOURTH. AND 1, BUT WITH AN 8-POINT LEAD, WITHIN RANGE OF A TOUCHDOWN AND. 2-POINT CONVERSION, TAKE THE.
FIELD GOAL AND MAKE THE OTHER. TEAM SCORE TWICE. >> YOU BET. YOU DON'T EVEN HESITATE, BECAUSE.
WHAT THIS DOES FOR THE BRONCOS, THAT MEANS THE BRONCOS HAVE TO. SCORE A TOUCHDOWN AND 2 -- AND. 2 POINTS -- AND THEN A FIELD. GOAL TO JUST TIE IT.
>> ARE YOU SURE? >> YEAH, I'M RIGHT. I'VE BEEN ADDING THIS BABY UP. FOR WEEKS, AND I GOT THIS RIGHT. NOW.
>> THAT EIGHTH-GRADE ARITHMETIC. HAS BEEN TOUGH FOR YOU. >> OH, IT'S BEEN KILLING ME. >> HOLLIS FROM 22.
HE'S GOT IT. HE'S 3-FOR-3. HIT THE LONG ONES EARLIER. SOME DRIVE BY JACKSONVILLE, THAT.
WAS EXTENDED WHEN. MICHAEL DEAN PERRY FAILED TO GET. OFF THE FIELD ON THE PUNT, AND. THAT GAVE JACKSONVILLE A SECOND.
CHANCE. THEY GO 88 YARDS, 17 PLAYS. TOOK 8 1/2 MINUTES AND NOW LEAD. 23-12.
23 UNANSWERED POINTS AND 5 STRAIGHT POSSESSIONS FOR. JACKSONVILLE IN WHICH THEY'VE. SCORED. HOLLIS.
ONE-HOPS IT TO THE 30. 40, 43-YARD LINE GOES. KEITH BURNS WITH A RARE CHANCE. TO RETURN A KICKOFF, THE.
LINEBACKER FROM OKLAHOMA STATE. WITH ALL THE NFL GAMES THAT I'VE. BEEN FORTUNATE TO COVER, THAT TO. ME IN MANY WAYS IS THE MOST.
MEMORABLE, THAT FIRST DOWN AND. 98 ENGINEERED BY ELWAY TO GET A. TIE AND BEATING THE BROWNS IN. OVERTIME.
HE HITS ED McCAFFREY RIGHT AT. THE STICKS. THAT'LL BE CLOSE TO A FIRST. DOWN, DEPENDING ON THE MARK, AT.
THE 48, 47-YARD LINE. DAVIS AND HARDY, THE TACKLERS. >> WELL, ED McCAFFREY NOT AFRAID. TO GO OVER THE MIDDLE.
HE'S A BIG TARGET, AND. JOHN ELWAY THROWS A STRIKE IN. HERE THIS TIME. PROTECT THE FOOTBALL ONCE YOU.
CATCH IT. IT'S GONNA TAKE A LOT OF PLAYS. TO SCORE THIS TOUCHDOWN. DON'T TRY TO BE A HERO.
>> SECOND AND 1, AS WE APPROACH. THE 10-MINUTE MARK. AND TERRELL DAVIS SQUIRTS. THROUGH TO THE 36-YARD LINE.
AND DAVIS, WHO HAS BEEN QUIET. SINCE ONE LONG RUN OF OVER. 40 YARDS IN THE OPENING QUARTER, HAS A FIRST DOWN. >> YOU GOT AN INJURED.
JACKSONVILLE PLAYER. >> CLYDE SIMMONS, THE VETERAN. DEFENSIVE END, IS INJURED. GOOD BLOCK BY BRODERICK THOMPSON.
TO SEAL IT OFF, AS THE YOUNG. JAGUARS ROOTING FOR THE DEFENSE. 9:59 LEFT IN THE FOURTH. ELWAY READY TO GO WHEN WE COME.
BACK. THEY'RE WATCHING THE JUMBOTRON. AT JACKSONVILLE MUNICIPAL. STADIUM AND SO FAR LIKE WHAT.
THEY SEE, WITH 9:59 LEFT. IT'S 23-12. THEY SAY WELL OVER 5,000 ROOTING. AS COMPANY.
>> WE WERE LOOKING AT THAT. THING, AND YOU MADE A COMMENT, PHIL. YOU SAW A LOT OF TONY BOSELLI. JERSEYS IN THE STANDS.
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW. ANYBODY BUY AN OFFENSIVE. LINEMAN'S JERSEY? >> MEANWHILE, JOHN ELWAY, FIRST. DOWN AT THE JACKSONVILLE 36.
HE THROWS OFF THE BACK FOOT LONG. FOR McCAFFREY, BUT McCAFFREY WAS. LOOKING INSIDE. THE THROW WENT OUTSIDE.
MICKEY WASHINGTON COVERING. >> KELVIN PRITCHETT GOT THROUGH, NUMBER 94, ON ELWAY, AND ELWAY. HAD TO UNLOAD THE BALL. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HOW.
CONFIDENT JACKSONVILLE WAS WHEN. WE TALKED TO THEM YESTERDAY. NOT REALLY OVERCONFIDENT, BUT. CONFIDENT.
I NEVER SAW DENVER MORE RELAXED. THAN WHEN WE TALKED TO THEM THE. OTHER DAY. I THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE READY.
FOR THIS GAME. >> ELWAY TO THE FLAT TO DAVIS. TURNED INSIDE AND TACKLED AT THE. 34-YARD LINE.
TOM McMANUS DOWN LOW WITH A HIT. AARON BEASLEY, A GOOD JOB. TURNING THE PLAY IN. >> THAT PLAY ILLUSTRATED THIS.
JACKSONVILLE DEFENSE TODAY, NOT. GIVING UP THE BIG PLAYS. WHEN THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO MAKE. THE TACKLES, THEY'RE DOING IT.
NO CHEAP YARDS BY THE DENVER. OFFENSE SO FAR. >> THIRD DOWN, 8 FOR ELWAY. SHOTGUN.
WHIPS ONE COMPLETE. ROD SMITH BREAKS OUT OF A. TACKLE. OUT OF BOUNDS INSIDE THE 20! FIRST DOWN, DENVER.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] >> WELL, THIS PLAY, IT'S ONLY A. COMPLETION BECAUSE OF THE. STRENGTH OF JOHN ELWAY'S ARM. THERE'S NOT THAT BIG OF A SEAM.
IN THE DEFENSE. BUT HE LETS IT GO, AND IT IS. RIGHT ON THE MONEY AGAIN. AND THEN ROD SMITH DOES A GOOD.
JOB OF KEEPING HIS BALANCE AND. GETTING A FEW EXTRA YARDS. >> LOOK AT HOW CRAVER COMES IN. AND GETS A BLOCK FOR HIM.
>> 15 YARDS, FIRST CATCH FOR. SMITH. ELWAY, UNDER PRESSURE, THROWS IT. OFF A LINEMAN, BRODERICK THOMPSON.
THAT'LL COST ELWAY A PENALTY. ELWAY JUST INSTINCTIVELY. THROWING AT THE FIRST JERSEY HE. COULD SEE, AS HE WAS ABOUT TO BE.
SACKED AND THREW IT RIGHT AT. JEFF LAGEMAN. >> WHAT HE WAS TRYING TO DO IS. TERRELL DAVIS WAS WAY OUT...
>> LOSS OF A DOWN. SECOND DOWN. >> BRODERICK THOMPSON SAID, "WHAT DID I DO WRONG?" YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. ELWAY DID IT.
WHAT HE WAS TRYING TO DO IS. TERRELL DAVIS WAS WAY OUT TO HIS. RIGHT. YOU SEE HIM, NUMBER 30, ON THE.
BOTTOM OF YOUR SCREEN RIGHT. HERE? AND JOHN ELWAY'S JUST TRYING TO. THROW THE BALL, BUT IT SLIPS OUT. OF HIS HANDS, AND IT HITS.
THOMPSON RIGHT IN THE FACE. >> BRODERICK THOMPSON SAID, "WHAT DID I DO WRONG?" >> "I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. I'M JUST STANDING HERE." >> I THINK HE SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT. IT.
>> SO, IT ONLY COSTS THEM AN. INCOMPLETE PASS -- NO PENALTY. WITH IT. SECOND AND 10.
ANTHONY MILLER TO THE RIGHT, McCAFFREY LEFT. CRAVER AND DAVIS WITH ELWAY. BLITZ. PICKED UP WELL.
THROWN UNDERNEATH. COMPLETE TO McCAFFREY. HE'S DOWN AT THE 15-YARD LINE, 5 YARDS SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN. >> JACKSONVILLE LOVES TO BLITZ.
INSIDE WITH THE TWO LINEBACKERS. THEY COME WITH IT. DENVER, EXCELLENT JOB. WATCH THE LINEBACKERS COME ON.
THE BLITZ. THEY PICK IT UP. SHANNON SHARPE IS GOING DOWN THE. FIELD.
ELWAY WAITS A SECOND LONGER, HE. WOULD HAVE SEEN SHANNON SHARPE. OPEN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN BEHIND. >> BIG PLAY, THIRD AND 6.
CLYDE SIMMONS BACK IN FOR. JACKSONVILLE. ELWAY GONNA RUN IT. NOW HE THROWS.
COMPLETE TO McCAFFREY AT THE 4. AND ELWAY DID STAY BEHIND THE. LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. >> THE ONE THING -- McCAFFREY, WE'VE SEEN THIS GUY DO THIS MORE.
THAN ONE TIME THIS YEAR. ED McCAFFREY WILL GET HIMSELF. OPEN. AND HE KNOWS ELWAY'S SCRAMBLING.
HE COMES ACROSS THE MIDDLE. NOW WATCH HIM SIT IN THERE. HE LOOKS. HE SEES ELWAY.
NOW HE GETS HIMSELF OPEN. SITS DOWN AND ELWAY FINDS HIM AT. THE 3-YARD LINE. >> LINE OF SCRIMMAGE WAS THE 15.
ELWAY THREW IT FROM THE 16. FIRST AND GOAL AT THE 2. [ CROWD CHEERS ] TERRELL DAVIS. TOUCHDOWN! >> NOW THEY GO FOR 2.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] >> VINTAGE ELWAY, DRIVING THE. BRONCOS TO A QUICK ANSWER TO. THAT LAST FIELD GOAL AND. STOPPING THE STRING OF.
23 STRAIGHT POINTS SCORED BY. JACKSONVILLE. AND NOW THE BRONCOS GO FOR 2. ELWAY FROM THE SHOTGUN, AND.
JACKSONVILLE CALLS TIME. 7:37. MIDPOINT OF THE FOURTH QUARTER, AND JOHN ELWAY, A BIG. 2-POINT-CONVERSION ATTEMPT THAT.
WOULD PULL THE BRONCOS WITHIN A. FIELD GOAL. OR THEY'LL TRAIL BY 5 AND NEED. TWO FIELD GOALS OR A TOUCHDOWN.
WITH A HALF A QUARTER REMAINING. ELWAY, SHOTGUN, SPREAD. FORMATION. DIRECT SNAP TO DAVIS.
IT WORKS! [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> NOW, THAT WAS A GUTSY CALL. >> AN 8-POINT PLAY FOR. TERRELL DAVIS, TOUCHDOWN PLUS 2. >> WHAT MAKES THAT PLAY SO GOOD, THE CALL SO GOOD -- THE DEFENSE, IT TAKES THEM TOO LONG TO REACT.
BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW WHERE. THE FOOTBALL IS. THE LINEBACKERS WERE STANDING. THERE.
THEY WAIT FOR THE OFFENSIVE. LINE TO COME AND BLOCK THEM. BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHERE. THE BALL WAS.
>> JOHN ELWAY JUST WENT IN THE. LOCKER ROOM. >> ELWAY CARRIED OUT HIS FAKE, AND OBVIOUSLY EVERYONE IN THE. STADIUM, INCLUDING JACKSONVILLE, LOOKING AT HIM.
>> BUT WHEN YOU SEE IT -- PHIL, YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT. IT. THE SECONDARY AND THE. LINEBACKERS -- WATCH THEM.
THEY REALLY DON'T KNOW WHERE THE. BALL IS RIGHT NOW. AND THEN THE BLOCKING IS SO GOOD. IN THE OFFENSIVE LINE, TERRELL DAVIS IS THERE FOR THE.
TOUCHDOWN. >> TOM COUGHLIN TRYING TO USE. THAT BODY ENGLISH TO HELP OUT. THE DEFENSE, BUT AN 8-POINT.
PLAY. DAVIS GETS THE TOUCHDOWN AND THE. CONVERSION. HAS 110 TOTAL YARDS NOW, THE.
NFL's OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE. YEAR, TERRELL DAVIS, IN HIS. SECOND SEASON OUT OF GEORGIA, BY. WAY OF CAL STATE -- LONG BEACH.
NOW THIS CROWD HAVING DIFFICULTY. SITTING DOWN. BUCKY BROOKS COMES UP. HAS A SEAM AND OUT TO THE.
26-YARD LINE. >> YOU KNOW, THE DENVER BRONCOS. GOT 8 POINTS, BUT THINK BACK. SINCE THE FIRST QUARTER, DICK.
THE BRONCOS HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO. SLOW THIS JACKSONVILLE OFFENSE. DOWN. >> THEY'VE SCORED EVERY.
POSSESSION SINCE THE FIRST. QUARTER, JACKSONVILLE. MEANS. AND THE BIG POWER BACK ABLE TO.
MANAGE ONLY A YARD. JIM GRAY. >> STEVE ATWATER IS ON THE. BRONCOS' BENCH RIGHT NOW.
ATWATER HAS A BRUISED RIGHT. THIGH. IT IS VERY QUESTIONABLE AS TO IF. HE'LL RETURN.
RIGHT NOW TIM HAUCK IS IN THE. GAME. DICK? ALL RIGHT, THE VETERAN HAUCK. FROM MONTANA, AN UNRESTRICTED.
FREE AGENT FROM GREEN BAY A YEAR. AGO. THERE HE IS. MORE OF A SPECIAL TEAMER THIS.
YEAR. [ CROWD CHEERS ] LISTEN TO THIS CROWD. THEY PICK UP THE BLITZ, AND. BRUNELL SCRAMBLING.
AND SLIDES AT THE 40-YARD LINE. HAUCK THERE TO COVER HIM. FIRST DOWN. SO, ROMANOWSKI ON THE BLITZ.
THEY PICK IT UP, AND THAT LEFT A. BIG AVENUE FOR THE SPRINTING. BRUNELL. >> WELL, WATCH BILL ROMANOWSKI.
COME ON THE OUTSIDE. HE'S COMING SO FAST HE CAN'T GET. UNDER CONTROL, AND LOOK AT THE. HOLE THAT'S CREATED FOR.
MARK BRUNELL. >> HE JUST WAS GONNA TAKE ON. NATRONE. WATCH THIS.
HE GOES RIGHT AFTER NATRONE. HE DOESN'T EVEN LOOK AT THE. QUARTERBACK. "I'M JUST GONNA KNOCK HIM DOWN." AND WHEN HE DOES THAT, BRUNELL'S.
GONE. >> THIRD SCRAMBLE. ONLY 18 YARDS RUSHING FOR. BRUNELL, WHO LED ALL.
QUARTERBACKS -- ALMOST 400 YARDS. ON THE SEASON. MEANS FINDS A LITTLE HOLE, RUNS. THROUGH A TACKLE.
MAKES SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING, THOUGH. FOR A 240-POUNDER, MEANS HAS THE. FEET OF GENE KELLY. HE CAN REALLY -- IT'S THAT.
BARRY SANDERS' STUTTER STEP. >> BUT DON'T TRY TO BLOCK. NATRONE MEANS. WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO DO IS WRAP.
YOUR ARMS AROUND HIM. WATCH NUMBER 37, HAUCK, WHEN HE. COMES IN HERE. HERE COMES MEANS.
NOW WATCH WHAT HE TRIES TO DO. BLOCK HIM. YOU GOT TO GRAB HOLD OF THIS. GUY.
>> A GAIN OF ALMOST 5. CALL IT SECOND AND 5. WHAT A DAY FOR MEANS AGAIN. HE GETS THE CALL.
OFF LEFT TACKLE. RUNS THROUGH A BRONCO TO THE 50. THEY'LL SPOT IT AT THE 49. IT'LL BE VERY CLOSE TO A FIRST.
DOWN. TYRONE BRAXTON ABLE TO MAKE THE. STOP, AND THIS ONE PROBABLY. WILL CALL FOR MEASUREMENT.
>> WELL, WHAT YOU SEE THERE IS. JUST A BIG OFFENSIVE LINE WITH A. BACK BEHIND IT, AND THEY'RE JUST. OVERPOWERING THE DENVER BRONCOS.
>> TIME NOW BECOMES SO CRITICAL. 5:25 LEFT IN THE FOURTH. A 3-POINT GAME. JACKSONVILLE WITH THE BALL AND.
THE LEAD. LET'S SEE IF THIS IS THIRD AND. INCHES OR FIRST DOWN, JAGUARS. >> FIRST DOWN.
THERE'S A 35-POUND DIFFERENCE IN. THE OFFENSIVE LINE AND THE. DEFENSIVE LINE, PHIL. AND WITH NATRONE MEANS BEHIND.
THAT... >> THEY RAN RIGHT BEHIND. BOSELLI. [ CROWD CHEERS ] >> AFTER THEY RUN THIS PLAY.
HERE, THEY'LL BE INSIDE. 5 MINUTES. THIS DEFENSE HAS TO HOLD RIGHT. NOW -- NOT ON THIS SERIES, RIGHT.
HERE. FIRST, SECOND, AND THIRD DOWN. AND MAKE THEM TURN THE BALL. OVER.
>> JAMES STEWART, ONLY A YARD, AT THE 50. TRIPPED UP BY ALAN ALDRIDGE AND. TYRONE BRAXTON, AND BACK IN. COMES THE BIG MAN, NATRONE MEANS.
ATWATER WITH THAT INJURY NOW A. SPECTATOR, WATCHING THE. JUMBOTRON HERE AT. MILE HIGH STADIUM.
BOY, THAT'S A BIG LOSS FOR. THEM, NOT TO HAVE THEIR TOP. TACKLER IN THE SECONDARY. MEANS AND SECOND AND 9.
4 1/2 MINUTES LEFT. TRYING TO KEEP THE BALL AWAY. FROM ELWAY. BRUNELL SLIPS AWAY.
WHAT A MOVE. STILL ON HIS FEET! TO THE SIDELINES AT THE 40. ANOTHER BLOCK! BRUNELL 30, 25, AND DIVES AT THE. 21! OH, MY, WHAT A...! >> AGAIN, IT'S ALMOST THE.
IDENTICAL PLAY THAT WE SAW. EARLIER. THEY BLITZ. THEY GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE AT THE.
LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. THEY TALKED ABOUT, "WE GOT TO. KEEP MARK BRUNELL IN THE. POCKET." WATCH THE LANE HE HAS TO RUN IN.
AGAIN. NOT GOOD DISTRIBUTION BY THE. FRONT OF THE DENVER BRONCOS. AND THEN MARK BRUNELL, WITH HIS.
TALENT, MAKES A LOT OF PEOPLE. MISS. >> ALL RIGHT, NOW WATCH. NUMBER 87.
HERE HE IS ON THE TOP OF THE. SCREEN. >> LESS THAN 4 MINUTES, UNLESS. OVERTIME, TO DECIDE A TEAM'S.
SEASON. BRUNELL, THE STAR, HAS A FIRST. DOWN FOR JACKSONVILLE AT. DENVER'S 21.
THREE TIGHT ENDS. AND NATRONE. WHO DIVES TO THE 19-YARD LINE, A. GAIN OF 2.
OH, THAT RUN BY MARK BRUNELL -- IT'S LIKE, "CALL UP THE. HIGHLIGHT-REEL COMPANY. I'VE GOT SOMETHING FOR YOU." >> WELL, IT IS. WHAT HE'S DONE TODAY REALLY.
WELL, HE'S MANAGING THE GAME. HE DROPS BACK. HE KNOWS THE SITUATION. TAKE NO CHANCES.
HE SEES THE OPENING. HE RUNS, MAKES PEOPLE MISS. HE'S GOT POWER AND SPEED. >> YOU KNOW, THE THING THAT.
REALLY MAKES IT FOR HIM, TOO, IS. WHEN HE'S GO BACK, PHIL, AND HE. FAKES LIKE HE'S GONNA THROW, WHICH HOLDS THE LINEBACKERS. >> THERE'S THE CHAIRMAN OF THE.
BOARD, THE MAN WHO HAS INVESTED. IN THESE JAGUARS, WAYNE WEAVER. MORGAN, HIS GRANDDAUGHTER, WHAT. A THRILL IT MUST BE FOR THAT.
YOUNG LADY, TO BE IN THAT BOX AT. THIS MOMENT. >> WELL, I SAW MR. WEAVER LAST.
NIGHT. I RAN INTO HIM IN THE HOTEL. LOBBY, AND HEY, HE WAS SO. EXCITED, SO NERVOUS LAST NIGHT, I DON'T THINK HE SLEPT A WHOLE.
LOT. PROBABLY GOT LESS SLEEP THAN A. LOT OF THE PLAYERS DID. >> WE'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU A SHOT.
OF PAT BOWLEN, BUT WIN OR LOSE, PAT JUST DOESN'T WANT CAMERAS IN. HIS BOOTH, THE OWNER OF THE. BRONCOS. ONE TIME-OUT LEFT FOR EACH TEAM.
SECOND AND 8. BRUNELL ON THE ROLL. THROWS TO MEANS. NICE TACKLE BY JOHN MOBLEY.
MOBLEY DIDN'T DRIVE HIM OUT OF. BOUNDS TO STOP THE CLOCK. SO, THAT FORCES DENVER TO USE. ITS FINAL TIME-OUT.
>> VERY SAFE PLAY. HERE COMES A LEFT-HANDED. QUARTERBACK RUNNING OUT TO HIS. LEFT.
AND HE HAS MEANS. BUT MOBLEY MAKES A GREAT PLAY AS. A LINEBACKER. NOT ONLY IS HE THERE COVERING, BUT HE ALSO MAKES THE STOP.
SO, IT'LL BE THIRD DOWN NOW AND. ABOUT 6. BUT THE DENVER BRONCOS HAVE NO. MORE TIME-OUTS.
>> IT'LL BE THIRD DOWN AND 5 ON. THE NEXT PLAY. >> WELL, NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS. IS THE BIGGEST DEFENSIVE PLAY.
FOR THE DENVER BRONCOS IN THIS. ENTIRE FOOTBALL GAME, BECAUSE IF. THEY ALLOW THEM TO GET A FIRST. DOWN, THIS GAME WILL BE OVER.
>> THIRD AND A HUGE 5. [ CROWD CHEERS ] BRUNELL. ON THE FADE. TOUCHDOWN TO JIMMY SMITH.
CAN'T THROW IT ANY BETTER. >> CAN'T THROW IT ANY BETTER, CAN'T CATCH IT, BUT, AGAIN, WHAT. A CALL. THEY BLOCK EVERYBODY.
IT'S BASICALLY A ONE-RECEIVER. ROUTE. THEY KNOW DENVER'S GOT TO TAKE A. CHANCE.
COME UP. BLITZ US TO STOP US. THE PERFECT CALL. >> WAS THAT THE PERFECT THROW OR.
WHAT?! >> JIMMY SMITH, WHO SAT ALONE IN. 1994... >> UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT, NUMBER 39 ON THE DEFENSE FOR. THROWING THE HELMET.
IT'LL BE A 15-YARD PENALTY ON. THE KICKOFF. >> RAY CROCKETT. THAT'S JUST A FRUSTRATION.
PENALTY. JIMMY SMITH TWO YEARS AGO. SITTING AT HOME. NOBODY WANTED HIM.
1984, HE WAS OUT OF FOOTBALL, EVEN THOUGH HE WAS A. SECOND-ROUND DRAFT PICK OF. DALLAS IN '81-'82. AND HERE HE IS, TWO YEARS LATER, CAUGHT OVER 80 BALLS AND JUST.
MAKES THAT INCREDIBLE CATCH. HOLLIS' EXTRA POINT. HIGH SNAP. HE KNOCKS IT THROUGH.
AND THE JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS. HAVE QUIETED THIS CROWD, AS THEY. HAVE SIX OTHERS, OTHER THAN THE. ONES IN NORTH FLORIDA, WITH.
INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCES. THIS ONE IS BRUNELL TO SMITH. >> WELL, IT'S JUST A GOOD JOB. LOOK AT THE THROW, THOUGH.
HE THROWS IT ON A LINE, AND. TORY JAMES REALLY DOES NOT HAVE. TIME OR THE SPEED TO CATCH UP. AND REACT TO THE FOOTBALL.
MARK BRUNELL KNOWS IT'S EITHER. GONNA BE A TOUCHDOWN, OR IT'S. GONNA BE INCOMPLETE. TAKE NO CHANCES, AND THE BALL IS.
THROWN TO THE PERFECT SPOT. >> AND, DICK, YOU KNOW ANOTHER. THING? THAT WAS ANOTHER THIRD-DOWN. PLAY, AND JIMMY SMITH ON THIRD.
DOWN LEADS THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE IN. FIRST DOWNS. >> AND MARK BRUNELL ON THIRD.
DOWN IS ONE OF THE BEST. QUARTERBACKS IN THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. THE REASON WHY? HE CAN THROW THE FOOTBALL, AND.
HE CAN RUN WITH IT. REALLY PUTS DEFENSES IN A LOT. OF TOUGH SITUATIONS. >> PAINFUL FOR ATWATER.
INJURED, UNABLE TO BE THERE TO. PARTICIPATE. AND WHAT JACKSONVILLE IS DOING. NOW IS PUTTING ELWAY IN A.
POSITION THAT EVEN THE MIGHTY, ELWAY, TO GET TWO SCORES WITH. NO TIME-OUTS, THAT'S BEYOND. MIRACLE. >> WELL, IT TAKES A SCORE NOW, DICK, AND RECOVERING AN ONSIDE.
KICK, WHICH IS -- YOU'RE RIGHT. THAT'S A CONFIRMED MIRACLE. >> HIS ONLY TIME-OUT'S THE 2:00 WARNING. BUT DOES HAVE 3:39 LEFT.
BRUNELL, HIS NUMBERS, AS YOU. LOOK AT ELWAY'S -- 151 YARDS, ORDINARY FOR HIM AND A. TOUCHDOWN. BRUNELL, ON THE OTHER HAND, HAS.
RUSHED FOR 47 AND THROWN FOR. 246 MORE AND 2 TOUCHDOWN, PLAYED. IMPECCABLY. WHAT A PICKUP THIS WAS.
THE NIGHT BEFORE THE DRAFT, TOM COUGHLIN GOT BRUNELL FROM. GREEN BAY FOR A THIRD- AND. FIFTH-ROUND DRAFT PICK. HOLLIS AFTER THE PENALTY GETS TO.
KICK IT FROM THE 45, SO HE CAN. SEND IT DEEP, AND THE TOUCHBACK. TAKEN BY DENVER AT THE 20-YARD. LINE.
AND HERE COMES JOHN ELWAY. THEY'VE ASKED A LOT OF THIS MAN. AND HIS INCREDIBLE CAREER, AND. HE HAS DELIVERED SO OFTEN IN HIS.
14 GREAT SEASONS. AND WITH ALL THE EXCITEMENT THAT. GOES WITH AN UNDERDOG PULLING. OFF A GREAT UPSET -- AND I.
THINK AMERICA ALWAYS CHEERS. THAT -- ONE STILL HAS TO FEEL. DOWN DEEP FOR THIS MAN, BECAUSE. THIS WAS HIS BEST TEAM, AND HE.
FEELS HE'S AT HIS BEST. AND NOW STANDS DOWN BY 10 WITH. 3 1/2 TO GO. UNDERNEATH, DAVIS.
CLOCK RUNS. SHORT GAIN. >> WELL, THE BIG THING FOR THE. BRONCOS ON THIS DRIVE -- REALLY, DON'T TAKE A CHANCE.
JUST MAKE SURE YOU GIVE. YOURSELF THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET. DOWN AND SCORE AND HOPEFULLY YOU. CAN RECOVER THE ONSIDE KICK.
AFTER YOU SCORE. >> McCAFFREY LEFT. MILLER, THE SPEEDSTER, TO THE. RIGHT.
UNDERNEATH AGAIN. THIS TO CRAVER. THE FULLBACK CLOSE TO A FIRST. DOWN.
IT IS SPOTTED GOOD ENOUGH FOR. THE FIRST DOWN. >> THE ONLY PROBLEM IS WHEN. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THAT, PHIL.
THEY'VE GOT TO SCORE -- REALISTICALLY, THEY'VE GOT TO. SCORE BEFORE THE 2:00 WARNING. NOW, THEY HAVE 50-SOME-ODD. SECONDS TO DO THAT.
THAT WOULD BE THE IDEAL THING. THEN THE STOP OF THE CLOCK, AND. THEN YOU STILL HAVE 2 MINUTES. >> 32-YARD LINE.
CLOCK RUNS -- 2:48, 2:47. VERY LOOSE, DEEP DEFENSE FOR. JACKSONVILLE. BUT ELWAY TESTS IT, ANYWAY.
AND McCAFFREY CAN'T GET THERE AT. THE 30. >> THE ONLY OTHER PROBLEM WITH. THIS WHOLE SCENARIO IS THIS.
DEFENSIVELY, THEY HAVE NOT. STOPPED JACKSONVILLE SINCE THE. FIRST QUARTER. SO, EVEN IF THEY DO SCORE, THEY.
HAVEN'T REALLY STOPPED. JACKSONVILLE. >> WELL, I KNOW, BUT THEY'RE. GOING ON THE ONSIDE KICK.
THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT. JACKSONVILLE. >> I'M JUST SAYING. IF THEY GET THE BALL BACK -- 2 MINUTES I'M TALKING ABOUT.
>> WELL, IT WAS NOVEMBER 1993 THAT THE JAGUARS WERE THE 30th FRANCHISE THAT THE. NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE. AWARDED. A MERE TWO YEARS OF PLAY, THEY.
STAND ON THE THRESHOLD OF. BACK-TO-BACK INCREDIBLE UPSETS. IN THEIR FIRST PLAYOFF. APPEARANCES.
UNDERNEATH AND THROUGH THE HANDS. OF ANTHONY MILLER. THAT'S THE PLAY THEY WANTED. A MAN WITH SPEED, EVEN THOUGH.
IT'S A SHORT PASS, WIDE OPEN, WHERE HE COULD DO SOMETHING. BUT HE DIDN'T CATCH THE BALL. >> HEY, DICK? YOU THINK ABOUT SOMETHING FOR A. SECOND.
JACKSONVILLE WALKS OUT OF THIS. GAME, AND CAROLINA WINS, YOU MAY. HAVE THE TWO EXPANSION TEAMS IN. THE SUPER BOWL AFTER TWO YEARS.
IT'S POSSIBLE. >> WELL, THIS HAS PLAGUED THE. BRONCOS ALL DAY. DROPPED PASSES.
ANTHONY MILLER SLOWING UP. THERE'S NOBODY IN FRONT OF HIM. KEEP MOVING. CATCH THE BALL ON THE RUN AND.
MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN. >> YEAH, THE WHOLE IDEA THERE. WAS TO LEAD HIM SO HE COULD USE. ALL THAT SPEED.
AND MIKE LODISH, REPRESENTING. THE EMOTIONS ON THE BRONCOS. SIDE. DRILLS THIS ONE TO THE SIDELINES.
COMPLETE AND OUT OF BOUNDS TO. STOP THE CLOCK. ANTHONY MILLER AT THE 48-YARD. LINE.
MICKEY WASHINGTON ON THE. COVERAGE FOR JACKSONVILLE. >> AND IF THEY'RE GONNA GIVE YOU. THIS, THIS IS A GOOD THROW AND A.
CATCH BY ELWAY AND MILLER TO GET. THAT BALL DOWN ABOUT 15 YARDS. DOWNFIELD AND GET OUT OF BOUNDS. THIS PLAY ONLY TAKES ABOUT 5 OR.
6 SECONDS. >> GOOD JOB BY. MICKEY WASHINGTON. KNOW THE SITUATION.
KNOW WHERE YOU'RE AT IN THE. GAME. THE ONLY THING THAT REALLY HURTS. YOU IS GIVING UP A BIG PLAY.
GIVE UP THE COMPLETIONS TO THE. SIDELINE. >> THEY FLOOD THREE TO THE. RIGHT.
THAT USUALLY MEANS THEY THROW. LEFT. AND ELWAY DOES TO MILLER, AND. MILLER INSIDE THE 35-YARD LINE.
WITH 2:20 LEFT IN THIS GAME. 30-20, JACKSONVILLE LEADS. ELWAY AT WORK. HE'LL DOWN THE BALL.
SAVE SOME TIME. 2:11 LEFT. FLAG DOWN. >> OH, YEAH, THEY CAUGHT.
TONY BRACKENS JUST KIND OF. LOAFING BACK ONSIDE, AND ELWAY. TOOK A LOOK AT HIM ON THE LEFT. SAW THAT HE WASN'T ONSIDE AND.
JUST TOOK THAT BALL, THREW IT. DOWN. AND THERE'S GONNA BE A 5-YARD. PENALTY.
>> OFFSIDE... >> YOU BET. >> ...NUMBER 90 ON THE DEFENSE. 5 YARDS, STILL FIRST DOWN.
[ CROWD CHEERS ] >> EVERY LITTLE GIFT HELPS AT. THIS POINT. >> YOU CAN SEE TONY BRACKENS NOT. HUSTLING ENOUGH TO GET BACK.
ONSIDE. ALSO, GET THE 5-YARD PENALTY. THE CLOCK IS STOPPED. NOW YOU GET A CHANCE -- ONE, MAYBE TWO PLAYS BEFORE THE 2:00 WARNING COMES ABOUT.
>> FIRST DOWN AT THE 29-YARD. LINE. AGAIN, SAME FORMATION, WITH. MILLER LEFT, THREE.
WIDE RECEIVERS RIGHT. DAVIS IN THE BACKFIELD WITH. ELWAY. THROWS TO MILLER AGAIN.
SAME THING. 15 AND TACKLED THERE. WASHINGTON AND DAVIS, MASSEY. AND THAT IS THE 2:00 WARNING.
HOME OF THE JAGUARS AND THE. FANS, THAT TOWN AND THAT AREA, ENRAPTURED BY THE PERFORMANCE OF. THIS YOUNG TEAM. BEATS BUFFALO.
BUFFALO NEVER LOST AT. RICH STADIUM IN THE PLAYOFFS, 9-0. TRYING TO BEAT DENVER, 8-1 IN. THEIR PLAYOFF HISTORY HERE IN.
DENVER. 2:00 TO GO. ELWAY AT THE JACKSONVILLE 15. LOOKS TO THE END ZONE.
SEARCHING FOR AN OPEN MAN. WHAT TIME HE HAS. NOW HE GUNS IT. TOUCHDOWN, McCAFFREY! [ CROWD CHEERS ] JOHN ELWAY'S LAST 4 PASSES -- 16, 18, 14, 15 TO McCAFFREY FOR.
THE PAYOFF. AND WITH THE EXTRA POINT NOW BY. ELAM, DENVER WILL BE WITHIN 3. OH, NO! IT GOES THROUGH! HIT THE UPRIGHT AND CAROMED IN.
AND WHO KNOWS BETTER THAT. FEELING THAN JACKSONVILLE? THAT WOULD HAVE FORCED THE. BRONCOS, EVEN IF THEY RECOVER AN. ONSIDE KICK, TO GO FOR A.
TOUCHDOWN. >> I MEAN, THIS IS A HUGE HOOK, AND IT HITS THE UPRIGHT ON THE. TOP ON THE LEFT. WATCH THIS.
HE JUST HOOKS THIS THING WAY. LEFT. IT HITS THE UPRIGHT AND THEN. GOES IN.
>> STARTED WITH THE BAD SNAP. THE TIMING WAS OFF. AND ELWAY GOES, "WHOA." WELL, IT WENT THROUGH. THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE. TOUCHDOWN, A WONDERFUL JOB BY. JOHN ELWAY, BUYING TIME. THERE'S NOBODY OPEN, AND THE.
RECEIVERS FOR THE BRONCOS KEEP. MOVING AROUND THE END ZONE. ED McCAFFREY FINALLY GETS FREE. AND WATCH HIM GO UP.
BALL BEHIND HIM. AND MAKES A NICE CATCH. WATCH ED McCAFFREY. HE SEES THAT JOHN ELWAY IS IN.
TROUBLE. HERE HE IS, NUMBER 87 IN THE. MIDDLE. TO THE TOP OF YOUR SCREEN.
STARTS MOVING BACK ACROSS THE. END ZONE. KEEPS MOVING TILL ELWAY SPOTS. HIM.
NICE CATCH. >> JOHN ELWAY REACTING TO THE. TOUCHDOWN. WHAT A DRIVE.
HE USED ONLY 1:49 TO GO 80 YARDS. IN 8 PLAYS WITHOUT A TIME-OUT. AND NOW THE WHOLE GAME RESTS ON. THIS ONSIDE KICK.
IF JACKSONVILLE RECOVERS, DENVER, NO TIME-OUTS, THE GAME. LITERALLY IS OVER. IT'S JUST A COUPLE OF. KNEEL-DOWNS.
ONE MAN STAYS BACK. >> THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE ANYBODY. BACK. JACKSONVILLE'S GOT A GUY ON THE.
32-YARD LINE. >> COVERED BY Le'SHAI MASTON. Le'SHAI MASTON. IT WAS TOO EASY -- JUST A NICE, LITTLE ONE-HOPPER, AND MASTON.
RECOVERS AT THE 40-YARD LINE. AND TOM COUGHLIN'S DISCIPLINED. JAGUAR TEAM NOW IS 1:50 AWAY. FROM THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP.
>> IT'S A GOOD IDEA. KICK IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE. FIELD. THERE'S LESS PEOPLE FOR THE.
JAGUARS IN THE MIDDLE. BUT THE BALL TAKES A. JACKSONVILLE BOUNCE RIGHT UP. INTO HIS HANDS.
>> THAT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS. I THINK YOU TRY TO TOP THE BALL. A LITTLE BIT SO IT'LL TAKE A. BOUNCE AND THEN POP UP IN THE.
AIR, WHERE YOU HAVE A SHOT AT. IT. >> THE BOUNCE FOR JACKSONVILLE. HAS BEEN MAGICAL, HASN'T IT? A COUPLE OF UPRIGHT KISSES.
WHEN YOU THINK BACK, IF YOU HAD. ONE KICKER IN THE LEAGUE THIS. YEAR, MAYBE IN HISTORY, TO KICK. A 30-YARD FIELD GOAL, WOULDN'T.
YOU WANT TO PICK. MORTEN ANDERSEN? >> WELL, THAT'S RIGHT. THEY GOT THAT BREAK, BUT I TELL. YOU TODAY, THEY DIDN'T GET MANY.
BOUNCES THEIR WAY. THEY CREATED THEIR OWN. OPPORTUNITIES. THEY OUTPLAYED THE.
DENVER BRONCOS AND DESERVE TO. WIN THE GAME. >> SO, BRUNELL, CERTAINLY THE. STAR, WITH HIS PASSING AND.
RUNNING, WITH ONE OF THE. KNEEL-DOWNS, AND THE FLAGS FALL. WITH IT. THAT'LL STOP THE CLOCK WITH.
1:45. >> YOU GOT OFFSIDE ON THE DENVER. DEFENSE, WHICH DOESN'T -- IT. JUST STOPS THE CLOCK.
>> AND, PAUL, YOU SAID WE COULD. HAVE TWO EXPANSION TEAMS IN THE. SUPER BOWL? WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? I DIDN'T THINK JACKSONVILLE HAD. A CHANCE TODAY.
>> ...NUMBER 95 ON THE DEFENSE. 5 YARDS. STILL FIRST DOWN. >> WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING? >> IF IT HAPPENED, I COULD SAY I.
WOULDN'T BE TOTALLY SHOCKED. ANYMORE. >> WELL, YOU -- WE'LL REPEAT. WHAT YOU SAID IN THE PREGAME.
SHOW. I KNOW YOU'LL APPRECIATE THAT, PHIL SIMMS. >> YEAH. >> WHEN I ASKED YOU IF.
JACKSONVILLE HAD A CHANCE, YOU. SAID, "WELL, ONLY IF... >> "PAUL MAGUIRE'S BEAUTIFUL." >> I'M THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GUY. HERE.
>> OH, WELL. >> [ LAUGHS ] >> AT THE 36, 1:45. STILL FIRST DOWN AND 5. >> I REMEMBER WHEN TOM COUGHLIN, BEFORE HE WENT DOWN THERE AND.
STARTED COACHING THIS TEAM, WE. TALKED ONE DAY, AND HE ASKED ME, "DID THEY PASS A RULE IN THE. LEAGUE WHERE I'M NOT ALLOWED TO. HAVE DISCIPLINE AND TEACH.
FUNDAMENTALS TO THESE PLAYERS? IS THERE A RULE THAT SAYS I. CAN'T DO THESE THINGS?" NO, TOM, THERE ISN'T. YOUR WAY WORKS. WE ALWAYS KNEW IT.
YOU GOT SOME CRITICISM FOR IT, BUT IT'S REALLY TURNED OUT WELL. THE PLAYERS ACCEPTED IT. AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY. THEY'RE WHERE THEY ARE NOW.
>> 39 SECONDS. ONE MORE KNEEL-DOWN BY BRUNELL, AND IT'LL BE THEN OFFICIAL. BY THE SAME SCORE AS. JACKSONVILLE DEFEATED BUFFALO A.
WEEK AGO, 30-27. WE TOLD YOU AT THE VERY START. THAT TOM COUGHLIN HAS A THEME. FOR EVERY GAME, AS OWNER WEAVER.
CELEBRATES. "WITH SUCCESS COMES GREATER. CHALLENGE." WELL, THEY TAKE ANOTHER BIG, BIG. STEP UP THE MOUNTAIN, THE.
CHALLENGE EVEN HIGHER NEXT WEEK. THEY'RE PLAYING FOR THE. AFC CHAMPIONSHIP -- ONE GAME. AWAY FROM PLAYING IN THE.
SUPER BOWL. THE JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS HAVE. UPSET DENVER, 30-27..
