That, plus the guys they had on the field were overall bad. Rodgers-Cromartie was cut by the worst D in football, the Eagles.
Then, the lost Woodyard, Ayers and Chris Harris to injuries in the game.
It's no secret Denver's D is horrible. Losing Dumervil was devastating and they're really missing Von Miller too.
They were ranked 30th against the pass BEFORE this game, with Bailey on the field.
