Brandon McManus Stays Perfect In Defeat
3 years agoDenver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus stayed perfect on the season in the 27-19 Week 5 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, making both of his field goals (long of 39 yards) and his lone extra-point try. Both of Denver's field-goal chances came in the first half. Trailing big in the second half, the Broncos didn't have the luxury of settling for field goals in their comeback attempt, and they went for two after their second touchdown. In terms of accuracy and leg power, the 30-year-old is among the best in the NFL. However, the conservative and tedious nature of Denver's offense overall will make McManus merely a borderline streaming option in 12-team leagues for much of the season.
