Summary

The second half started worse than the first half did for the Broncos. They tried to keep the ball away from Harvin, hitting a short pop on the kickoff, but Harvin came up to get it and broke it for a back-breaking touchdown.

The Broncos again were able to move the ball on their next drive, but again stalled and punted from the Seattle’ 39.

Denver forced Seattle into its first punt of the game on the next drive, but couldn’t take advantage when Demaryius Thomas fumbled on Denver’s next drive.

Seattle took the ball at the Denver 42 and drove 58 yards for a touchdown.

Down 36-0, Denver finally found the end zone on the last play of the quarter as Thomas capped an 80-play drive with a TD catch. The Broncos went for two and converted on a pass to Wes Welker.
