Factoid

Knowshon can't lift Denver

Moreno runs for 224 but still loses

Knowshon Moreno ran for 224 yards, and the Broncos still lost. That's unusual. Since the move to the 16-game season in 1978, only seven times has a running back gone for 200 yards and still not won.

Oddly, this has no happened 3 times in less than a year. Adrian Peterson and Jamaal Charles did it last year.

From 1978 thru most of 2012, it happened only four times.
