The Denver Broncos are in Seattle to face the Seahawks in week 3 for a highly anticipated rematch of last year’s Super Bowl. Obviously the Broncos entered this one hoping to make it a more competitive game than the Super Bowl was, but points have still been predictably hard to come by against that stingy Seattle defense.

The Broncos have been able to move the ball with limited success, but they were not able to put a touchdown on the board until the fourth quarter. To show just how tough things have been for them, they needed a turnover from their defense to even get down in the red zone to capitalize on this opportunity.

Julius Thomas snagged a shovel pass from Peyton Manning to put the team’s first touchdown on the board.

Thomas now have five touchdowns in the season in the first three games, establishing him as one of Manning’s favorite targets this season.
