Brandon McManus Busy In Win Over Jets
4 years agoDenver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus had easily his best game of the young 2020 season in the Thursday night victory over the Jets in Week 4. It helped that he and the Denver offense were facing a porous Jets Defense. McManus made all three of his field-goal attempts, including two 50-plus-yarders, and all four of his extra points in the 37-28 win. It's a bit surprising that the Broncos put up 37 points in quarterback Brett Rypien's first career start, but it was against the now 0-4 Jets. Denver's final touchdown also came with the game essentially over late in the fourth quarter on a 40-plus-yard run by Melvin Gordon III. Against better competition like in their upcoming Week 5 matchup against the Patriots, the Broncos offense won't move the ball as consistently, which will make McManus a tough sell as a starting fantasy kicker.
