It seems to me that both Simien and Lynch are playing not to lose.  Half of their completions were  for 5 yards on third and long and the defense was giving it to them, Kyle was the only QB that made a play down field when it mattered . Third string or not it was a big time play.  I can't recall simeon doing that once last year.  If the Bronco's concede every third and long this year with dink passes, we are going to find them 8 and 8 or worse.
