On the first play, the New York Jets nearly got a safety on a wide receiver screen to Eddie Royal, but safety Jim Leonard whiffed on the tackle and Royal picked up 8 yards. Quarterback Tim Tebow then picked up 15-yards on a scramble and the Broncos offense got rolling. On a combination of short passes and read option plays, the Broncos worked their way down to the Jets 20-yard line.
