No he didn't. He compiled the worst passing stats in the league. If not for some braincramping by the coaches of the Raiders, Chiefs, Dolphins, and Bears they would have gone 3 and 8. And, they beat the Bears when they were without their starting QB and RB.

When he played against smart defenses, the Broncos got stomped.
