    Elam, Davis lead Broncos to victory while setting records
Denver beats the Jaguars
ofJacksonville 3 7-24
and stays undefeated
By John Mossman
The Associated Press
DENVER — Jason Elam kicked
himself into the NFL record book,
while Terrell Davis ran into some
pretty good company, too.
Elam tied a 28-year-old NFL
record with a 63-yard field goal
and Davis rushed for three touch
downs to lead the Denver Broncos
to a 37-24 victory over the Jack
sonville Jaguars on Sunday. Den
ver is 7-0 for the first time in its his
tory.
Elam’s kick at the end of the first
half matched the 63-yarder New
Orleans’ Tom Dempsey kicked in
1970.
"It’s an old record, and I’m
proud to have a piece of it,” Elam
said. “I swung about as hard as I
can swing at it. I hit it really
clean.”
Davis, the NFL’s rushing
leader, ran for 136 yards to reach
1,001 yards for the season, mak
ing him only the third player in
NFL history to reach 1,000 in sev
en games. He joins Jim Brown
(1958) and O.J. Simpson (1973
and 1975) as the only players to
do it in seven games.
Davis’ performance snapped
an NFL-best string of 18 regular
season games in which Jack
sonville (5-2) had not allowed an
individual 100-yard rusher.
Davis’ 37-yard scoring run ear
ly in the fourth quarter proved to
be the clincher, giving the Bron
cos a 34-17 lead. John Elway
completed 21 of 35 passes for 295
yards and a touchdown for the
Broncos.
Jacksonville’s Mark Brunell
was 28-of-46 for 353 yards and
three touchdowns, but he was
sacked seven times.
Overall, the Broncos, turnover
free for the fourth time this sea
son, generated 465 yards to 348
for the Jaguars.
“They are an exceptional
team,” Jacksonville coach Tom
Coughlin said. “We aren’t play
ing at their level right now. We
played real sound against the
run, and then Terrell would have
a big play against us. We compet
ed, but we had trouble protecting
our quarterback.”
Davis ran for two first-half
touchdowns and Elam kicked his
63-yarder as time expired in the
half, giving Denver a 27-10 lead.
Davis' 16-yard run and Elway's
20-yard pass to Shannon Sharpe
and 26-yarder to Ed McCaffrey
on Denver’s opening possession
set up Elam’s 31-yard field goal.
The Jaguars countered with
Mike Hollis’ 45-yard field goal.
Elway put the Broncos ahead
10-3 on the first play of the sec
ond quarter with a 41-yard scor
ing pass to McCaffrey on a cross
ing pattern that beat cornerback
Aaron Beasley.
It triggered a 24-point quarter
for the Broncos.
Brunell fumbled a snap and
Denver’s Keith Traylor recovered
at the Jaguars 9.
Just 23 seconds later, the
Jaguars got their first touchdown.
Reggie Barlow, faking a pass on a
kickoff return, ran 91 yards to the
Denver 4, and Brunell hit rookie
running back Fred Taylor with a
TD pass on the next play.
