Whats upwith him running out of bounds when he can clearly pick up another 3 to4 yards easy.

The 2nd time at the end of the game he stepped out of bounds and left us 1 FREAKING yard shy of a 1st down. We didnt pick it up and we had to punt from around the Fifty.

Key could have easy lower his shoulder and picked up3 more yards! This is the end of the game and our big 6' 2" 210 lbs can run into a safty to pick up the first?

only part I agree with, is that Key should have used his size and bulldozed the miniscule corner, it was foolish to run out of bounds, even if he picked up the 1st as he ran out of bounds...he stopped the clock late in the 4th! but c'mon, he left us a yard shy of the 1st, and we couldn't convert, a measly yard, that speaks to more than just Key, it speaks to our inability to gain tough yards on the ground, you must look at the bigger picture my friend...

Blaming losses like today's on one player is too simplistic -- even blaming it on Cundiff. As someone else mentioned, had Cundiff made that kick, who knows how Denver's offense would have responded. Then we'd be sitting here blaming our defense.

101, step away from the crack pipe. Key is def. not to blame for this loss.

I'd put this one squarely on the Kicker. And then on Drew for throwing that second 3&1 audible to Glenn on WR Screen once we were forced to try and win it again after that missed 34 yard chip shot. Maybe a little on Bill too, for playing Julius so much today over the up 'n coming MBIII. But not on Key, one of our 3 best warriors.

I was also confused when it became 2nd down. I didn't see Key go out of bounds until several yards after passing the first down marker.

I can't believe the guys in the booth didn't mention that.

I looked at that play over and over and still didn't see Key step out, but like was previously said, there were some people blocking the view.
