The Rams answered with five-play, 75-yard drive and Oliver Lundberg went 9 yards for a score to make it 8-7.

On the next drive, Riley took a handoff on fourth-and-1 from the Rams 42, made one cut and raced untouched to the end zone for his second score of the quarter.

On their next possession, Cutforth found Matt Wagner for a 15-yard score and the Broncos led 22-7 with 5:12 left in the first quarter.
