Broncos putting Rahim Moore’s blunder behind them
The Denver Broncos are moving on from Rahim Moore’s ghastly misplay that led to Jacoby Jones’ game-tying touchdown in the playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
“I think he’s over it; I think we’re all over it, you know,” defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio told The Associated Press. “I think we all look back and see things that we could have done better…. We want to feel the sting of what went bad. And we want to get ready to be better this year.”
Both John Elway and coach John Fox have talked up Moore recently, underscoring the young safety’s advances in his second season, and hoping he improves his play in an equivalent manner in 2013. Del Rio echoed those thoughts.
