Broncos coach Vic Fangio visibly furious with how Ravens set rushing record

By Chelena Goldman | Last updated 10/4/21

Not everyone is happy the Baltimore Ravens set a league rushing record on Sunday, especially the team they defeated in the process.

The Broncos, particularly head coach Vic Fangio, were visibly livid as the Ravens rushed for five yards in the final seconds of play on Sunday in what ended up being a 23-7 win for Baltimore. Denver was already dealing with losing quarterback Teddy Bridgewater to a concussion and suffering its first loss of the season in epic fashion when the Ravens ran the ball instead of taking a knee.

Fangio tried to downplay his anger when addressing the media postgame.

"We're on the next game," he said bluntly. "We can't have a hangover from this game."

While there is no actual written rule saying the winning team needs to kneel in the final seconds of a game, it's easy to see why the Broncos were upset with what the Ravens did.

To add insult to injury, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson commented postgame that he didn't even care about setting the rushing record in the first place.

"I (don't) really care about the record," Jackson said. "I wasn't thinking about that. I was thinking about winning the game."
