BALTIMORE (AP) — It's time to find out how the Denver Broncos react to a defeat.

If they're fortunate, they'll bounce back in the same fashion the Baltimore Ravens did after losing three in a row.

The Ravens dropped Denver from the ranks of the unbeaten in embarrassing fashion yesterday, dominating virtually all facets of the game in a 30-7 rout.

The Ravens were in danger of falling under .500 and out of the AFC North race and responded with a dominating effort.

The Broncos (6-1) came in with the NFL's top-ranked defense, a plus-7 turnover differential and one of the league's best kick returners in Eddie Royal. Denver had also outscored the opposition 76-10 after halftime.

Their next game is Nov. 9 against the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.
