Marshall catches NFL record 21 passes
INDIANAPOLIS — Brandon Marshall didn't enjoy his single-game receptions record much.
That's because his 21 grabs came in Denver's 28-16 loss to Indianapolis on Sunday.
"I believe it was one of those games where, whenever you accomplish something like that, it definitely feels good," he said. "But we have goals, and our only goal is to win games."
Marshall surpassed the mark San Francisco's Terrell Owens set on Dec. 17, 2000. He finished with 200 yards and two touchdowns and bettered his team record of 18 catches, set on Sept. 14, 2008.
He tied Owens' mark on a 5-yard touchdown pass from Kyle Orton in the fourth quarter. He set the record on Denver's final offensive play when he gained 7 yards on a fourth-down play.
