The Broncos were making their second consecutive (and third overall) Super Bowl appearance, after posting a 10–4–1 regular season record, largely through the strength of their quarterback, <a href="/wiki/John_Elway" title="John Elway">John Elway</a>.

But offensive tackle <a href="/wiki/Dave_Studdard" title="Dave Studdard">Dave Studdard</a>, blocking defensive end <a href="/wiki/Dexter_Manley" title="Dexter Manley">Dexter Manley</a>, went down with a knee injury. After Elway threw an incomplete pass on third down, Karlis missed a 43-yard field goal attempt wide left. On the first play of the Redskins' ensuing drive, Williams threw a 16-yard pass to Clark. Then on the next play, Smith took off for a 58-yard touchdown run, with blocking from guard <a href="/wiki/Raleigh_McKenzie" title="Raleigh McKenzie">Raleigh McKenzie</a> and offensive tackle <a href="/wiki/Joe_Jacoby" title="Joe Jacoby">Joe Jacoby</a>, increasing their lead to 21–10.<sup id="cite_ref-Redskins_pull_Bronc-Buster_15-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Redskins_pull_Bronc-Buster-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Washington's offensive line featuring McKenzie and Jacoby figured greatly in a play known as the Counter Gap, which the Redskins ran repeatedly in the game.<sup id="cite_ref-One_Super_Show_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-One_Super_Show-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Redskins again forced a Broncos punt and increased their lead to 28–10 in three plays, the last two of which consisted of passes from Williams to Sanders; the first for 11 yards, and the second for a 50-yard touchdown, which made Sanders the first player in Super Bowl history to catch two touchdowns in one quarter. Three plays after the ensuing kickoff, Washington cornerback <a href="/wiki/Barry_Wilburn" title="Barry Wilburn">Barry Wilburn</a> intercepted a pass intended for Nattiel on the Redskins 21, and once again, the Redskins stormed down the field to score. First, Smith broke loose for a 43-yard run, then Williams completed a pair of passes to Sanders for 28 yards to reach the Denver 7. Two plays later, Williams threw the fifth Washington touchdown of the quarter, an 8-yard pass to tight end <a href="/wiki/Clint_Didier" title="Clint Didier">Clint Didier</a> to make the score 35–10. On Denver's next drive, Elway completed three consecutive passes for 40 total yards (including a 24-yard pass to Jackson) to advance to the Redskins 36. However, cornerback <a href="/wiki/Brian_Davis_(American_football)" title="Brian Davis (American football)">Brian Davis</a> intercepted Elway's next pass at the 21 to end the half. </p><p>In the second quarter alone, Williams completed 9 of 11 passes for 228 yards and four touchdowns; Smith rushed five times for 122 yards and a touchdown; and Sanders caught five passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns. The Redskins scored 35 points and gained 356 yards in total offense, both Super Bowl records, and scored five touchdowns on 18 total offensive plays. </p><p>During the regular season, the Broncos had allowed 35 points for the entire game only once—and it was in that game, a 40–10 loss to the <a href="/wiki/1987_Houston_Oilers_season" title="1987 Houston Oilers season">Houston Oilers</a> in Week 4, that they fielded replacement players, with the regular players having gone on strike. </p><p>Washington's 25-point lead at the half surpassed the previous record of 20 points set by <a href="/wiki/San_Francisco_49ers" title="San Francisco 49ers">San Francisco</a> in <a href="/wiki/Super_Bowl_XVI" title="Super Bowl XVI">Super Bowl XVI</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Second_half">Second half</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Super_Bowl_XXII&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Second half"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Broncos' second consecutive Super Bowl appearance continued to go downhill in the second half as the Redskins shut them out for the rest of the game. On Denver's first possession of the second half, Elway was intercepted again by Wilburn. Washington then drove to the Denver 29-yard line, aided by a 15-yard run by Bryant and a 12-yard reception by Clark, but kicker <a href="/wiki/Ali_Haji-Sheikh" title="Ali Haji-Sheikh">Ali Haji-Sheikh</a>'s 46-yard field goal attempt hit the right upright of the goal post. On the Redskins' next possession, their only turnover of the game was recorded when Williams threw a deep pass intended for Clark that was intercepted by cornerback <a href="/wiki/Jeremiah_Castille" title="Jeremiah Castille">Jeremiah Castille</a> at the Broncos 2-yard line. Elway then managed to escape a safety by completing a 10-yard pass to Jackson from his own end zone. After another punt by the Broncos, Clark delivered a 25-yard run on a reverse to start the Redskins' next possession and end the third quarter. </p><p>Clark's run was the start of a four-play, 68-yard scoring drive, which also featured three runs by Smith for 43 yards, the last one being a 4-yard touchdown run to bring the game to its final score of 42–10. On the Broncos' next possession, Elway appeared to complete a 33-yard pass to wide receiver <a href="/wiki/Vance_Johnson" title="Vance Johnson">Vance Johnson</a> on 4th-and-17, but this was nullified by a holding penalty on center <a href="/wiki/Mike_Freeman_(guard)" title="Mike Freeman (guard)">Mike Freeman</a>, bringing up 4th-and-27, and forcing yet another Denver punt. Washington then reached the Denver 13 to run out the clock and win the game. </p><p>By the end of the game, Elway was sacked five times and threw three interceptions. Smith finished the game with a Super Bowl record 204 rushing yards, and scored two touchdowns. Sanders caught nine passes for 193 yards and two touchdowns, and returned three kickoffs for 46 yards. His 193 receiving yards and his 235 total offensive yards were both Super Bowl records, and his 80-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter also tied a Super Bowl record. Clark caught three passes for 55 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing once for 25 yards. Wilburn recorded two interceptions, while Walton had two sacks. Meanwhile, running back Gene Lang was the Broncos' leading rusher, with only 38 yards on five carries. Elway finished the game with 14 out of 38 pass completions for 257 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. He was also Denver's second-leading rusher with 32 yards on three carries; this was the only Super Bowl in which Elway played without scoring a rushing touchdown. Jackson was Denver's top receiver with four catches for 76 yards. </p><p>In 2015, on the occasion of <a href="/wiki/Super_Bowl_50" title="Super Bowl 50">Super Bowl 50</a>, <i><a href="/wiki/Slate_(website)" class="mw-redirect" title="Slate (website)">Slate</a></i> writer Justin Peters watched all the games over a two-month period. He considered Super Bowl XXII to be the best Super Bowl ever, declaring it was, "The most significant Super Bowl ever played. The most unlikely comeback from the most unlikely quarterback, Doug Williams, who led his team to score 35 points in the second quarter: a single-quarter Super Bowl scoring record that still
