The Denver Broncos extended their win streak to seven games on Thursday Night Football with a sloppy 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The overreaction to that performance feels extreme after watching last night’s equally sloppy 10-7 prime time game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers. The fact remains that Denver is winning and until that trend is broken, they are clearly a good football team.
Good football teams have issues to clean up, however, and the main issue is with Bo Nix and the passing game. Sean Payton must figure out how to settle Nix down...

It’s Chiefs week for the Broncos and a game that qualifies as a “must win” for both teams.
The Broncos sit at 8-2, have won 7 straight games, lead the AFC West and are currently the number 2 seed in the AFC. A win over the Chiefs will silence any all doubters, extend their lead in the division over the Chiefs, and set them up for a long postseason run coming out of their BYE week.
However, a loss, while not the end of the world, will set the Broncos back to 8-3, only make the doubters louder, and keep...

It’s no secret that it is Vance Joseph’s defense keeping the Broncos in first place in the AFC West at 8-2.
And when the Broncos host the Chiefs next weekend, a victory will probably come down to the defense again.
After all, this defense has the most sacks in the NFL (46) and making Patrick Mahomes uncomfortable will be key to any chance at beating the Chiefs.
While that 46 team sacks is very cool, don’t think for a second that Broncos’ defenders aren’t keeping tabs on who has how many sacks each game.
“As a defensive lineman that’s your...

The Green Bay Packers (5-2-1) are coming off a brutal loss last week in a likely ‘trap game’ situation for them as they looked ahead to host the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles (6-2). This should be a premier NFC matchup that could end up determining playoff seeding a month from now, so both teams will likely be bringing their best in this one.
Kickoff is set for Monday, November 10, 2025 at 6:15 p.m. Mile High time at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin and will air on ESPN/ABC.
According to FanDuel, the Eagles are...

The Denver Broncos posted on X Monday afternoon that inside linebacker Alex Singleton had undergone surgery for testicular cancer last Friday, which had been diagnosed last week.
The team reported Singleton is recovering well, and that it appears they caught the cancer early. Pending additional test results, doctors are optimistic the team captain can return to play this season.
“Our No. 1 priority is Alex’s health and well-being,” the team posted.
Singleton had just played the night before in the prime-time matchup with the Raiders, where No. 49 was a big part of the defensive dominance, logging nine total tackles....

We are nearly through 10 weeks of the 2025 NFL season, and it is a great time to take a look at the AFC playoff picture. It is rather early, but we have three teams at the top of the AFC with an 8-2 record. The Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots, and our Denver Broncos (Is it 2013 again?). After that, you have several teams fighting for a wildcard spot and an AFC North division title that could go to a team that started 1-5.
Oh, and if the playoffs started today (they do not), the Kansas City Chiefs would...

You are what your record says you are in the NFL. The Broncos got another notch in the win column this week. At the end of the day, that’s all that matters.
This isn’t what the Denver Broncos will look like most weeks. I think this short week made things exceptionally hard for the team, and they didn’t take to the two walk-through-only practices well at all. This young offense needs reps and practice. Even when they have normal weeks, they struggle to execute at times.
The game wasn’t pretty. The offense looked inept. The play calling was frustrating. The...

After Thursday’s snoozer against the Raiders, it’s imperative the Broncos come out ready to play against the Chiefs. Yes, the Broncos are 8-2 for the first time in forever and, yes, they did beat a division opponent in Las Vegas, but there is clearly something missing with this team… at least in the first 3-quarters of what feels like every game.
There is so much good to love about this team. JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey chew up yards on the ground (when they’re given the ball). Bo Nix has moments of quarterback brilliance. The defense. All of them. What’s...

Bettors think the 8-2 Denver Broncos are frauds. They are officially underdogs at home to the 5-4 Kansas City Chiefs next week. Despite having three more wins and two fewer losses than the Chiefs, the Broncos’ seven game win streak was so terrible that they are expected to lose at home in the biggest game of the regular season. That’s rough.
According to FanDuel, the Broncos are 3.5-point home underdogs against the Chiefs in Week 11. The over/under stands at 45.5 for this matchup.

Welcome to Week 10 of the regular season!
The Denver Broncos are safely at home enjoying an 8-2 record after extending their win streak to 7 games. That keeps the pressure on the other AFC West contenders to keep winning, but only the Chargers will have that chance today.
With Denver holding the number one seed in the AFC for now, it would be good for them if the Colts and Patriots crashed and burned this morning. That would give them a full game lead in the AFC. Other teams we’d want to see lose would be the Ravens just...

Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos finally get a breather.
As Adam Schefter tweeted on Saturday morning, during their NFL-best seven-game winning streak, the Broncos’ seven wins in a 39-day span tie the 1973 Miami Dolphins and the 2021 Green Bay Packers for the most in the NFL since 1935, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
That stretch includes a Monday Night Football game, an East Coast game, a trip to London, and four fourth-quarter comeback victories. Oh, and a short week on Thursday Night Football that saw Denver somehow escape with a win to...

If you guys have been reading these film reviews over the last couple of years (thank you, by the way), then you know that I have a brutal addiction to optimism. If you want proof just check out my article hyping up Audric Estime that I wrote relatively shortly before they cut him. It’s how I live life and it’s how I watch football. And how could I not be this way? I’ve had to suffer through the last 10 years of Denver football and I coach offensive line at a small school. If you don’t have optimism then you...
