The New York Giants are starting to look alive again. Can they breathe at 5,280 feet, though? After their most complete performance of the season last Thursday night, the Giants now head into the thin air of Empower Field for a clash with the surging Denver Broncos. The Broncos also have one of the league’s nastiest defenses. Now, the Giants will need all the oxygen they can muster to stay competitive.
The Giants are starting to find their rhythm. After a convincing 34-17 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 6, New York is brimming with confidence. However, the road ahead doesn’t get any easier. The Broncos have won three straight and boast a defensive a unit that leads the NFL in sacks (30) and allows just 15.8 points per game. For the Giants, it’s another chance to prove their resurgence is real.
Denver’s defense has carried the team through its winning streak. They most recently notched out a 13-11 win over the New York Jets in London. The Broncos have been a model of resilience under head coach Sean Payton. They just thrive in close games and find ways to generate pressure from all angles. With linebacker Dre Greenlaw returning from injured reserve to bolster an already elite front seven, Denver looks even more dangerous. The all-time series between the two teams is deadlocked at 7-7. Sunday’s meeting will be a battle between an ascending Giants squad and a Broncos team intent on solidifying its status as a legitimate AFC contender.

Here we will look at and discuss some bold predictions for the game between the Giants and the Broncos in Week 7 of the 2025 NFL season.
Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is coming off the most complete performance of his young career. He threw for 195 yards and a touchdown while adding another score on the ground in the win over Philadelphia. His dual-threat ability and composure have stabilized the Giants’ offense. This has leaned on a balanced mix of run and pass. However, this week’s opponent presents a completely different challenge.
Denver’s pass rush has been suffocating opponents. They are averaging five sacks per game, and the secondary has been nearly as impressive. It has allowed opposing quarterbacks to complete just 58.3 percent of their passes. Dart will need to make quick reads and rely on short passes to avoid turnovers. Of course, sustaining long drives at altitude against this front could prove difficult. Expect him to stay efficient and mistake-free, but with limited explosive plays. Dart finishes under 200 passing yards for the second straight week as Denver’s pressure dictates the game flow.
Wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson has quietly become one of the Giants’ most reliable playmakers. Against the Eagles, he caught six of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown....
