It’s week 6 of the NFL season and the New York Jets are in London, England to face the Denver Broncos. Kickoff is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. EDT.
The Jets have opened the 2025 season with five straight losses. The Jets offense has been erratic; sometimes good, sometimes terrible. The Jets defense has been uniformly and historically horrendous, getting the team into early deficits and rarely giving the team a decent chance to win. If the Jets don’t figure some things out on defense it won’t much matter what an undermanned offense is able to eke out on Sundays. Today’s game against the Broncos gives the Jets defense a chance to compete. The Broncos defense has been superb, but the Broncos offense has only been middling, with a strong running game but a subpar passing game. The Jets have had all kinds of problems defending against the pass. Perhaps this Broncos mediocre passing attack presents an opportunity for the Jets defense to begin to turn things around.
The Broncos come into this game with a 3-2 record. They have won two straight games and have given up just 20 points combined on defense in those two games. The Broncos pass defense has been outstanding this season, ranking 2nd in the NFL in passing touchdowns allowed, 4th in net yards per attempt, and 8th in passing yards allowed. Overall the Broncos defense is ranked 5th in the NFL in yards allowed and 2nd in points allowed. They lead the NFL in pressuring the quarterback and in sacks. This defense will present a huge challenge for a Jets offense that has had problems putting points on the board before garbage time this season.
It’s the Jets seeking their first victory of the 2025 season against the Broncos in London today. Enjoy the game everyone.
