London Showdown: Can Winless Jets Snap Broncos’ Grip in Week Six Thriller?

Denver’s defence has grit, and Bo Nix? Man, the kid’s calm under pressure—that much I truly believe. But here’s the kicker: can they stand tall against a top-tier squad firing on all cylinders? Last Sunday’s Eagles game? Not exactly Super Bowl material, if you ask me. The Broncos aren’t jaw-dropping—yet. They’re cruising just above average, which in their division is no small feat. The trick now? Keep that momentum alive. They’ve got a laser focus on what they do best: pounding the ground game. That’s exactly how they need to take on the Jets at Tottenham this weekend. Get ready for a JK Dobbins showcase. Curious to dig deeper? LEARN MORE.

I believe in Denver’s defence, in Bo Nix’s tenacity and composure. But are they good enough to go against an elite team at its best? Because that was not a Super Bowl performance by the Eagles last Sunday.

Right now, I don’t think the Broncos are incredible. They’re working above average, which is a good place to be in their division. All they need to do is maintain this trajectory.

They’re really good at leaning into their strength, which is running the ball, and that’s exactly what they should do against the New York Jets at Tottenham. It’s going to be the JK Dobbins show, essentially.
