Broncos Seek Consistency as Jets Pursue Elusive First Win in London
11 Oct
Summary
- Broncos rallied from 14-point deficit to beat Super Bowl champions
- Jets' defense has no takeaways, half their points scored while trailing
- Broncos' pass rush to test Jets' NFL-worst offensive line
As the NFL heads to London for Week 6, the Denver Broncos (3-2) and the New York Jets (0-5) are on opposite trajectories. The Broncos are riding high after rallying from a 14-point deficit to hand the Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles their first loss of the 2025 season. Quarterback Bo Nix led the comeback, throwing for 127 yards and a touchdown in the fourth quarter.
In contrast, the Jets under head coach Aaron Glenn are still searching for their first win. In fact, Glenn's team is the first in Jets history to start 0-5, and they are the first team since at least 1940 to go the first five games without a single takeaway. As a result, over half of the Jets' points have come when trailing by 13 or more points.
The matchup between the Broncos' stifling pass rush and the Jets' porous offensive line could be the deciding factor. Denver's defense, led by edge rusher Nik Bonitto, leads the NFL in sacks and quarterback pressures. They will look to overwhelm Jets quarterback Justin Fields, who has never won a start when his team has allowed 21 or more points.
With the Broncos seeking consistency from Nix and the Jets desperate for their first win, the London showdown promises to be an intriguing clash of two teams headed in opposite directions.
