The Denver Broncos faced off against the Seattle Seahawks and came away with a narrow defeat, losing 26-20 in a challenging environment. The young Broncos struggled to perform, showcasing several disappointing individual performances throughout the game.
Bo Nix, making his debut as a rookie quarterback, had a particularly tough outing with a low grade, while the running backs had moments of success but faltered in the second half. The wide receiver room, filled with expectations, also failed to deliver against Seattle’s tough coverage, which stifled their opportunities.
Defensively, the Broncos' line experienced ups and downs, with some individuals standing out during particular stretches, but overall consistency remained a concern. The linebacker corps, which is crucial to the Broncos' success, particularly needs improvement moving forward.
