Broncos Seek Fourth Straight Win Against Resurgent Giants
The Denver Broncos will look to continue their recent hot streak when they host the New York Giants in a Week 7 matchup at Empower Field. After a slow start, the Broncos have won three consecutive games to climb to 4-2 on the season, while the Giants have shown signs of life with a 2-4 record.
Key Moments
The Broncos have bounced back impressively from their 0-2 start, winning on the road against the Raiders, Chiefs, and most recently the Titans. Quarterback Bo Nix has steadied the offense, throwing for 832 yards, 7 touchdowns, and just 2 interceptions over the past three games.
Meanwhile, the Giants have found a spark with their rookie duo of quarterback Jaxson Dart and running back Cam Skattebo. Dart has thrown for 1,432 yards and 9 scores, while Skattebo has rushed for 482 yards and 4 touchdowns. However, the Giants will be shorthanded, as several key players have been ruled out or are questionable due to injuries.
Player Impact
Broncos edge rusher Jonathon Cooper has been a disruptive force, recording 4 sacks and 7 QB hits in the last three games. On the other side, Giants defensive linemen Dexter Lawrence and Leonard Williams will look to pressure Nix and slow down Denver's offense.
The health of the Broncos' offensive line will also be crucial, as they've been dealing with injuries up front. If they can protect Nix, he should have opportunities to find his talented receiving corps of Courtland Sutton, Jerry Jeudy, and rookie Pat Bryant.
TL;DR
- The surging Broncos (4-2) host the resurgent Giants (2-4) in Week 7
- Denver has won 3 straight, led by QB Bo Nix's strong play
- Giants rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo have provided a spark, but the team is banged up
- Broncos' pass rush and offensive line health will be key factors in the game
