After back-to-back overtime losses, the Denver Broncos will look to right the flagging ship at home against the 4-2 New York Jets in Week 7.
The Jets have been a surprising team across the NFL landscape, coming into Denver fresh off a beatdown of the Green Bay Packers. Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett looks to have better luck than his former team.
During their histories, Denver holds an all-time record of 22-16-1 against New York.
In Week 3 of the 2021 season, the Broncos pitched their only shutout of the year against the Jets, a 26-0 rout. Denver picked off then-rookie New York quarterback Zach Wilson twice, with safety Justin Simmons sealing the victory with an interception late in the fourth quarter.
Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater went 19-of-25 for 235 yards and no touchdowns. Denver was aided by rushing touchdowns from running backs Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams in the victory.
The Broncos come into this meeting with one of the worst red zone offenses in the NFL and one of the top defenses. Can they fix the offensive woes this week? Tune in Sunday!
