Broncos Clinch Playoffs With 11th Straight Win as Surtain’s INT, Nix’s 4 TDs Topple Packers

An 11-game surge has made Denver the AFC front-runner.

Overview

  • Denver rallied to beat Green Bay 34-26, improving to 12-2 after erasing a 23-14 third-quarter deficit with three straight touchdown drives.
  • Cornerback Patrick Surtain II read a repeat formation and intercepted Jordan Love deep downfield, a turning-point play that flipped momentum.
  • Bo Nix threw for 302 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions, powering the second-half comeback in his most efficient stretch of the day.
  • The victory clinched a postseason berth with three regular-season games left, putting Denver in strong position for the AFC’s No. 1 seed.
  • Denver’s rise rests on a top-tier defense that has piled up 58 sacks this season, while Surtain cautioned the team is “not a finished product.”
