Nik Bonitto

The Broncos have won 10 straight games and they have not lost at home this season, but the combination of those things isn't enough for oddsmakers to install them as favorites to beat the Packers in Denver on Sunday.

The Broncos have won 10 straight games and they have not lost at home this season, but the combination of those things isn't enough for oddsmakers to install them as favorites to beat the Packers in Denver on Sunday.

It was the classic up-and-down game for Nix, who made some spectacular throws that were overshadowed by remarkably poor decisions. A seemingly mundane 13-7 game at the half quickly shifted gears as each team found paint on their first possessions of the second half, made more interesting by a fourth-quarter Nix interception thrown directly into the lap of veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner. Nix would handle business in the extra frame, taking just five plays to march 76 yards for the go-ahead touchdown, but he watched from the sideline as the Commanders scored to answer. Nik Bonitto sealed the game with a deflected pass on the two-point try to send the team to their ninth-straight win and into a tie with the Patriots for the best record in the league through 13 weeks. Nix and the Broncos get a solid matchup against the reeling Raiders in Week 14 before a true test against the Packers at home a week later.

The Broncos outlasted Washington 27 26 in overtime, with Bo Nix leading two late touchdown drives and RJ Harvey scoring twice including the OT winner before Nik Bonitto broke up the Commanders two-point attempt to seal it.

Washington got a fourth-down TD in OT, but Denver's Nik Bonitto batted down Marcus Mariota's final pass on a two-point conversion attempt to seal the victory.
