Studs and duds from Broncos’ 26-21 win over Panthers
We take a look back at the studs and duds of yet another wild win by the Broncos.
Key points
- Stud: Turnovers This game turned on its head in a crucial sequence in the third quarter; it was Broncos backup safety and 2025 All-Pro Devon Key who alertly (and nonchalantly) snagged a Bryce Young pass in the end zone for one of the most incredible interceptions you'll ever see.
- If Waddle is not healthy after Denver's bye, Bryant will be a force to be reckoned with--if the Broncos don't use him as a potential bargaining chip in trade negotiations.
- Denver went through the seemingly usual ups and downs of being ahead and behind, as well as the thrilling last-second win made possible by the defense.
Stud: Going 7-2 into the bye The Broncos, despite their heart attack-inducing ways, have found a way to make it through the most difficult part of their schedule at 4-2, and after a loss, go on a five-game win streak to close out the first half of the year.
The Denver Broncos (7-2) defeated the Carolina Panthers (3-5) in a 26-21 victory on Sunday afternoon.
Additional details
- Bryant was dynamic in the open field, catching the ball and running after the catch, leading all Broncos receivers with 56 yards on four catches.
- All those games, especially Buffalo, may determine the AFC's top seed and where the Broncos lie in the AFC hierarchy.
- Despite having a rushing attack that only mustered 82 total rushing yards, the Broncos seem to have found their No.
- Their latest great escape came in a 26-21 victory over the Carolina Panthers in Week 9 of the season.
- After that, the Broncos have a bye in Week 10 before hosting the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11 on Nov.
