Broncos Stun Giants with Historic Comeback
The Denver Broncos staged one of the most stunning comebacks in NFL history, rallying from a 19-point deficit in the fourth quarter to defeat the New York Giants 33-32 on Sunday.
Trailing 26-8 at halftime, the Broncos scored twice before being thwarted by a Justin Strnad interception. However, Bo Nix's seven-yard touchdown run, followed by RJ Harvey's two-yard catch and another Nix scoring play, set up Wil Lutz for a game-winning 39-yard field goal as time expired.
The Broncos' improbable comeback marked the longest in NFL history when trailing by 18 points or more with less than six minutes remaining. The previous record stood at 1,602 consecutive games won by teams leading by 18 points in the final six minutes.
Lutz's game-winner capped an incredible fourth quarter for Denver, during which they scored on five of six possessions and outscored their opponents 33-32. The Broncos' comeback was made all the more remarkable by the fact that they were blanked at home for the first time in their 66-year history.
New York's victory was marred by a disputed pass interference call on cornerback Riley Moss, which led to a touchdown and a subsequent ejection of coach Sean Payton. The Giants' loss marked their third straight defeat, while the Broncos improved to 5-2 and secured their fourth consecutive win overall.
In other games, Jalen Hurts threw for 326 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Philadelphia Eagles past the Minnesota Vikings 28-22, while Dak Prescott threw for three touchdowns to help the Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Commanders 44-22.

I was literally on the edge of my seat when they came back from being down by 19 points! The way Bo Nix just kept driving and scoring is still giving me life 
I also felt bad for Sean Payton, I don't think a PI call should be that harsh 
anyway, congrats to the Broncos on their historic win!
I mean, they were blanked at home for the first time in like, forever... that's some serious pressure. And can we talk about Bo Nix? 
What a player! Seven-yard TD run and two more scores before Wil Lutz nailed it with that 39-yrd field goal as time expired?! Chills, man! 
The Giants are having a tough season and now this loss to add to the pain. And what's up with all those disputed calls? That pass interference on Riley Moss was wild... 
Anyways, can't wait for the next game! 
I mean, I know they've got some talented players like Bo Nix and RJ Harvey, but man... that's just crazy. And can we talk about how epic Wil Lutz's game-winning field goal was? 
I was on the edge of my seat when he lined up for that 39-yarder! I'm so impressed by their coaching staff too - they must've had a genius game plan to come back from that kind of hole. The Giants are just having one of those tough seasons, huh?
