Denver Broncos Defeat Buccaneers 26-7

The Denver Broncos achieved their first win of the season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, dominating the game 26-7, which eliminated nearly 30% of entries in Yahoo Sports' survivor pool, as many had picked the Buccaneers to win. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix led the charge, completing 18 of 23 passes for 169 yards and one rushing touchdown, showcasing resilience despite a struggling rushing attack. The Broncos' defense was also instrumental, recording seven sacks and an interception, effectively shutting down the Buccaneers' offense after a brief touchdown in the second quarter. With this win, the Broncos have faced significant eliminations in survivor pools over the past weeks, following similar upsets in earlier games. Coach Sean Payton will need to address the team's running game support for Nix as they prepare for their next match against the New York Jets. The victory marks a significant turnaround for the Broncos after two prior losses this season, sparking hope among fans.
