Broncos Rally to Defeat Undefeated Eagles 21-17 in Denver Season Opener

The Philadelphia Eagles struggled with offensive inconsistency during their 21-17 loss to the Denver Broncos, marking the end of their 10-game winning streak at home. Despite a strong start with a 17-3 lead early in the fourth quarter, the Eagles' offense faltered, managing only one first down after a key touchdown pass to Saquon Barkley, and were hindered by multiple penalties that negated critical plays. Coaching, especially from Head Coach Nick Sirianni and Offensive Coordinator Kevin Patullo, has been questioned as the offense appeared disorganized and lacked a clear identity, deviating from their previously dominant power-running game. The Broncos, led by quarterback Bo Nix and a resilient defense featuring Nik Bonitto, capitalized late in the game with a fourth-quarter rally to secure the upset win. Denver's offensive line suffered a setback with the injury of left guard Ben Powers, but the team still managed to execute a successful two-point conversion late in the game to take the lead. The Eagles' defensive performance was strong in the first half, but the offense's inability to maintain momentum and close out the game ultimately led to their defeat.
