Broncos Secure Fifth Consecutive Win Over Cowboys 27-10

The Denver Broncos hosted the Dallas Cowboys in a significant NFL Week 8 matchup at Empower Field at Mile High, where the Broncos aimed to secure their fifth consecutive win. Denver's offense, led by Bo Nix, faced early challenges including a costly interception, but rookie RJ Harvey's explosive 40-yard touchdown run helped the Broncos build a commanding lead. The Broncos' defense played a crucial role, applying heavy pressure on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and forcing multiple punts, despite losing star cornerback Pat Surtain II to injury. Dallas, led by Prescott and former Broncos running back Javonte Williams, struggled against Denver's stout defense and could not overcome the Broncos' momentum. The game highlighted contrasting team styles, with Denver relying on defensive strength and Dallas attempting to leverage their high-powered offense, although injuries and defensive lapses hindered Dallas. This contest was pivotal as Denver looked to solidify their position atop the AFC West, while Dallas sought to improve their .500 record in a season marked by inconsistency.
