Bo Nix threw two touchdowns and rushed for another, and JK Dobbins rushed for 101 yards as the Denver Broncos cruised to a 28-3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football on Denver7.

Denver

The Denver Broncos defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 28-3 in a commanding performance at Empower Field. The Broncos, coming off two narrow losses, delivered over 500 yards of total offense and saw strong contributions from running backs J.K. Dobbins and R.J. Harvey. The defense limited the Bengals to just three points and recorded three sacks, reflecting a focused effort to rebound from previous games.

With this win, the Broncos move to a 2-2 record, tying with the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West standings and sitting just one game behind the division-leading Chargers. The team emphasized the importance of closing out the game in the fourth quarter, a challenge in earlier matches, and will look to carry this momentum into their next contest.

Broncos beat Bengals 28-3

Let's go live to Empower Field a mile high. Brady King is there with the postgame story. And Brady, this is just what the Broncos needed to get this season going in the right direction. Yeah, Lionel, after back-to-back heartbreaking losses, the Broncos needed a win, and not just any win, but a dominant, massive 25-point win. Yes, it was a little sloppy at times, but overall, I saw progress from this team. I mean, over 500 yards of total offense, faux Knicks with career highs. They were able to run the ball. Both J.K. Dobbins and R.J. Harvey looked fantastic, and they got off to that fast start. And of course, that defense holding them to just three points, coming up with three sacks as well. Pastor Tan just told me in the locker room that the defense had a big chip on their shoulder after the past two games going into this game, and I would say that is pretty obvious. Yeah, I mean, we're due for one. Obviously, like you said, these two games were easily winnable for us, and we felt like we let it by, and we let them have it, but it was good to bounce back tonight in front of the home crowd. The thing that we're gonna take away as an offense is that we were able to put this game away in the fourth quarter. That's something we have not done as an offense the last two games, that were right there, right in front of us to take and to win. So I think that's some good growth and development from our offense to put this game away tonight. But it's huge, any win in the league's momentum, and it's a short week, so we don't have much time to think about it, and we're gonna be in Philly soon, so it's an important week. We have to get back to the basics. Well, this was obviously a must win, and I did predict a 21-point win, but hey, I will take a 25-point win any day. The Broncos are now two and two, tied with the Chiefs, and Broncos country is going home happy. I'd say that's a solid Monday night football out here. Reporting live at Empower Field at Mile High, I'm Brady King. Lionel, I'll send it back to you. You picked it, Brady, you're the winner. Your prediction was closest to the hole. All right, yeah, it's gonna be a short week, going to Philly for a Sunday morning meeting with the 4-0 Eagles, but the Broncos are gonna take some momentum with them. And again, two and two is so much better than one and three, and in the AFC West, Brady just said it, Broncos tied with the two and two Chiefs, and they're only one game back at the first place, three and one Chargers.
