Broncos vs. Jets Prediction, Picks for NFL London Game
Denver makes the 4,600-miles flight for their fourth trip to London, marking their first since a 2022 win against Jacksonville. The Broncos knocked the Eagles from the unbeaten ranks thanks in part to QB Bo Nix and his fourth-quarter heroics, when the Broncos ripped off 18 unanswered points to win 21-17, improving to 3-2 on the season. This was their first win against the Eagles in Philly since 1986 — when John Elway was the QB.
After getting blown out by the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5, the winless Jets are desperate to come away victorious this Sunday. Who knows, maybe a change of continent will help spark this offense — New York has scored just 15 first-half points in their last four games.
Denver Broncos
- Denver may be without pass rusher Jonah Elliss, who missed two consecutive practices with rib and shoulder injuries — rookie fourth-round draft pick Que Robinson could step up in his place if needed.
- The Broncos were 1-112 in franchise history when trailing by 14 or more points on the road entering the fourth quarter. Now, that record stands at 2-112.
- Nix was electric in the fourth quarter, completing 90% of his throws, leading a pair of TD drives and the 2-point conversion to win the game.
New York Jets
- New York has been outscored 73-15 in the first half across their last four games.
- The Jets' once-stout defense lost its stoutness — they give up 31.4 points per game, 31st in the NFL.
- Their last win in London was a 27-14 victory over the Miami Dolphins at Wembley Stadium.
