Week 8 · 2025–26 season
Broncos
W 44-24 vs Cowboys · Oct 26, 2025
Misery Index · Euphoric
Broncos fans cashing in on the Cowboys' worst defense and letting themselves call B.Nix elite without irony.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
B.Nix's first-quarter pick to T.Bridges flickered the old anxieties, then R.Harvey ripped off a 40-yard touchdown and T.Franklin caught a 25-yard score and the afternoon turned into something Broncos fans aren't used to: a laugher against a name opponent. J.Franklin-Myers sacking Prescott for a 13-yard loss set the tone defensively, holding Dallas's offense in check. The vibes are loud, the swagger is back — now the trick is sustaining it past one cathartic Sunday.
What fans said
“Our D held “the best Offense in the League” to 22 points, 2 turnovers (should have been 3). Both sides of the ball executed at a high level. Impressed (finally)”
