Broncos fans went from decade-high optimism to wanting to die in 60 minutes, calling it B.Nix's worst game yet.

What happened

The E.Engram touchdown from B.Nix in the first quarter feels like it happened in a different game — everything after was K.Walker gashing the defense, capped by his 60-yard touchdown run in the third that effectively ended it. B.Jones's interception offered a brief window, and the offense promptly did nothing with it. Fans are calling it one of the worst watches in recent memory, and the tape doesn't offer much of a counterargument.

  • “this chiefs team is not good. It’s Kenneth Walker and friends with Demon Spags. They’re gonna win 7 games, and they just bent the Broncos over a barrel and showed them the 50 states.”
