Broncos Stock Up, Stock Down: Week 10 vs. Panthers

Key Points:

• The Denver Broncos secured their 5th consecutive win, improving to 7-2 on the season, with a dramatic 4th-quarter comeback against the Carolina Panthers highlighted by Devon Key’s game-changing interception and Nik Bonitto’s clutch strip-sack.
• Quarterback Bo Nix's performance was solid with 237 yards and 2 touchdowns, though he had a late interception; rookie running back Jonah Coleman emerged as the lead back, while JK Dobbins' role diminished significantly.
• Wide receivers Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant, and Troy Franklin showed strong performances, with Bryant scoring the game-winning touchdown after returning from injury; Jaylen Waddle was sidelined early due to a concussion.
• The offensive line struggled, particularly Ben Powers and Luke Wattenberg, allowing pressure that hindered the running game, while the defensive line and secondary had mixed performances, with notable contributions from Nik Bonitto and Ja’Quan McMillian.
• Safety Devon Key’s interception and JL Skinner’s increased playing time were key defensive highlights, while special teams players Wil Lutz and Jeremy Crawshaw continued to perform reliably.
