Broncos Bounce Back with a 38-6 Victory Over the Falcons
The Denver Broncos dominated the Atlanta Falcons, securing a decisive 38-6 victory at Empower Field at Mile High on November 17, 2024. The win marked a strong bounce-back for the Broncos after a narrow loss to the Kansas City Chiefs the previous week.
Rookie quarterback Bo Nix led the Broncos with an impressive performance, completing 28 of 33 passes for 307 yards and four touchdowns. Nix’s contributions included touchdown passes to tight end Nate Adkins, wide receiver Marvin Mims, and rookie Troy Franklin. He also connected with Lil’Jordan Humphrey for a 41-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, showcasing his growing confidence and leadership.
In contrast, the Falcons struggled offensively, with quarterback Kirk Cousins finishing 16 of 25 for 162 yards and an interception. Atlanta’s offense was hampered by penalties and missed opportunities in the red zone, limiting them to just two field goals by kicker Younghoe Koo from 41 and 51 yards.
Key moments in the game included a controversial call in the third quarter that favored the Broncos, allowing them to extend their lead after a fourth-down pass that was initially ruled incomplete was overturned upon review. This decision helped the Broncos solidify their dominance in the game.
Defensively, the Broncos exhibited a strong performance, pressuring Cousins throughout the game and holding the Falcons to only six points. With this victory, the Broncos improved to 6-5 on the season, while the Falcons fell to 6-5, but remained in the playoff contention within the NFC South.
As the Falcons approach their bye week, head coach Raheem Morris will need to reassess his team’s strategy and performance, looking to address the issues that have surfaced in their recent games. Meanwhile, the Broncos continue to build momentum as they aim for a playoff spot in the competitive AFC landscape.
