The Denver Broncos had every opportunity on Sunday to advance to the Super Bowl, but bold decisions that didn’t work out wiped out early momentum, and that impact lingered the rest of the way.
Without Bo Nix, the Broncos’ Super Bowl aspirations froze on Sunday, and several moments from this game will leave a cold chill throughout the remainder of the offseason, as Denver will look to add some more weapons for their franchise quarterback.
Denver Broncos season ends in cold fashion as Patriots freeze them out in second half
Momentum is everything in the NFL, and one play on Sunday completely swung things as the Broncos failed to convert on a 4th and 1 in the second quarter, rather than kicking a field goal that would have made it 10-0 Denver. Instead, it swung the momentum entirely. The Patriots defense ended up getting the stop, and ultimately recovered a fumble two possessions later downfield that allowed them to creep back in.
Wil Lutz had a missed field goal right before halftime, and one of his late fourth-quarter kicks was blocked, which had a chance to tie the game. Ultimately, it boiled down to a short handful of plays making the difference, and without Nix, there was no Mile High Magic.
Denver’s defense came to play and got after Drake Maye, sacking him five times, but as the snow fell, the Broncos’ offense found themselves frozen out in the second half, only mustering 32 yards of offense in the second half, and they were unable to generate anything positive downfield in the elements.
Maye used his legs to ice the game, capping off a day that saw him rush for the Patriots’ only touchdown on 10 carries for 65 yards.
