Their loss to the Chargers was similarly on a game-winning field goal as time expired. Both teams were locked up at 20, and Cameron Dicker was able to give the Chargers the win with a 43-yard field goal.
The Broncos' offense was mostly efficient. Bo Nix threw for 153 yards and a touchdown, and J.K. Dobbins had 83 yards on 11 carries and a touchdown.
Justin Herbert cooled off a little after starting 2025 with a bang. He had 300 passing yards with a touchdown and an interception. He also had six rushing yards.
