EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Justin Strnad had a day to remember. After his first career sack came on his first defensive snap since 2021, though, the Broncos inside linebacker’s mind was anywhere but on his own achievements. Strnad grew up near Tampa, Fla. and has family and friends all over the area impacted in recent days by Hurricane Helene. He had dozens of those folks at Raymond James Stadium a week ago — maybe close to 100, he estimated after the game — and then watched helplessly from The Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia as the hurricane made landfall and impacted his home area heavily. “My house took some damage,” said Strnad, whose family lives in Dunedin.

  • Broncos QB Bo Nix: Rain, wet footballs impacted first half in which he threw for minus-7 yards
    Denver Post, Sunday - 09/29/2024 - 05:39 PM

    EAST RUTHERFORD, N. J. — When the rain finally ran out Sunday, the Broncos offense found some life. Denver head coach Sean Payton said he thought the steady precipitation caught both teams by surprise. “I don’t know that either team expected the weather to impact the game like it did that much in the first half,” Payton said after the Broncos’ 10-9 win at MetLife Stadium after a day-plus of near-constant drizzle and rain. Quarterback Bo Nix, who regularly seemed to fight his grip on the football early in the game, agreed. “Yeah, when it rains like that for that long period of time, it’s hard to kind of, I guess, get new, dry footballs out there,” the rookie said after Denver’s 10-9 win.

    OFFENSE — D Denver mounted an 11-play, 87-yard touchdown drive in the third quarter that featured the team’s first three third-down conversions of the day and finished with an 8-yard touchdown pass from Bo Nix to Courtland Sutton. Outside of that, though, it was tough sledding. The Broncos started slow offensively and just got worse through the first half.

  • Broncos Four Downs: Bo Nix rebounds from historically bad first half with first career TD pass
    Denver Post, Sunday - 09/29/2024 - 04:32 PM

    Initial thoughts from the Broncos’ 10-9 win over the New York Jets: Un-Bo-Lievable first half: Denver has had 14 starting quarterbacks since Peyton Manning retired following the 2015 season. None played a worse first half than Bo Nix. He is a rookie. The situation demands context and patience. But it also requires basic competence.
