The Cowboys are playing short-handed on defense, with seven players out of their secondary, including cornerback Trevon Diggs and safeties Malik Hooker, Donovan Wilson, and Juanyeh Thomas. The impact is evident, as Dallas has allowed four plays of at least 20 yards, including two touchdowns.
Currently, the Broncos lead 14-3. Troy Franklin delivered the latest explosive play for Denver, scoring on a 25-yard reception while being wide open. Earlier, running back RJ Harvey put the team on the board with a 40-yard touchdown run.
Despite an early interception thrown by Bo Nix on the Broncos’ first drive, the team quickly bounced back, executing a five-play, 74-yard touchdown drive followed by a four-play, 62-yard touchdown drive. Nix’s stats so far include 5-of-7 passing for 88 yards, with one touchdown and one interception.
Additionally, the Broncos have been effective on the ground, rushing for another 71 yards to complement their passing efforts.
