Broncos did something no team in the NFL has done since 2018 in win over Eagles

The Denver Broncos achieved something many considered impossible going into Week 5: defeating the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles. They did it by a 21-17 score. They began the game leading 3-0, then the Eagles scored 17 points, and Denver responded with 18 unanswered points to secure the win.

Denver started slowly on both sides of the ball, despite scoring first. Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith was cooking, and following the Wil Lutz field goal, they had five straight punts. Not only with punts, they had lots of penalties, specifically 12 for 121 yards.

It wasn't until the fourth quarter that the Broncos started to get in rhythm, but they still managed to make some (recent) history.
