DENVER -- Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton has long said an impactful run game and a force-the-issue defense can be "a quarterback's best friends."
Broncos QB Bo Nix needed every bit of help from those besties Sunday, as Denver was able to open the 2025 season with a 20-12 win over the Tennessee Titans at Empower Field at Mile High despite three turnovers from its second-year QB.
"It's the best feeling when you've got a good defense, just over and over they kind of got us out of a jam throughout the game," Nix said.
