Broncos could face a major problem with Patriots offense in AFC title game

The Denver Broncos host the New England Patriots in the AFC title game, and the neat thing with this playoff rivalry is that the Pats have never beaten the Broncos in Denver in the playoffs. Hopefully, that trend continues on Sunday.

Obviously, the Broncos are going to have to win this game without Bo Nix, the starting QB. Nix broke his ankle near the end of overtime and is going to miss the rest of the season. Fortunately, the injury should not impact Nix for the start of the 2026 season.

All in all, the Broncos are going to be able to win this game, but it's going to be more of a team effort than any game this year, and it's going to be the biggest game of the season up to this point.
