Following their 33-10 victory over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football, the Denver Broncos have now won their last three road games.
Thursday’s 23-point victory marked Denver’s fourth-highest margin of victory in a road game since 2010, and the team’s biggest blowout since a 45-10 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in 2018.
The Broncos’ three-straight road wins also mark the team’s longest road winning streak since their Super Bowl season in 2015 when Denver won four road games in a row. The team had a five-game road winning streak in 2011 and their all-time record was eight consecutive road wins from 2012-2013.
“I thought it was a good team win,” Broncos coach Sean Payton said after Thursday’s victory. “We did a lot of things well tonight that we statistically talk about. You are always adjusting and getting used to the short week schedule when you are at home and on the road. We talked all week about a fast start. I thought they handled the mental part of it. It’s really easy to complain on a short week and pretty soon no one cares. I thought our preparation for those two days were good.”
Up next for Denver is a home game against the Carolina Panthers in Week 8 followed by back-to-back road games against the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs. If the road streak holds up through that tough two-game stretch, the Broncos will be taken seriously across the league.
