Some might say the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were severely undermanned on defense and consequently fell into the NFL version of a Venus fly trap. Even so, the Denver Broncos went about their business with a notable aggression that had been conspicuously absent in the opening two weeks.

The Denver Broncos vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers game will be played today. Baker Mayfield is undefeated in the 2024-5 NFL regular season after the Buccaneers Week 2 victory over the Detroit Lions. The Broncos suffered a humbling 13-6 loss the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, the new home of Broncos former quarterback Russell Wilson.

It took slightly longer than perhaps he had hoped it would, but the Denver Broncos won their first game with rookie Bo Nix at quarterback Sunday. And the visibly happy, relieved 24-year-old was asked if he let it all soak in a bit.
