Bo Nix threw four touchdowns without an interception, and a third-quarter interception by Pat Surtain II off Jordan Love — with Green Bay leading by nine — flipped the game for good as the Denver Broncos beat the Green Bay Packers 34-26 at Empower Field at Mile High on December 14, 2025. The win clinched Denver a playoff berth and put the Broncos at 12-2 through their 11th consecutive victory. For the Packers, a torn ACL suffered by Micah Parsons on a non-contact play in the third quarter cast a shadow over everything else that afternoon.

Denver moved one game ahead of New England for the AFC’s No. 1 seed at 12-2, with nine of those 11 consecutive wins coming by one score. Green Bay dropped to 9-4-1, a half-game behind the NFC North-leading Bears heading into a Saturday road game in Chicago. The Packers’ playoff push would continue without Parsons, who had posted 12.5 sacks in his first season in Green Bay after arriving via a blockbuster trade from Dallas, becoming the only player in NFL history to record at least 12 sacks in each of his first five seasons.
I'm Sean L. Garcia, a Swedish-born American journalist based in Washington with over six years of experience reporting across local publications and digital media. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and have spent the better part of my career covering the full spectrum of news, from breaking world affairs and domestic politics to sports analysis, consumer technology, automotive industry developments, the business of entertainment, celebrity culture, gaming, health, and the cultural moments that define how people actually live. I launched Daily Info Magazine on April 05, 2026, because I wanted to build one publication where readers never have to go elsewhere, a destination backed by real reporting, proper sourcing, and an editorial team that takes accuracy seriously across every beat we cover. I serve as Editor-in-Chief and continue to report, write, and publish alongside our team of writers, researchers, and editors every single day.
